Yes, I think I am in better shape. I still have 20 pounds of "penalty weight" to take off, or I'd probably be doing even better, but... it's a huge improvement. I expect that when I start biking again I'll be able to go a lot further and faster.

Definitely--especially if you move to Colorado and you bike up the mountains! :)

Heh, I think I'll stick to my feet in the mountains. I love hiking, though, and I'd very much like to learn to ski...
