Bionic man Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Five months ago I was a fat lazy couch potato smoking 40/day, 100+kg. 4 months of hard work, no smoking, eating right and I am down to 88kg. Instead of 2km, I now do 120km. My lovely wife decided to reward me with a set of American Classic rims, almost half a kilo off on the bike now and hopefully a sub 4 hour on my first ACT, starting at 9.27 so is going to be touch and go......
Spinnekop Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Stunning!! I admire you for your hard work. I am fortunate to have a healthy lifestyle from day one and it is hard for me to imagine what the "overweight" guys must go through. Loosing 12kg AND quiting smoking.......NICE!!! Nice wheels. Enjoy the ride!!!!!!!
Sidekick Racer Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 thats a brilliant story, WOW, well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that really is impressive..... hi5!!
Overlord Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 With such dedication you deserve those wheels.Congrats and enjoy that first Argus.
ShortLegs Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Fantastic, congrats buddy Hope your 4 months of hard work are rewarded by a great ACT and in turn becomes the catalyst to a life changing experience that hooks you into a healthy "cyclists" way of life. All the best
Pickled Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Nice Work Enjoy the wheels and kee it going!!! You must feel like a RockStar! Nice, keep up the good work and just remember, you did it! Again, well done.
javadude Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Well done. I like the bike, touch of class with that groupset as well.
GreyOwl Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Nice dude...all the best with ACT. Much respect...
AndreZA Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Congratulation and keep it up. I wish someone would hold a carrot in front of my nose to train.
Marius Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Nice going B-man! Just a word of causion, I ride the AC's aswell and I would advise you not to try and bunny hops over any pothole of cateyes with them, they can be a bit flexy but great wheels non the less!
slowpoke Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 very nice - congrats on both the wheels and the great achievement!
Azonic Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 And here I am looking at half a brick worth of chocolate cake... And do I still feel like eating it? Bleh.
