Riding buddy…….do we need a riding buddy?
I been riding for pass 9 years……it has never cross in my mind about the riding buddy.
Last time, for me the important of riding is your must enjoy every moment of the riding especially when you are on bike…..but do not know start from when I realize this is not really true…..beside enjoy riding your bike you still need a biking buddy (or buddies) to ride along with you.
The reason I said that is we are not on bike for all the time; we need to stop for many purpose such as refill or rest…..during this time la we need someone that can enjoy the same thing that you like….this totally make the thing different.
No doubt, riding compose more than 70% of the enjoyment of biking activity. If we can find a good riding buddy (or buddies) then I believe we can complete the 30%. I encounter and realize this when one of my friend start venture into the biking activity.
I do not said I do not enjoy the previous biking but I would rather said that previous purpose is different…..previously I am really looking forward on the convoy biking or some biking gathering especially in Thailand, the organizer and the event is super …those biker know what I mean.
Now my biking paradigm is shift to more relax biking such as discovery some nice trunk road or some nice scenery in Malaysia. I will stop as when I want……no hurry and no target…..important is enjoy the good riding, good scenery and good joke from riding buddy (or buddies). By doing this it really help me to reduce my working stress and pressure…..so nice and relax.
People always said; good thing would not last long……my friend that I mention just venture in biking is going to leave Malaysia for further his career….with this he has to put a stop on his biking….what a miss for this biking buddy.....well…we need to continue our life is it? So nothing to be too sad….just wish him all the best in his future undertaking…….
For me….well….I will still continue my riding as long as I can and try to share my riding activity in this blog
Let us continue biking and ride safely!
