Did my first attempt at true winter biking today. We got about 6 inches of snow here yesterday and we were still getting flurries as of 11:00 this morining (It appears to have subsided now).Needless to say it was an interesting trip in!

What I got in trade was a ride in with a view of the sun rising over the lake and the clouds spreading a gorgeous red hue over the whole skyline of the city. This has been a week of great rides so far...Tuesday, December 30th 2003
Hi,I have been on this for a couple of weeks and have learned quite a bit about what I am eating and where my calories are really going. It truly is amazing how much you really can eat if you stay away from crap.
My initial goal (meaning the first couple weeks) is being more aware of what I eat and the calorie costs involved. I really like this website because it 's the first that I have seen that really has an exhaustive food database. We have alot of choices here in chicago. A lot...
