Stuck in a weird rut.

I am stuck in some kind of rut!

I have been trying to work on a bit of a post about how the cycling and walking are around me. I have been out there just about every day for the past 2 years cycling and walking palces instead of driving to them. It has been awesome and I wanted to show others the bad parts of doing this and some of the really good parts. 

This is where my rut started. I had a plan to take some video and photos of the area and point out the parts I really like and the parts I really hate. I have been focusing on my exercise but I have focused less on the eating. I have not just eaten everything in sight and have still be sticking to healthy things but life things have got in my way. That being said I have started balloning up in weight again. Even with all the cycling and walking I have been gaining weight. This is where my rut has started its hard to think or do anything different when the things you have been working on have been not working even though they were working prior. I still enjoy all the exercise and I love getting out of my house everyday but it has started to become just a thing I do. This has been extending itself to the rest of my life as well. It feels like I have been spining my wheels and just doing the same thing over and over again with no change. Getting on the scale and having my weight go up and up feels like the rut is just getting deeper and I am not going to be getting out of it any time soon. 

I have not got any of the video or photos I want for the post about how cycling in my area is and its not like its a hard thing to do. I do not know how to get out of my rut and I really want to. Either way I am going to have to cut down on my eating and really focus on it. I wanted to get a post out just to get these thoughts out there and to have an update on my progress. Its awful progress and I will do better again. 

My current weight is 178 lbs and that has to change. I am still not a round as I was when I started this blog but I am almost as heavy. I can cycle or run all day long with no problems so my health is better than it has been but again I am so over weight again. 

Anyway thanks for reading have a wonderful day.

Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike 1000 mile updated thoughts.

1000 Miles of Riding the Ozark Trail G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike I have ridden this bike for 1000 miles according to my Strava logs so I figured it was time to update my thoughts on the bike and go over some of the things I still like about it and some of the things I don't like about it. I would rather give my summary upfront and then explain the rest later on so if you want to read the details you can but if not then just read the summary. It is a good bike even after 1000 miles I had not had issues with it that hinder my ability to ride it. I would buy another if this one broke or something else happened to it. I also see this as a perfect starter bike or a bike to have as extra such as when friends come over. Now the summary quick thoughts are over lets get into the detials on things.  The Wheels and Tires The tires are one of the first things I had little hope for when I started riding this bike. They are kenda tires but the bike is 250 dollars so they would not be good tires rig...

Ozark Trail Fat Bike, Thoughs and review

Image
Ozark Trail Fat Bike Thoughts  I was looking for a bike to keep riding while there is snow and ice on the ground and as I was looking at bikes Walmart offered a fat tire bike in their line of Ozark Trail bikes. It is priced right around the same as the Ozark Trail Ridge but from the images I as on the site I knew there were some major differences in the quality of the two bikes. I know that the two bikes are not directly comparable but the G.1 explorer and the Ridge have a lot of the same stuff that make them good so I was hoping to see a few more things on this bike. That being said with out going through the whole review I looked at other fat tire bikes in the same price range and figured it was better than them so I bought it.  The set up was not as good as prior Ozark Trail bikes. I don't know if this bike has a proper name from Walmart because they listed it as fat tire bike and the box reads fat tire bike but the bike itself has M.3 Ranger on it so it might be the Ozark ...

Review of the Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike.

Image
Ozark Trail 700C G. 1 Explorer Gravel Bike. 7/10 not a bad bike!  I have read and watched a few reviews on the Ozark Trail 700C G. 1 Explorer Gravel Bike and I am typing it out by full name becuase I think that has the best chance for my review to be read. Anyway I am writing this review after watching and reading other reviews becuase there is something very odd that I have noticed with them. Either this bike is the best bike on the market for the money or its should go straight to the trash becuase its the worst. I feel that both of these types of reviews are just wrong but they do all have good points about the bike. I have put 500 miles on the bike and I have thoughts on it as well as the discourse about the bike.  So this bike cost 250 dollars before taxes. For that 250 dollars you get a heavy gravel bike with cheap components. One of the complaints I have heard about this is that Walmart sells bike shaped objects and nothing is pretentious than a cyclist saying that...
