#GoodMorning#Gravel! It’s gonna be hot today. By the time I’ve finished my ride it was already around 30°C and it was quite early. I guess we can expect a #summer storm this evening…😂🤷🏻♂️
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower - Ha. I don't doubt it. Mine was 13 years old first beat me to the top of the local mountain and I was in decent shape. I've never again caught him, but he makes me take my pulls.
@patmikemid I’m still skin and bones so I really like mountains. I will make it a challenge for them!😂 I also like long sustained efforts. Hope to pass on the passion and the beauty of going up the hill…🥰@cycling@rower
@nickzoic Yes, Sir! I did get it looked at. Fortunately, a few days ago it just popped and I can hear again. Had it many times before, but never that long. @cycling@rower
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower Our kids loved to travel in the trailer. K2 was 20 days old when we took her the first time - it was cold and snowing on that day... 😊
@rcr Ours too, but fortunately, the boys are now cycling on their own bikes... As they grew older they started putting things to my rear wheel and getting other stupid ideas together... :bulbasaurroll: This trailer is for just one kid so I'm hoping there will be nothing like that... @cycling@rower
@rekiwi That sounds dope! I wish my kids were so eager for cycling! I’m trying to show them it’s an adventure, but age is their limit for now (7, 5 and 0,5). I’m a gravel converted roadie, doing half of the yearly distance at night, so I hope one day they will go out with me instead going to bed…😂 We will eventually get there! @cycling@rower
My 8 & 11yo boys race track cycling during summer. The local club charge $A5 (=€3/$US3) per session which includes use of a track bike and about 3 races over the course of 2 hours.
Emphasis on fun. They both get up early every Sunday and prepare their own bags so we get there on time.
@ClintonAnderson@systemz Take it easy guys!😅 Of course I did! I can also pull off a "look mom no hands" while pushing the kid next to me. Not that I do it very often, but nothing bad ever happened. I am glued to the saddle, though...😎 @cycling@rower
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower We're still working on how to ride a #bicycle. He's really taken to his sister's old scooter though and I ride my bicycle to keep up with him. Only about 6km to work but I wouldn't have time and there's no covered parking when I get there.
@lopta I don’t really have to go anywhere, my sons do. I do it for sports, the young one has to cover less than 1km. The older one, almost 7, has to do 5km to school and then the same distance back. We do have a car, but it doesn’t make much sense to use it in the European city center. They do not know the other way, so they’re cycling…🤷🏻♂️😂@cycling@rower
@ssamulczyk If you need encouraging to do so, it certainly looks as though you'd get the use from it.
I'm perpetually tempted by an insta360 but don't think I'd use it enough to justify. See also a drone.
@pete Yes. All those tempting toys that you think you’d use every day… Then it comes out it’s a hustle to take a drone with you and you end up playing with it more than riding…🤷🏻♂️
Also, buying #Fizik#TerraClimaX2#cycling#shoes is already starting to pay off! The thermal comfort is amazing and they really are weather-proof! It was a pricey but good choice! @cycling@rower
My theory is, when I get my #morning#cycling I’m feeling much better throughout the entire day. If I didn’t, you have me falling asleep at noon…🤡 @cycling@rower
