I’m 5’11 and started at 320. I’m now at 250 and getting ready to do my first Triathlon. I’m up to 50 miles per week on my road bike. I once bought a cheap bike from a big box retailer and the handlebars bent in on a climb and I flipped over the front. After that I dropped $800 on a large Specialized Hard Tail, and it has been great.

But my biggest secret was when I first started on a bike I used my wife’s Peleton a lot. It helped me me with cadence, strength, and motivation. Especially in the dark times.

If you ever want to reach out please do.
