Hello cyclist, first time here and I must say I have been going through this community for a while and I have admired how people talk about their cycling experience and also their cycle repairs. It’s been fascinating and I have loved every bit of it. This is me about to share my cycling experience and how much I love it.
When I was little, we grew up in a compound, and there were other families as well. We weren’t allowed to watch TV for long, so most evenings we got to ride our bicycles alongside other kids within the compound. It felt like every child had a bicycle because we all came out at a particular time to ride our bicycles. This made it easier for me to know how to ride a bicycle.
Some days ago, my friend and I were done with lectures and decided to take a walk back home. While we were going home, we saw some boys riding their bicycles back home and it felt as though they were racing with their bicycles which looked like they were indeed having lots of fun. My friend decided to ask if everyone could ride a bicycle.
Turns out I was the only one who could ride a bicycle. They were shocked to hear that I could ride a bicycle because I had never done any outdoor exercise such as cycling or running. I never seemed interested in any game or exercise before so they were shocked. They even said I was lying and I couldn’t ride a bicycle. Well, I told them I wouldn’t argue but just prove it to them. We all agreed that the next day we would borrow a cycle from one of the guys in school.
Well, the next day came and they were quick to get the bicycle. Due to their loud noise people’s attention was drawn to me. Well, we got the bicycle and then I climbed on it and started riding that was when they kept shouting and couldn’t contain their joy. Honestly, I felt really good because I haven’t been on a bicycle for a while and I needed to feel that old feeling of excitement I get when I usually ride it with my siblings.
Everyone was super excited and we forgot we were supposed to go home. I kept taking turns with the owner of the bicycle and riding continuously. I even learned a new cycling trick courtesy of the owner of the bicycle. At a point, I didn’t want to go home and I was certain my friends enjoyed it too. They all tried climbing on the bicycle and seeing if they could ride it.
Well, they all tried as beginners in riding. Hopefully, the next time when we are less busy we get to ride for a longer time and have fun. One thing about cycling is that it makes you forget your sadness and creates a sense of excitement when doing it. My friend already said she was going to get me a bicycle as a birthday gift as I was really happy while I was cycling.
