My childhood bicycle experience

Cycling has always been a way of life for me since when I was a child as a child whose parents were not well to do(rich)whenever I see my mate riding a bicycle I always wished I was the one on the bicycle.sometimes I even run behind begging them to allow me ride a little even thou I was not good enough in riding bicycles.
My parents saw how determined I was in learning how to ride the bicycle and they finally saved enough money and got me my own bicycle.

I was so happy and excited when my elder brother told me that my parent have gotten a bicycle for me but they want to surprise me with it on my birthday day but this should be a secret between me and him and I accepted.my birthday came and my parent gave me the bicycle and told me to be very careful with it so I won’t get into any accident since I was not good at riding yet .

1.learning how to ride :my elder brother was very good at riding cycles so he took the chance of teaching me on how to ride the cycle every evening at our local primary school,within one month I was already good at riding bicycle on my own without seeking for help or support even the neighboring children were surprised on how I learnt it so quick .

2:exploring the neighborhood:riding around the local park on a bicycle was a common childhood pastime for me .it gave me the opportunity around the surroundings,discover new places and also make new friends in other areas.
3 .Bonding with friends:Riding bikes with my friends was a social activity that brought us together,it gave us the opportunities for bonding ,camaraderie and also share experiences.

4:Building confidence:mastering how to ride the bike instilled a sense of accomplishment and also boosted my confidence,it made me to overcome fear of falling ,riding a bicycle gave me a sense of empowerment and resilience.

5:my first taste of freedom:owning a bicycle represented my first taste of freedom and independence.it allowed me venture beyond the confines of my own backyard and explore the world around me at my own peace .

My bicycle childhood experience was one of the best experiences that I have experienced it was filled with nostalgia,joy and life lessons that shape my relationship with physical activity,independence,and outdoors activities
