Their parents brought them bikes for their Eid present!😍 I love it.🚲

I made it to Box Hill!
What an amazing adventure!
The view was speechless.
The climb was hard, but I didn't give up. Once I reached the top, I couldn't stop looking at the view!
I felt like I was on top of the world.

Today, I met this lovely lady who contacted me through social media and asked if she could go for a ride with me! She told me that she didn't have much confidence in riding on the road, but today she did it! Proud of her!🎉
Cycling definitely puts a smile on everyone faces!
Being a muslim woman and a cyclist is a bit hard because people see the head scarf and think why is she on a bike. But for me that has never bothered me. I just smile and carry on. I just love cycling and the freedom it brings me! 😁

I’ve finally did the 100 miles!
It was the longest ride I’ve done on my Brompton.
I’ve cried, I laughed, I smiled and I did not give up!
I also had a puncture which delayed my journey! Apparently someone threw pins on the floor!
Nice to see

REVEAL TIME!
The wait is finally over.
I went for the Black Edition Brompton 2023 C-Line Explore M6L in Flame Lacquer.
I'm in love with it. A well-deserved treat.
Here's to many more adventures...

Today I got most of my family out of their houses to do some cycling with ME around Battersea Park.
It was an amazing day! There were 44 of us!

My BIG parcel has arrived today.
I thought I'd treat myself this Eid.
Words can not express the feelings I have right now, I am so excited.
It was so difficult choosing the perfect colour, model and gear type, but I got there I'm the end!
Here's to more adventures.🤩
I get asked this question a lot!🤣
"How do you cycle with that long dress?"
1. I feel comfortable.
2. I feel comfortable.
3. Religious reason why I cover up.
4. No it doesn't get caught in the chain.
5. I feel FREE.

I fell down, but I got back up....
Yes, it was painful
Yes, I cried
Yes, I cared more about the bike than myself.
But one thing is I never gave up.
Once my bike was sorted, I kept on pedalling.🚲
I ended up in Richmond Park!🤩

I hated this racist comment left by this person on my post today! I did block & report it straight away!!
Usually I don’t let things bother me but this one has annoyed me.
I really don’t know why there is so much hate in this world.
I’m only here to share my joy of cycling.

Hammersmith Bridge had made History!
For many years I’ve been walking over this bridge with my bike. Now we can finally ride across it freely…
What a great feeling.
Riding a bike has given me so much joy, happiness and definitely freedom!
Cycling around puts a big smile on your face when you do that extra mile.
Everyday is a new bike adventure even if your cycling to work or out exploring.

After 3 hours in a&e, I was happy to hear the x-ray was all clear. I was glad to be out cycling again. Still all bruised up.
I was told not to go out cycling for too long.🤔
I don't know what resting is.🤣
Cycling is the only thing that will make me feel better.

In the next few days, I will be practising going up on hills and putting in that extra mile to get myself ready for Sundays ride to Box Hill.
I know going up there is not easy with a Brompton. But it's on my bucket list to do.✔️
I am always up for a challenge.
I can't wait.
Towards the end, my legs were giving up on me. But I kept on going. I even done extra miles.🤣 I guess I didn't want to end the day.
I am SO proud of myself for doing this bike challenge.

I've started cycling when the lockdown started. I still had to go to work as I work in a School. I refused to go on public transport. So I asked around for a bike and my older brother brought me his Brompton.

Thanks to Phoenix Cyclces in Battersea for sorting my bike out.
My left side of my body is aching, but I'm OK to keep on pedalling.
To me, it doesn’t matter whether it’s raining or the sun is shining or whatever: as long as I’m riding a bike, I know I’m the luckiest woman in the world!..🚲🚲

Yesterday, I achievement the biggest thing I've ever done. It's been a long journey.
After passing my theory test on the 11th time and practical on the second time🚘I've finally got my licence!
I am so proud of myself!
BUT cycling still has my heart and will keep on riding❤️🚲😁
My grandma passed away on Tuesday!😔
It's been really hard this couple of days. Going back on my bike today has helped me get out of the house, clear my head and kept me busy.
I've set myself another challenge today!
I'm meeting up with the London Brompton Club.
We're cycling from Trafalgar Square to RHS Garden Wisley, Woking.
It's going to be a long ride!
I can do this.😁

Today marks 3 years since Brompton came into my life.
When my older brother brought this into the house, I had no clue what it was till I opened it up.🚲
It's been an amazing journey.
I'm actually addicted to this bike now.
It has helped me so much over the years.
This morning, I had an accident where I fell off my bike. I'm OK, thankfully, but I'm more worried about my bike.😔
On my way to the bike shop now, I hope I can get it sorted out soon.💔😫

Electric Brompton Bicycle!
I just love that fact that I can cycle around manually and use the electric part when needed. Especially going up hills. What a life changer. I used to hate hills. But today, I had a different feeling about it when I was cruising up the hills.
This is a good reminder to enjoy your bike adventures no matter where you go or who you ride with.
Riding a bike is so good for your mental health and gives you so much freedom.
For me, cycling has been a life changing experience and something I fell in love with.😍
And we're off
Everyone is coming over to London for The King and Queen Coronation.
But me & and my Brompton will be going to Swansea for the weekend to explore The Gower Welsh Peninsula and tour around the countryside and coast.
I've been looking forward to this trip!
My family surprised me with a cake to celebrate my 100 miles ride!
No wonder most of my family turned up at my house today! 🥰
I absolutely love their support…
Today is the day!

I’ve made it to New York!
Before checking in they’ve asked me to deflate my tyres as it wasn’t allowed to have any air in them.🤷🏾♀️
I’ve landed 2 hours ago and I’ve asked to Uber driver to stop me at the Brompton Junction to put air back in the tyres😂
Now I’m all good to go..
I am just amazed at the number of cyclists that got together yesterday. Look at the big cycling community we have in London. We are all stronger than we think.🚲
I just hope something gets done about this.
My thoughts and prayers are with Shatha's family!

Cycling is 100% the best thing to do when you’re in a New city. You can get around freely, stop to take in the view and take pictures.
I took the Empire State Trail along the Hudson River.

I can say a lot about cycling.
I love the freedom it gives me to go around places & commute! I love going on adventures & love watching the world go by.
Cycling has helped me so much with my mental health.
