I thought I would do a post to celebrate National Bike Week (Saturday 13th June - Sunday 21st June). This month's Glamour says: "a bike seem to be the hippest way to travel". I totally agree, it's faster than walking, better for the environment than driving, and much less tiring than running.
I've been riding my bike a lot recently. It's definitely a lot of fun and keeps you fit. Cycling doesn't have to be all lycra and sweat. It's nice just to ride at a gentle pace and take in your surroundings and enjoy life. I personally am thinking about saving up for an adorable vintage bike. One with a little woven basket and a bell in an apple red or mint green colour.
I doubt I'll ever get round to getting a bike like this.
I've been seeing many pictures of celebrities who have got the cycling bug. From Duffy to Mary-Kate, everyone seems to be joining this new traveling trend.

Today I went for a picnic in Richmond Park. It's a gorgeous place and there are so many paths and hidden places. They have bikes to hire or you can just bring your own. We saw lots of deer and sat by the lake. It was a lovely day but I only wish I hadn't fallen off my bike - it hurt :(
