Yesterday me and my wife went into biking. She used the mountain bike and I used the vintage bike-- a JC Higgins De Luxe.
She got beautiful bike but I got the attention of the people because vintage bike its not usual you see an old bike in my place. So when one is on the road it really become a star on the road.
The bike still on good running condition. It got some issues but minor only.
We biked about 30 kilometers. Around our place. My wife was contended with that distance. This is not first time we have this kind of activity.
It was a fulfilling activity. We will do it again.

@ilocosboy That is a great hobby to have. It is really nice that people want to restore and preserve these old things.

@ilocosboy I think it just need a bit of polishing it and cleaning it further. Maybe you could even sell this as an antique item already.

Somebody was trying to buy the bike but I said there is some sentimental value in it.

We ate a lot in our breakfast. But actually its peanuts to other bikers here who can go the distance more than 50 kilometers.

Oh I see. But its not too late yet. Start with small bikes, like bmx, its not hard to learn to bike.
