Tour de London


On Sunday, Lisa finally got on a bike again, to try out her new bike... and do as the Londoners do, I got her a folding bike. It's the best thing, since there's not much room in our apartment for 1 full sized bike, let alone 2 bikes and for £60, I think it was a good purchase. I used to laugh at seeing people back at home in Sydney riding a folding bike, but over here, it is the norm.

We went for a ride from Chiswick where we live, rode along the river Thames down to Hammersmith, and crossed Hammersmith bridge. We continued along a dirt track following the river, which reminded me of the rides we used to take with some of our friends along Parramatta through Rhodes. We got to Putney bridge, crossed that and headed home. It was a great sunny, warm Sunday afternoon ride along the river.....ahh...... feels just like as if we were home.
