Interesting topic; I approach biking rather casually (I bike mostly to keep up with my sons) but I do find that with combined rowing and biking, I am losing back flexibility and getting stiffer in general.

At the time I supported my rowing habit by majoring in physics. My mortgage now has me on the hampster-wheel of software engineering. <br /><br />Off-hours I ...

They were innovative, they were lightweight, they were all the rage, and those playing cards gave you a nice direct breeze while you pulled your brains...
