my virtual bike trip through central France – a summary
In early 2013, I decided to take a new approach to exercise. To make my stationary cycling more interesting, I decided to take a virtual bike trip, using Street View in Google Earth, through central France.

The maps below show the route I followed, from Lusignan, France to La Patache, France. I did the trip in six phases, lasting in total from January 30 to June 28, 2013 (about five months). In total, I biked for 196.8 km and 1975 minutes.

Although I didn’t lose any weight during this block of exercise, my blood pressure decreased significantly, as did my blood cholesterol. I also have more stamina and energy.
