Hot diggity doggity!

"Bike Log" 2012:  I got my Exerpeutic Foldable Semi-Recumbant Bike set up and my first workout in!  This is a REALLY cool exercise bike as it puts the work on the quads intead of the side hip muscles and bursa - which is where I got inflammation because of not conditioning up for real bike riding last year.  I LOVE it! 

I went 12 minutes, 2.5 miles, on setting 1 as I am trying not to be stupid again and do too much too soon!  AND I did it in the comfort of my own living room watching TV this morning!  It kept my heart rate around 130 which is good for starting after 9 months off from riding!  YAY!  Btw, did I mention it takes up a tiny amount of space and collapses down to roll into a closet when guests come?  WooHOO!!!

P.S.  Here's the website for it...I must have gotten one of the last ones at Walmart online as they are now out of stock online.  You can get it elsewhere, however.  Don't be put off by Amazon's one review.  This is a GREAT bike...so far!
