My Actifit Report Card: January 27 2021

avatar

Do you remember your first bike? The smell of freshly cut grass as you rode up and down the drive way as dad cut the grass. The feeling of freedom as the wind gushed by and your wheels spun faster and faster. The smell of freshly cut grass still brings back those memories.

The moment your training wheels were removed and you felt as free as a bird? Then you hit your early years and went on rides with friends exploring the great unknown. The smell of eucalyptus and cedar pine as you rode past that magnificent tree that you only saw while in the back seat of mum and dads car, a whole new world. But only to the end of the street of course.

Mum's shouts of where are you or where have you been? Finding mountains of dirt and falling off trying to jump over each other.

Racing to the end of the street to see who was the fastest, those were the days.

Then as you aged you bought the bike you always wanted and vowed to ride it like you used to. With your kids in tow showing them the ropes. But it probably still sits in your garage or shed waiting for the perfect moment.

I still have the feeling, I'm out everyday and often with little miss 3 on the back. But I'm faster now, clocking upto 40kms an hour on a mountain bike. I'm wanting to purchase a road bike soon as I want to push myself even harder and see what top speeds I can make.

I love it, each day is the same thrill as it was back in the day, only better. I'm older and I can still floor it.

I had a great day out on the road today, my choice of bike is more akin to my style of riding, off road out exploring the paddocks. No need for paths or roads, go until the land stops which is doesn't.

I could be out for hours doing this.

I'd recommend dusting off the bike and heading out, you'll pick off exactly where you left off. That full of beans pre-teens pedal to the metal enthusiast that you were.

I hope it did, it was my intention.

Must be warned, where my blogs probably aren't great as they are descriptive and I'm trying to focus an area. My writing skills are quite good. I write from the heart and can bring you on a journey.

These words, are exactly as I felt and saw in my minds eye which is why I stopped to take the picture. I wanted to savour the moment.

It was phosphate smell around here and we only had mountain bikes (and around here kind of needed it XD) which didn't stop us using them as BMXs (paid for that, putting chains back on geared bikes is horrible).

And then I discovered inline skates and after that the poor bike only got casual use XD

Then there were stints in and out as kids interest waxed and waned and now we're skating regularly again because youngest has gotten back into it XD

Oh roller skates! I loved them. Had a pair up until mid 20s. Rode them everywhere. Not sure what happened to them.

They were great, fit into my uni bag. Also made you look taller!

That happens. I went to look for roller scates at Kmart today. Not sure if they were all sold out or if they don't sell them anymore. I remember shops used to be filled with them when I was a kid.

Surprised KMart didn't have any, I usually see a few sets whenever I happen through the sports section o_O

Although the inline and roller skates seem to have been displaced by scooters and I don't blame them, scooters are much easier XD
