“Like the rhythm of a sitar or the steady beat of a dhol, cycling brings harmony into my life.” 🎶🚴♂️
If there’s one thing I love doing the most, it’s cycling. For me, cycling is not just a hobby — it's a sadhana (a mindful practice) that keeps my body energized and my spirit calm. With every ride, I feel a deeper connection to the moment — just like the meditative state created by traditional Indian ragas.
I still remember March 1, 2025 — the day I completed the Coast to Coast Cycling Event. It felt like a spiritual pilgrimage. Each kilometer tested me, strengthened me, and ultimately brought me closer to myself. Since then, I’ve been part of group rides across Uyo City*, complete with photo stops, refreshments, and shared vibes and steeze — like an Indian cultural procession moving in rhythm and unity.
What I Love Doing the Most and Why
🚴♂️ Cycling: My escape and my therapy — it teaches me patience, endurance, and gratitude. It's one of the sports children love the most. What kids love is very peaceful and it brings us together.
🎶 Listening to music: Whether it's Afrobeat or classical, music is my emotional support. Makes me feel like I'm not alone. With either earpods or a wireless speaker, each beats come to life as I want to dance along. Talk of amapiano
🍲 Eating: From spicy jollof rice to trying new street foods, food is my favorite kind of thing. Food never disappoints, once you eat it, it enters your belly and you savour it as you go. Don't worry I won't be angry if you call me foodie.
📱 Watching Reels: I enjoy short videos that make me laugh, teach me something, or inspire creativity. I'm planing on a project of making electricity with magnets. Videos will help me.
🎥 Creating content: Especially in health, and education — because sharing what matters is fulfilling. I also make personal videos on capcut.
When you love something, you find time to spend on it, with it or for it. Although i dont ride everyday, but whenever I i do, I take the time to enjoy the feeling that comes with it. Its peaceful
