Cycling and Golf
Any multi-sport athletes than can offer some advice? My principal (competitive) sport is golf, for which I practice and train like crazy. I love going for rides though as well. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to balance all of this in a short (Canadian) summer, without getting burnt out? Thanks!

This model pictured is a different frame than the original ones I've seen. Which also came in an electric version.
I'm not sure these are even still being sold as I couldn't seem to add one to the cart. But I'm sure similar could be found or built.

Sorry, I should have clarified.... the golf course is a 5 minute walk from my place, so not much point in cycling to it! Thanks for your responses!

Then use your bike for errands, grocery getting, and such things. That way you can both cycle and do your golf without having to do two "sports" and set time aside for it.
