Cycling in the snow

Today, we went out for a ride. The temperature was at 20 degrees and with wind it felt like 16 degrees. After the blizzard we shoveled snow and then went for it. I was very afraid because the roads were still dirty and I'm still learning how to manage the bike. However I didn't quit and was actually very excited to go out. 
The day was sunny and the cold breeze felt so good on my face.
Once we got to the park we had to lift our bikes up to get inside. 
I took the time to snap some pictures
I love his glasses :) 
These mountain bikes worked so great, and we had an amazing time riding on the street and in the park :) 



Biking time

This day was 30 degrees and we got to test our bikes for the first time. I saw online someone riding in this weather as well with this pose with a title "ride or die"  The guy had the bike higher, but I thought it would be funny to try it as well. Not bad for a rookie ;) 

Another day we had an amazing gift from mother nature and it got to be in the 50's so we had to out and ride our bikes again. 
It was a beautiful day.
We were riding on the parking space area for pictures and then we rid off everywhere :)

Today we rode 10 miles, the day was beautiful and we biked for a longer distance.
First from Briarwood to Flushing Meadow Park (to the world sphere)
Then from Flushing Meadow park to Kissena Park
And finally from Kissena Park back to Briarwood.

We rode for about 1 hr and 15 minutes. It was a lovely day in the high 60's. :)

Beautiful Saturday afternoon :)

Oscar got his bike fixed on Friday and I got a new second hand bike lol. We have been wanting to bike for a while and we are finally doing it. Today we biked 8 miles, and my legs are killing me! But it is so worth it, we got to try something new  and enjoy today's beautiful day together. 

We stopped for a while for water a eat some nuts.
And obviously to get some pictures to capture the moment :) 

Oscar took this picture and I loved it :) 

I took this one with my phone, that's him getting there before me. 


This is the route we took to get back home, the Google Maps App was a great help on this trip.
We rode about 9 miles :)
