Cycling addiction?

Friday, September 16, 2005

Today's Carthage Press has an article about John and Susan Wagner of Carthage, who

found their addiction almost by accident when Susan was on the hunt for a high-powered exercise routine to make up for her mostly sedentary job. She stumbled onto a spinning class at the gym and was immediately hooked. The intensity and comraderie of stationary biking was exactly what she was looking for.

"I just love to be on the bike, I love to ride," Susan said. "I'd always just ridden for pleasure. Then I did the spinning classes for eight months and, through hanging out with that crowd, learned about distance rides."
