Weight and Bicycling

Today is the first time I recall weighing since my main computer died a while back. 280. That puts me up about 35 pounds in a year. The suit I wore to my almost 17 year old little sister's QuinceaƱera is too snug now. Ug.

Of course, had I gained these 35 pounds on top of my high of 389 I'd really be in rough shape. It's good I lost 145 pounds before gaining 35 back but it's still past time for me to get back to regular work outs and calorie discipline. 240 extra calories a day and inconsistent workouts for a year add up...

So, I rode my bike to work today. The route I took was about four miles. While riding past East High, I stood up on the pedals to accelerate quickly and one bent. Luckily, the pedal didn't bust off until I was four blocks away from the office. Anyone know a bike shop that does house calls?
