Enlightened solutions within your grasp
As from my personal perspective: I have always prioritized the importance of maintaining the best level for my health and fitness through an active lifestyle of physical and mental activity; known to be contributing factors in both life longevity and functional quality, well into our senior years. Good fitness activity habits are best developed young, then carried throughout a lifetime. This is the reason why I support young people making healthy lifestyle choices.
My lifelong interest in cycling as an endurance sport started over 50 years ago. Since then, I've surpassed 100,000 miles of road cycling, including racing when I was young. Augmented with running and strength training, cycling has been my most important activity in building and maintaining my fitness objectives which I developed from my interest in exercise physiology and performance.
But more than that, cycling is also an immersive and liberating way to travel in new places and countries with all the senses engaged. It is to experience the connection to geography, scenic beauty, and culture of a region. Unmatched by other modes of transportation, it is unscripted silent simplicity and exploration in respectful ways. Among some of my favorite cycling places being in Europe, touring there as well as going to the pro cycling racing events.
