    :jawdrop: not being one for the gym but due to a health issue, I need to Exercise daily. Walking is OK and as we all know good for you but in this heat, it can be a problem that may create other problems.
    So I bought a Push Bike( Bicycle)
    On these Roads with Mad Drivers I hear some will say but over the last few days, I have found so many inner roads of fairly Good Quality that lead all over the Place. This Morning I did about 20 kms and visited 3 pretty large Barangays and only crossed one main? Road, That was Larena Drive Going from Taclobo to Canduay.
    For those that find walking hard going, Just a heads up on what I have found to be Interesting and Gives me the Exercise I need with the right amount of Pain to know it is doing some good.
    I had forgotten just how many muscles you use in riding a bike, which I have not done in earnest for many many years.
    In fact the last time I used one regularly was in 1986 or thereabouts when our Aircraft was Housed some 2 kms away from the main Hangers, at RAF St Athens in Wales. I rode it to the Craft and a ground Crew rode it back to base, On our return he (or another) would ride it down to Dispersal point, come rain or Shine ( Snow excluded or Thunderstorms)
    It sure gives you an appetite and now I can see the Difference in my eating habits which can only be good.
    So my friends if the Gym is not for you but you need Daily Exercise, Give a bike some thought![​IMG]

    I got set up at a bout 3.500 peso

    You can spend Far More but not needed. Hypermart 17.000+ for a similar thing.?
