Walk to School [Every] Day:

October 5 was national walk to school day so I though I would mention the 629 (on average) school kids (up to age 15) that are hit by motorists every year just in Maryland. There may be a logical reason why some are walking instead of driving. Maybe we should lower the driving age to 10? .. OR maybe we should make the roads safer for everyone. .

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
