Ok so Im kinda new to this workout thing again as its been over 3 years since I've been able to do anything physical thanks to an injury in the Marine Corps. So I got back on my mountain bike 2 weeks ago, rode every day of the week and half of last week puting over 40 miles in at blankets, got back on the road bike yesterday for 10 miles in 35 min in the hills so im starting to get going at a decent pace. I've already down to 238 from 250 something in about 2 week. WOOHOO my wife is extremely happy to see this working out for me again. {toast}

Mountain biking burns serious calories! The new job has really cut into my mountain bike times but I hope to get back to normal in another week or 2.

My mountain biking has taken a serious blow due to the kids having soccer 3-4 nights a week and my wife teaching again at night. So I am lucky to get 2 days a week now. >:( Everything I have seen as far as calories being burned for mountain biking is crazy. My usual 12 mile loop burns over 1000 calories. But if you are puss footing it, then less. I have 1 speed on the trails, all out. I started P90X months back and did really well but have since put it on hold for family stuff. Dang tired lately since I am not on a schedule anymore. ballchain

They still give out the chips. My wife was handling all the registration stuff and she did not get them for some reason. I was parking the car in the sea of thousands of cars. I know now to get the chip for the next race.
