DH & I broke down and bought new bicycles yesterday -- trail bikes. We thought it would be a good way to get exercise. We did our first ride this morning ... 10 miles on a nice path. It was a fairly easy way to start out and a fun activity to do together.

I gotta say, "My tushie is SORE." I know I just have to gut it out the next few days and ride through the soreness.

Good stuff! My husband refuses to run but will bike so this spring/summer we should be on trails days I am not running.

I don't look forward to the sore tushie either, that's the worst part of starting biking.

Neat. I rode a bike when we were in town and the land around me was a lot flatter. There are too many big hills here but they are fun and good exercise.

This is one of my goals.....to be back on a bike again and able to ride! I am impressed!

Some people invest in shorts with padding for the butt and I have heard they are worth the price! Something to consider........

10 miles is great Kay. I bet your tushie is going to be really SORE!!

We rode around Callaway Gardens and Jekyll Island(both here in Georgia) several years ago and it was fun. Last time I tried to do the Callaway ride, I had to quit because I just couldn't do it. I need to try again now!!

Enjoy your bikes!!
