| A few weeks ago, I purchased a Trek 3700 to casually ride to help get back into shape. I am 29 years old and my job is relatively stressful and I have actually been in the hospital 2x this year thinking I was having a heart attack, but it was related to stress. On top of that, I have been a 2 pack a day smoker and am trying to eliminate the habit. In the last 3 weeks I have gotten the habit down to less than half a pack a day and my goal is to be completely quit by the end of this month.
I am lucky that where I live just south of the Twin Cities has miles, that we have paved trails to ride and not have to ride on the roads much. You will certainly get the itch to ride more as you get used to it. I have been averaging about 100 miles a week since I bought the bike and I honestly haven't felt this good since I was 18!
Good luck in your new endeavor!
Matt
