It's Wednesday, so right in time for a new ride or walk out there, right? š
Even though it's been a few weeks already since I last took on a ride my bike, I remembered about this folder with the memories created back on a Wednesday so I thought it's a pretty good excuse to share them in today's article but also update you with what new things we purchased for our bikes.
It was actually the name day of my boyfriend so thinking that I still don't have a present for him but somehow the helmets were also missing from our equipment, we began the day by taking a quick walk to a shop with all kinds of accessories for the bikes and purchased these.
Actually, since we discovered how much we enjoy this activity, my boyfriend kept watching various videos on YouTube related to bikes and that's how we found out that 92% of the people who die while riding a bike, are mostly caused because they weren't wearing a helmet which is horrible!
We always postponed the moments of getting a helmet thinking that it will either be too heavy or that will make our heads warm up like crazy during the hot days of the summer, but the interesting part came when we tested them out and then purchased and realized that they actually help to ventilate your head more than you'd feel without the helmets.
Another thing that at this moment I am the single one who purchased it, is the bike saddle which turned out into an urgent must while the one I was using was very uncomfortable and made us take a break from rides way too many times. My boyfriend is also planning to get one pretty soon, so hopefully, these will solve our delicate problems, lol.
I will leave down below the links to the things we purchased for our bikes in our last shopping day in case anyone is interested or wants to read more aspects about them:
- Rockrider MTB ST500 Helmet: you can read more about it, here;
- Btwin CBH500 Helmet: you can read more about it, here;
- Acid MTB Bike Saddle: you can read more about it, here.
Anyway, enough with these technical aspects because this is a Wednesday ride post overall, right? š
So, as soon as we made the little upgrade on our bikes, we decided to hit the road again following a ride both on the streets of the city where we are living but also getting into the woods for some more adrenaline moments and lots of mud on our wheels.
Even though we had in plan to enjoy a more relaxing day rather than one of these days with 20+ km on the saddle, we still wanted to take a tour around the park and forest until we will get to our favourite place where we can set up the hammock and spend a while there.
I won't make this post any longer saying how much fun we had until we found the perfect positions how two can stay in the same hammock because we had lots of fails and attempts, but I'm happy that we managed to disconnect ourselves from technology, traffic noise and daily routines for a few hours we spent there talking, reading, laughing, eating and even just staying silent to listen to the sounds of nature.
I know that there are two categories of people, namely these who always want to have an activity and are used to always be in action, vs the other category we are also part of, who prefer these chill and relaxing moments with not too many things going on around you but which I think are more valuable for the inner spirit and your own stress-free moments.
How does a Wednesday look like for you? What category are you part of? š
