Recommend an exercise bike
Posted: Thu May 02, 2024 7:36 am
Morning,
I've been lightly encouraging my Wife to do some exercise. To be fair, she has a demanding job with special needs kids, so spends quite a bit of time running around after them and, in turn, brings home a lot of stress with it. She isn't the natural exerciser but, I think she really could get into it once she gets started.
She's mentioned getting an exercise bike to be able to just jump on it for a bit in between kid's duties. She has got a bike but has ridden that less than 3 miles and it's sat in the garage for a few years now. So, anything to encourage her to get started.
I'm after a reasonable secondhand bike. I've got a very vague idea of the type but pretty much clueless otherwise. It needs to be comfortable and decent enough to encourage her to get started and continue adding time and miles on it. I'm thinking of spending £200. Not bothered about linking it to a computer, it just needs to be good enough for her to keep wanting to get on it.
Any help on the type to go for...brands, expected prices etc appreciated.
