I Love to Bike Ride
As I mentioned in a previous blog named, “The Other 5 Fun Facts About Me,” my family loves to go on bike rides. Since the temperature has
been rising here in Northwest Ohio, my sister and I took advantage of the clear
sky on Wednesday and went on a 10-mile bike ride. In Coldwater, Ohio, my
hometown, we are lucky enough to have a gorgeous bike path to ride on.
Our bike path is 4.5 miles long that stretches between
Coldwater and Celina. It’s a beautiful, tree-lined path that makes bike riding,
rollerblading, walking or running so peaceful. It’s conveniently located in the
middle of Coldwater, so it’s a short five-minute ride to the beginning. They’ve
recently added parking lots at either end for easy access.
My sister and I received new bikes for our birthdays last summer. Our parents splurged and got us the Cadillac of bikes. They ride so smooth, but some extra butt padding would be nice. Some of my favorite family memories are when we go down the bike path to Celina, eat dinner at a bar and grill, have a few drinks and come home. One time, we stayed a little longer than we should have and the sun set. Long story short, Erika and I’s bikes aren’t equipped with lights. I am hoping the restaurants open before summer comes to an end, so we can enjoy some family time on the bike path.
I encourage you all to get out and enjoy the nice weather. I guess in Ohio the warm weathered days are hit or miss, so don’t take a 60-degree day for granted.

This is great. I always knew you were a big bike rider because you always biked to classes when we were on campus. I love the weather happening in Ohio right now and I hope it continues to stay nice out. But I love the sister bonding more than anything.
ReplyDeleteI love biking too! I use to want to go biking in the mountains when I was younger, until I saw some of the hills they have to peddle up and down! I have also been trying to take advantage of the nice days in Ohio by walking my dog!
