Two years ago, Ernest Gagnon weighed 570 pounds.....doctors gave him the news and two choices.. undergo gastric bypass surgery or die. Gagnon chose a third option — cycling.
Today, the big man from the small town of Billerica is on a mission from the bike gods. He’s lost more than 200 pounds.
Good on him! Impressive stuff. 😀

Nice bike, good luck to him.
What a lovely story.
lots of drafting opportunities
What tyre pressures??
Guy at work has a similar story. Faced with a gastric bypass operation his Dr advised him to loose some weight prior to the operation. He decided to start cycling, initially enduring ridicule from the local scrotes and pain/exhaustion from years of inactivity. He lost so much weight that the Dr postponed the operation and asked him to continue whatever he was doing. He continued as advised and ended up going from 39 stone to 14 stone!
This is his blog:

Are those pics before or after ?
Tremendous stuff, well done.
who are the midget riders in the pic?
I've picked up on this blog too, inspiring stuff.
Good luck to him
aye sarcasm aside
Chapeau
Weight aside, is he 8 feet tall???
sorry to piss on his chips but he's still 350 pounds, i feel like a lard arse being 250 pounds (18st) at 6ft 1" and he's still got a fair few pounds to go, but like the moral of the story...
