Other things to take into consideration are that you are now spending more time on the bike. So you can lower your health club membership and your medical needs. I find cycling usefull in reducing my stress and lessing my asthma. I tend to ride all year long except for during snow and ozone alerts. Lastly instead of watching my weight too much I can moderately enjoy more foods.
