My Bicycle Ride with Tulio and Tracee


Several weekends ago I rented a bicycle, along with my friends and colleagues Tracee Walls and Tulio Bertorini. For $5.00 each we had access to the three bikes for 3 hours.

It was a great September day albeit with a strong wind. Since Tracee had not ridden a bicycle since she was a kid we let her get used to it by driving around the Planty. But she confirmed that old adage, “you never forget how to ride a bicycle”, as she soon was starting and stopping without falling down.

We next ventured down to the Wisla River where there is a great bike and walking path that runs for miles. It follows the meanderings of the river and darts in and out of several neighborhoods so it provides variety as well as sights. We did this for a few hours until we felt the wind change and the skies darken. That’s when we turned around and headed back to the center of town where we returned the bikes.



It was a great day for a ride and one that Tracee will long remember as she had forgotten how much fun a bike can be.
