Welcome to my Blog
Hello and welcome to my blog! 😊 Cycling 🚴♀️ is more than just a hobby for me—it's a true passion. Writing about the experiences I've had, the breathtaking places I've explored, the delicious food I've enjoyed, and the incredible people I've met along the way brings me so much joy. I'm not here to claim I'm an expert in cycling—or writing, for that matter—but I hope you'll find something to enjoy in my stories. If you take the time to read my blog, thank you! 😊 And if not, that's perfectly okay—after all, we all have different interests. 🌟
😁If you haven’t given cycling a try yet, now’s the perfect time! It’s fun, energizing, and can quickly become a healthy addiction. 🚴♀️😁
Got an old bike gathering dust in the shed? Dig it out, give it a good clean, check the brakes, pump up the tyres, and make sure everything’s in working order—including those handlebars pointing the right way! Once it’s safe to ride, you're ready to hit the road.
Whether you go solo, with family, or friends, the UK is full of hidden gems for cyclists. Explore quiet lanes, scenic trails, bridleways, bike tracks, and cycle paths. Stop for a coffee, tea, or even a slice of cake along the way. Cycling is not only great for your health—it’s easy on your joints compared to running, helps you stay active, lets you enjoy stunning wildlife, and is environmentally friendly. Plus, it’s bound to put a smile on your face!
You don’t have to go far or fast to start. Begin with a short ride, maybe a mile today. Tomorrow, stretch it to 1.5 or 2 miles. Gradually build up to a goal—5 or 10 miles by the end of the month, perhaps? Take it at your own pace and enjoy the journey!
British Cycling also offers a variety of free rides you can join. Check out their website for Guided Rides, Community Rides, Breeze Rides (ladies-only), or Family Rides. You’ll find all the details—where to meet, the route, how long the ride is, and more. Simply book your FREE PLACE, grab a suitable bike, and you’re good to go. What’s not to love? 🚴♀️🚴♂️😊
At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what you love to do—whether it’s cycling 🚴♀️, swimming 🏊♀️, running 🏃♂️, golf 🏌️♂️, knitting 🧶, watching films 📽️, reading 📚, gardening 👨🌾, cooking 👨🍳, or any other hobby that sparks joy. The key is to do what makes you smile, uplifts your mood, and brings you happiness. So go for it!
Cycling is one of the best ways to explore a country. If you happen to take a wrong turn along the way, embrace it—sometimes the detours lead to the most memorable adventures. What truly matters are the people you meet, the experiences you gather, and the joy you feel along the journey.
I hope you enjoy reading about my travels 🚴♀️😊. Feel free to leave a comment about your own cycling adventures! Your stories can inspire me and others, and we'd love to hear about your experiences.
