    What the fuck kind of intentionally misleading bullshit is this article?

    If you read the article, it describes how the study used stationary bike cycling to test the fitness of their subjects. Then years later they found a link between being ‘highly fit’ and reduced incidence of dementia.

    There was absolutely nothing to back up the claim that cycling has more effect on dementia risk than other forms of exercise, but they make that the whole framing for the article.

    On the up side, carbrains who would rather be inactive while they drive for hours a day won’t remember how stupid and unreasonable they were being towards cyclists. 🤭

    Joke’s aside, dementia is absolutely brutal, and no family should have to go through that. Protect your brain and ride a bike!
