My name is Nika ! I'm new in here :D
I have learnt how to ride a bike only this summer ( he-he) :oops:
But now i absolutely love it !
I tend to go on my own , my bf occasionally joins me on the weekends,
but it would be really nice to find a company to go together on long bike rides :)

    Thanks for welcoming !
    I’ve been cycling like half a year now, and to be fair don’t find my hobby really expensive though, maybe because I’m just a beginner :roll:
    Got a bike, some accessories, clothing, that’s it!
    To compare to my bf’s hobby who is busy doing hydroponics (the way of growing stuff under artificial lights and in the special solution) it’s rather cheap. His hobby is so bloody boring and expensive :? , not taking in account the energy bills :lol: l …
    And my bike doesn’t need food to live, just oil chain sometimes and this is it 8)

    ...i think iknow what you mean ,when i just started to feel comfortable on the bike i was spending hours and hours everyday enjoying the ride ( compensating the time i've lost ) :) no matter what the weather was. I'm still enthusiastic now and go often on bike runs but sometimes make excuses for the bad weather or hangover from the last night :lol:

    Might help if you tell us which part of the country you are in, there are bound to be some local rides and clubs near you.
