He's probably hit a plateau, where his body has adjusted - the final two stones are very hard to shed. I've still got one more stone to lose, but it aint easy. Like me - he needs to even eat less, while maintaining his level of exercise IMHO.

Very impressive result from 430 miles on the bike! I would have shed only 3 pounds in that distance.

The article doesn't mention a concurrent change in diet, but I bet there was one. It's the biggest part of the equation, in my experience, and far more effective for weight loss than exercise.
