Today they weather was sunny and warm: 82°F / 27.8°C. Perfect for a lunchtime ride wearing shorts and a t-shirt. Gotta take advantage before another freeze comes!

Bicycling is Fun

I have so much fun bicycling, especially on my Brompton folding bicycle. Unlike my road bicycle, the Brompton seems at home going at a relaxed pace, with many stops to smell the roses and take photos.

The Brompton is so easy to dismount too. It’s actually really fun to ride it like a scooter, standing with the left foot on the pedal, but having your whole body on the left side of the bike, then hopping off directly into a walk. I’m still practicing the opposite: Pushing off like you are riding a scooter or skateboard, then getting on the seat and pedaling away.

I spent some time practicing this at the local stadium parking lot this afternoon, and then had to take a picture of Piplup. 😀

I hope you had a great day!

Today I went for a long bicycle ride with Piplup. I recorded the whole adventure, so if you’d like to ride along, please watch the video below!

The photo above is of my editing screen, and the Pinky:St figurine that encourages me to keep going. 😀 The video was almost 2 hours long, so the whole rendering and uploading process took a long time. But it’s fun to create!
