Skeptics, old fat people and normal bike riders question me about the health aspects of riding an MB instead of a "normal" bicycle.
"You're not gonna get any exercise riding that bike".
Instead of arguing the point, I merely state that this motorized bike is strictly for transportation.
HOWEVER, I've been noticing the positively healthy benefits of riding a pedal ASSISTED bicycle...especially if you put great effort in pedalling.
I pedal and ride about 75 miles weekly. Mostly riding, maybe 80%/20%.
I've been assisting my engine in reaching its optimum rpm range. Using a 1.5" friction roller takes a LOT of effort to get the bike to top speed.
At age 62, my joints are more limber with less aches and pain. My back doesn't hurt while I'm trying to sleep.
Anyone else feeling healthier since riding their MB?
