Back again

After a hiatus of about a decade, it is good to be back. The bike is hanging in the garage, dusty and in need of an upgrade . . . desperately. In the last 2.5 years, I have become extremely obese, having gained about 100 lbs and now weighing in at over 320 lbs. This was in large part due to a conscious life choice due to pressure on my time in which something had to give, and I made the decision to let that something be my health. Having now seen my way through the challenge that occupied so much of my time, it is now time to redirect those efforts. So here I am. It will be a long haul, and I am in no hurry. I would rather do it right, working on perfecting form while dropping weight to put a lighter load on my body, and then move onto events. Patience has never been a virtue of mine, but although my patience has not necessarily increased with age, perhaps my wisdom has.
