I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride my bike

I am absolutely loving this new love I have for cycling!

Back when I was just a young nipper in Year 9 (aged about 13) I used to ride my bike to school, and get quite bullied because of this. Mostly due to the combination of being the only girl who rode, and wearing a massive pink shiny round mushroom like helmet. Not cool.

Now I have rediscovered it, all the bad memories have gone, and all that remains is the feeling when I ride; aside from "ow my legs hurt oh god can't breathe oh no uphill I'm knackered" I just feel free!

I am using my mums bike, which is a roadster meaning it doesn't cope well with grass, stoney country paths, or even kerbs! The seat is extra hard aswell, meaning my bum is a tad sore. I have also found a black,normal ish if slightly abot 90's helmet, until I can get a better one.

I'm just trying to build up stamina. Riding longer everyday, up bigger hills. Also I am finally attempting to ride on actual main roads, with traffic lights and everything (gasp) very safely of course! If I start learning to drive after my birthday, hopefully I'll start to understand giving way and junctions better.

I like t ride my bicycle I like to ride my bike...
