😁 If you haven’t tried cycling yet, give it a go, it can be addictive and very enjoyable.🚴‍♀️😁.  

If you have an old bike buried in the back of the shed somewhere, drag it out, give it a clean, check it over, makes sure the brakes work, the tyres are pumped up, the handlebars are facing the right direction and it’s safe to ride.

Go out on your own, with family or friends, within the UK, there are lots of small lanes, trails, bridleways, bike tracks and cycle paths you can use. Stop and have a coffee/tea and maybe even a cake……cycling is proven to be good for you, it doesn’t put pressure on the joints like running does, it can keep you active, you can get to see some wonderful wildlife, it’s environmentally friendly and hopefully will put a smile on your face.

You don’t even have to go far, start slowly and build yourself up. 1 mile today, maybe 1 & 1/2 or 2 tomorrow and see how you feel.  Maybe even set yourself a goal of 5 or 10 miles or km’s but the end of a month. 

Lots of rides organised by British Cycling are Free so its’s always worth checking out their website. Look under Guided rides, Community Rides, Breeze rides (Ladies only) Family rides.  Their website will give you the details of where to meet, how long the ride is, the route etc.  You book a FREE PLACE  and rock up with a suitable bike, what’s not to like.🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️ 😊

It does not matter what floats your boat (so to speak), cycling 🚴‍♀️, swimming 🏊‍♀️, running🏃‍♂️, golf🏌️‍♂️, knitting 🧶, watching films 📽️, reading books 📚, gardening 👨‍🌾, cooking 👨‍🍳 or any other hobby you could name…. My advice would be go for it and do what makes you smile,  do what lifts your mood and makes you feel happy.
