GORILLA ZEN
Finding the Zen on two wheels

I love Greenwich Park! If I want a nice and relaxing place to go, it is one of my top destinations in London. There is something in its huge trees, and open spaces that has a relaxing effect on me. And it is located at the meridian 0, basically in the center of the globe, how cool is that?
It was Monday morning and I had this unbearable urge to move my legs in circles, feel the wind against my face and burn some sugar from my blood. Not sure where to go I headed to this beloved park. One of the best things of riding to Greenwich Park is that in order to see the beautiful view from the Royal Observatory, facing the Royal Naval Museusm, you got to climb a little hill. There are not many hills in London, and now I am even happy when I got to climb one. The effort you need to put, the concentration and above all, is that everything that goes up, needs to go down! So let me go just one last time!

One of the cornerstones of my bike riding philosophy is that using no hands is not a crime. It wasn't easy to develop this skill, but once I did, there was no turning back from it. The freedom, the complete control, total attention and pure joy! Once you get used to it, the bike feels almost like a part of you.
First you gather speed, it makes your life easier. Then you find your balance, keep your back straight, take your hands off the bar, keep pedaling. There you go! No hands is not a crime! |
