I agree they are all good suggestions, but it’s hard to get too much exercise with a wife, and 2 kids ages 2 and 4.

I was going to head over to Walmart tonight to look at bikes and a little ‘kiddie carrier’ to pull behind the bike.

Has anybody had any luck with bike riding? What about in the winter?

Thanks again for all these good suggestions.

I do a lot of bike riding. The only real problem with bike riding is there’s no impact (exercise impact that is). Impact is your friend, it encourages your body to throw nutrients at your bones which helps keep away osteoporosis (yes we guys need to worry about that too, not as much as women but it’s still a threat). So you’ve got to make sure you’re getting some impact, even if it’s just walking and hour or so a week.

I live in Tucson so winter tends to actually be a better time to ride than summer.
