Getting into bicycling actually improved my social life because I met other cyclists who I ride with from time to time.
Great to see someone evolving into a social butterfly because of their carfree lifestyle. There are many similar activities in Des Moines. For example, there's a Steak Night Ride, which would be about 22 miles RT from my house. Bunch of cyclists devoted to beer and steak.
However, I'm trying to cut back on my steak intake. Not to mention beer.
