    Thanks but thinking the 15 miles a day I ride might trump TS walking

    They just don't understand. That's when we need the snow. We don't need it when it's 20f out.

    The riding is definitely good, but additional walking and maybe less time between breaks (yes we all know keeping the left door shut is a priority) should help. It isn't that the walking is healthier than your current regimen, but more that it changes the movement of the muscle and joints.

    The only problem with that is like dave said .. U have to watch out for the clowns running thru the lot at 30mph... that is no exaggeration either.. That dude in butte in that volvo #### near took me out couple weeks back. The bad part was i was walking where i could be seen and had a high vis safety green tarp monkey shirt on

    It seriously is sometimes. Especially some of the more crowded ones. Ppl not paying attention along with impatient drivers racing elogs, it can be a war zone just trying to walk into the truckstop to take a dump

    15 a day is a good amount of exercise. I was wondering if it's like cholesterol or something you night be genetically pre disposed to.

    No cholesterol is good and no family history but there is always the first

    Hey I tell everyone the truck stop is an excellent placed for you to get killed.

    If you watch a lot of those clowns, 99% are not paying attention to anything, on the phone, or texting.
