....HoW CaN I FoRget ....?




it's been a long long time i don't go biking. the last time i biked  maybe about 15 years ago. but today, many people go biking even to go to the office and there are many 'bike to work' clubs, mainly in Jakarta. so, when i saw my cousin's bike unused i was tempted to try it out. i wanted to know wether i could still be able to ride it or not.


to my surprise, i failed pedaling, steering and balancing my body-the basic skills to ride bicycle. lucky me, nobody see me at that time.  it's very shameful that i forget how to operate a bicycle, it seems that i have to start learning about cycling and get ready for my cousins and nephew saying  "starting with tricycles aunt ... before you try bicycle ..."

  15. Salam,
    Riding is just like swimming you cannot forget how to proceed with once you learnt. I bet it's only in your mind and you need to go beyond that false idea. You will realise that it's very easy. Just put enough motion with your legs before pedaling, you'll get balnce then it will work by itself. Believe me you can do it.
    Salam

  18. dear sis, I agree with saharaman, you can't forget how to ride a bike, it's the same has forgetting how to walk, unless you suffered a brain injury. But fear could prevent you from relaxing enough to just let go.Like the saying goes, if you fall off the horse, you have to get back on it as soon as possible to conquer your fear. Good luck .

  19. thank you sis, maybe it's about "practice makes perfect" ... i hope i don't suffer a brain injury if i fall off the bike, so i soon get back on it :):)

  20. I have heard you can't unlearn to ride a bike. I haven't been on a bike in a long time myself, I hope I still can :) Not that I plan on taking a bike ride anytime soon lol
