CYCLE RIDE!!!!

[fairy56]

Hello everybody, I decided it was time to have my first cycle ride on my electric bike!!! so with granddaughter number 2 on her bike of we went. I thought I would see how an electric bike works, so people visualise the scene. I got on the bike and pedalled, with the encouragement or should I say pleading of said granddaughter I turned on the power!!! Set the mode to the first level and wow of I went with considerable ease, said granddaughter was impressed, so now suggested I should try (just as an experiment) level 2, all I can say is she was easily left behind and found it rather amusing. So now she wanted to see what level 3 could do, have any of you experienced being shot out of a canon!!!!!!? All I can say is granddaughter was left behind and all I could hear was laughter and her shouting " nana wait for me," in the ever increasing distance between me and her. When I eventually stopped whooping and laughing I decided I ought to knock the level back down to level 1, at which time my granddaughter caught up with me, and said the immortal words, " nana, your hair is sticking up," yes you guessed I looked like I had been in a wind tunnel! So if any of you are doubting what fun you can have on a bike, go out and buy an electric one, you will laugh all the way, oh and end up with a sore backside ( I really need to get a bigger seat) but most of all I can go on bike rides again, whether it be with my incredulous granddaughter or by myself, but if you happen to see a 60yr old woman passing you by at incredible speed, laughing at the top of her voice, unfortunately you may have difficulty catching up with me!!

Haha sounds like amazing fun. I'm glad you've found something you can do to add inclusion into your life.

I may need to invest in one of these electric bikes myself 👍

Fantastic. Enjoy the ride. I am sure this positivity is what we need. I haven't cycled for a long time and currently trying to learn swimming as the first goal.
