Back in the saddle

Written on June 1, 2009 by Allan Lykke Christensen

Once again summer has reached Denmark. A few weeks ago I got my old bike out of the store and had it serviced along with getting a baby chair fixed. I’ve been dreading trying to cycle with the baby as I always thought that Baby Nikh would struggle and try to get out. Man, was I in for a surprise. Nikh absolutely loved sitting in the chair and is completely calm while in traffic. So for the past two weeks I’ve been dropping Nikh at day care before going to work, something we have both enjoyed. This evening the weather was so nice that I decided to take Nikh for a ride. We went all the way down town and back.

To anyone considering getting on the bike instead of the car, don’t hesitate! Cycling is very nice and enjoyable – especially when the sun is shining. Take your time and don’t let all the “pros” scare you. I huff and I puff when I go up those hills, but I don’t care.. feels very good afterwards.
