I mean, their findings can basically be summed up with "I like to ride because it's fun and I enjoy it" so yeah, sure.

I'm always curious about medical studies when they involve an incredibly small number of subjects -- in this case, 11. Not that I disagree with the (summary of) the study, but how valuable can the results really be? Seems like it would be way too easy for the median to get knocked way out of whack. Heck, we have 12 people on (most) juries, and the results from juries are not beyond reproach.

I wonder who funded the report. If the bike industry, they were probably hoping for reason #1 to be "so I can spend money on cool stuff I don't need, and then replace it the following year with newer cool stuff I don't need". Guilty.

yes, it does actually.

I never viewed cycling as a substitute for a roaring car or a well endowed young mate: Rather, as a complement.
