Cycling
“A bicycle is the greatest Willy Wonka golden ticket to adventure that has ever been invented. It opens up the world to absolutely anybody”
- Alistair Humphreys
The bicycle, a two-wheeled man-powered steerable machine, pedal-driven, single-track vehicle. I think I would probably be very lost without my bike. It gives me the freedom to be able to explore far-flung places, whilst getting fit at the same time. I am forever filling my soul with happiness-inducing endorphins. I can honestly say, I am addicted. Although it may seem I hike a lot, I tend to ride my bike a lot more! Below are a few of my favourite adventures I have had whilst out on my bike, although every ride is fun and exciting.
