Oh yeah, they really wanted to go on this trip. It was good to do a trip just me with friends though too, we all need that from time to time, not responsible for anyone but myself haha.

Two things: give dairy elimination a trial and get a bike travel bag for flights. A car in the Indy area (with only a week at a time) limits where I can go to ride. Looking toward Sedona, Moab, and especially Crested Butte!

Congratulations on getting rid of the asthma! Must feel like being reborn. You can look forward to re-enjoying all the rides that you needed the inhaler on. Everything is going to be just that much better.

This was a beautiful video. It's always difficult to transfer nature experiences to video, but when you dove into those yellow aspens I could really taste the sense of wonder.

Add one to the bucket list, for sure.

Thanks, Leo. Being ‘reborn’ is a great way to put it. I still bring my inhaler with me, and will for a while. It’s a new beginning though.

I am a 16 yr old mountain biker with asthma and have always had problems with controlling it. Could you give me some advise on what I can do?

Hi Seth,

So, what do you think helped you drop the inhaler? I had asthma as a kid but seemed to grow out of it, so I thought. I believe it was my change in diet, omitting red meats and processed food. Eating plant-based foods, eggs, and some fish. I know you recently changed your diet. What did you change? What the health was a great documentary that confirmed my choices in diet.
