After I made it to the top and did my “celebratory drive in a circle” I realized it had been more difficult because with my busy travel schedule I hadn’t rode my bike in 6 days.

Doing the “right things” on a consistent basis WILL alter your lifestyle. Here are 3 simple steps to help get you on track . . .
