I said for years I would get into cycling,I always liked the idea of being able to get from A to B without heavy costs,but i only ever used my bike for commuting I think once to get to the bank back in 2005,and perhaps a few times in 2010 to get to a friends house,although that was short lived as I left it one night and I don`t think his dad was too happy,and I took it on a holiday back in 2010 and would use it to get to the shops and back.
I guess i never really cycled because,i worked just that bit too far away from were i lived,and also liked walking and jogging so when it came to any alternatives to the car I would usually walk or jog,I never really used the car much if i`m honest,just for work I had planned for a long time to get rid of my car but never really made the move because I always thought it was too much hassle to sell it so I guess I just carried on.
When moving into my own flat I took my bike thinking,going into town during the day this will be a good time to use it it was the type of journey that seemed ideal.however having a liking to walking throw the town park on the route and not seeing the point in struggling to get my bike up and down the stairs again i found myself favoring a jog.
However around 3 years or so ago i realized you could get ebike/mopeds that required no road tax insurance MOT, they always appealed to me.Anyways in 2016 i finally decided to get rid of my car due to money issues,but before I could I was involved in a crash,as minor as it was my insurance had become cancelled due to allegedly not confirming my driving licencee,thankfully i was able to get my old insurer to take the liability.
However I was able to sell my car finally all be it not for much due to body work issues, I decided to take a job with deliveroo,a job that had always tempted me for many years in fact a job i applied for months before hand but was unable to start due to family issues.Anways I have just got my ebike and as much as it taking some getting used to i must say anyone after a cheap way of getting around its worth considering.
