I've Got a Bike!

I'm taking a bit of a break from long-distance running. But, I'm fortunate that I have a bike to help me maintain my aerobic fitness.

I got my bike pictured here for £150, which is quite cheap.

I also bought all the essential accessories (well, the ones I think are important) including:

- helmet

- strong lock

- high-vis vest

- high-vis wristband

- mask to filter the London pollution

- iPhone holder

I tested it out both today and yesterday. It's quite a nice bike, especially for the price. According to Strava, too, it definitely helps with my fitness as it burns a lot of calories. I'm still a beginner, but hopefully I can cycle faster and faster as I start using my bike more. I'd definitely recommend getting a bicycle to be kind to your body and also to your wallet!
