    Good day, I ordered a bicycle I haven't had one for years now and this is the perfect time to get one. I even bought this thing that measures my pulse and so forth. I used to be a health nut and sports freak, taking it to the science but in the last couple of years... ohmandudewtf! So now I'm getting me a bike. I'll start logging my functions again. I got this gym membership as well but it's for another city where I used to live so I see if I can have ti transferred or not.

          What kind of bike? And what make/model is the bike computer that you bought?
          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

            well it isn't really a bike computer, it's a .. what do you call them.. heart rate monitors? It's got all kinds of functions I like. Separate from the bike.

            The bike I got was this Kuwahara cross bike, suitable for streets as well. I had a Kuwahara before and I really liked it, but it got stolen Can you believe it? From home as well, it was in the closed backyard, and some punk came in and stole it, carried it away. It was maybe 15 years ago but I'm still pissed off about it. I will hurt the person who did it if it ever turns out somewhere.

              Does it give you average/min/max cadence, average speeds, trip time, etc.?

                Yeah. Not sure about average speed though. Why? Are you trying to sell me something?

                    I'm paid poorly but I'm still not a complete loser.

                      Nah, just interested. I got one too about a year ago. Pretty fancy, but I haven't used the heart rate monitor.

                        From what I've heard about these Nordic countries, on an after-tax basis, you probably get paid better than him.

                            I got it because when I worked out seriously I started using one and I remember once I started using it regularly I thought how could I never survive without it.

                            So now I want one just based on that. Plus I think I'll be doing steady 20km trips 4 to 5 times a week with the bike so closer to 100km per week regularly and that's minimum, then extra on top of that, so perhaps closer to 150km a week, that's close to 100 miles a week. SO I just figure I want that monitor because I got this program where you can input all this data and see how you're doing. I'm interested to see how it works .

                            And of course to keep my optimal pace. I'm not so much into burning calories or anything, I just go for the science of it. This is what I can do for now, when I get more free time (as in when I take more free time), I'll start taking it more seriously and start with the whole 5 meals a day and 5 days a week training routine and hopefully get closer to the condition where I was 5 years ago. I won't get their simply because I'd need to start with the MMA again and the whole works, which I'm not ready to do. Plus I think I'll just stick with poker when it comes to more serious hobbies, it's better to make money instead of getting black eye to show for work every other day . I also have a skin that bruises easily, so when I was fighting more actively, my face showed it all the time, if I had a t-shirt on you could see it on my arms and also my neck, which was more freaky because you can see that I was choked and all bruised up . So I think I'll stick with the fan of the sport side of things for now on and get with the training again, which is convinient because I don't have the whole "gain more mass/muscle" "Get sixpack" thing at all to worry about. I like healthy. I like healthy look and I like the feeling I get from training hard and smart. So... it'll be sweet once I get the bike and slowly start things again.
