If you have any doubts about taking up cycling for health reasons, talk to your doctor and ask for his/her advice. Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise to be doing you good, you should get a little out of breath. Don’t worry that if you begin to lose your breath, it could be dangerous and there (20) must be something wrong with your heart.
