The problem with cycling is that after awhile you get in a groove, higher cadence means less effort and you learn to read the terrain, use your gearing more effectivly and as a result expend less energy. Start running, there is no coasting in running.

I weight about 195 and am 5,9. I whitewater kayak and generally eat well. My problem is that i am always on the road and ussually end up at fast food joints for lunch.
