I was able to locate and tighten the right knob on the stationary bike in the basement to where it's usable now, as long as you ignore that there's no computer and so you have no idea just how much resistance you're pushing or how many rots you've done, or what you're rpm is, or how long you've been on the damn thing... Ignoring all those problems and just trying to manually maintain an even RPM, it's "usable"

The next problem is finding some other way to keep track of how long I'm on it, I can use the kitchen timer for that I suppose, and then figure out a way to keep my mind occupied so I don't get bored doing it. That'd require some kind of portable entertainment device I think. I could try to play games on my PSP for that purpose, but I think I'd lose track of my RPM's if I did that. A better option is reading. With the crap lighting in the basement, paper books are out, so that leaves getting the iPad back from the BF. Somehow I don't think that's going to happen

When the proper dieting starts soon I'll have to try with the PSP I guess, nothing else for it.
