Today I had more time for a cycle so I decided to the the
Blackrock Loop...I started off from Monaghan Rd once again, here I met fellow
blogger Michael so we decided that we would do the Blackrock Loop. This is such
a lovely area to cycle in, however the weather wasn't ideal and it got
progressively worse as the evening went on.
One of the most enjoyable aspects
of taking part in Operation Transportation is the opportunity to discover new
things and places that you may never get to see if you were confined to a car
while stuck in traffic. It gives you a chance to slow down and appreciate your
surroundings.
Also, on one part of the cycle we passed over a footbridge, the
traffic below was at a stand still and quite congested. Even though the weather
wasn't great I was still glad to be out on the bike and not stuck in
traffic!
We all know that cycling is good for our physically fitness and handy for dodging traffic but have a look at all the other health benefits of cycling! Win - Win!!
