I’ve always adored mountain bikes and Merida bikes in especially. They’re so fantastic, but I didn’t have one in a while now. So I’m so happy and I thought this was a great excuse to get one! My new job is a bit far away, so it’s not near enough to walk. So then I thought of bikes and started to check out Merida bikes in the stores.

If I didn’t have a bike I would have use one of those cable cars, which run all over Oslo. And the thing is that the chauffeurs in these cable cars drive like crazy! You always have too look out for them when you cross the street… It’s faster for me to take my Merida bike now.

Video of neighborhood and bike

Hey, I have to show it to you, It’s such a wonderful bike! It’s a Merida Malibu Disc, and I absolutely love it! One reason why I chose this one besides the looks, is that it has disc brakes. This kind of brakes gives a much more reliable and smooth effect when you hit them, so it’s safer in the long run. Never had them before, but it works much better than all other brakes! Anyway this bike is a great way for me to get some exercise everyday… ;)

In this video you can see my neighborhood. The road I’m biking on is just above the river “Akerselven” and the tunnels are just beneath my house. Here at day time, there lots of ducks in this cute river, me and my husband use to feed them with bread.  Also in the video here there is a quick view of an Oslo cable car in the street, it’s blue, take a look if you can se it!

 

 

Exercise is Important!

Getting enough exercise is so important, no matter what you do or how old you are. When I’m beading and making jewelry for hours at the time I always get tensions in the neck or back, so the body needs to be active to be really healthy. Remember your health and get so much exercise you can!
