This evening I joined one of the Nicosia bike clubs on a sunset ride around Athalassa Park. A beautiful evening to be out with about 40 other cyclists. It's a great way for me to feel safe riding on lots of bush tracks where I mostly don't have a clue where I'm going. I'm finding that on my solo rides I can't get very adventurous because of my horrid sense of direction. Gradually I'll get more daring no doubt with time but I really need a cycling buddy.
Anyway, I had this thought as I was listening to all the cyclists chat on about who knows what. I thought 'Oh how I wish I'd learnt Greek; it would really help me get to know some other cyclists'. It was a fleeting thought. Only seconds passed and a kind cyclist came up beside me to practice his English. I could be useful in that club after all!
