Bike riding is fun in and of itself, but in an effort to make it even more
fun, we have decided to play along with a Facebook page entitled "
Bicycle Ride and Seek."
It's a fun monthly
scavenger hunt of 12 items to look for while riding your bike.
When
you find one of the items on the list,
you take a picture of the item with your bike included in the photo and
post it to the Facebook page, along with how many miles you rode. There
is nothing to win.
The purpose is
simply to have fun and encourage you to get out on your bike more often.
It's fun to feel like a kid again doing a
scavenger hunt.
It's also camaraderie
among the other participants and it's interesting seeing the creativity in the
photos that are posted and how people interpret the list of items to search
for.
Most importantly, it's just one more way for
my sweetie and I to spend time together and enjoy ourselves!
Here is August's list:
Here are our finds:
A clock showing 7:30 -- 5 Miles
School Bus -- 5 Miles
Tire swing (industrial size) -- 5 miles
Statue of a woman -- 5 miles
Blue plastic kiddie pool -- 5 miles
A cat riding a bike? That's not right! (But it's cool) -- 5 miles.
Picture from inside a Porta-Potty -- 26.3 Mile ride
All the way from the Cumming Tap Bar in Cumming, Iowa!
Chickens! On the High Trestle Trail about 5 miles north of Ankeny, Iowa -- 14 mile ride.
Item purchased at a Garage Sale - with bike and garage sale in picture -- 14 miles
Working Phone booth in Lamoni, Iowa -- 8 mile ride
We didn't get them all this month. We weren't able to come up with a song title or an ice cream cone/snowcone. We'll try harder next month! :)
