Fat Girl Fit

Be fearlessly unapologetically you

Category: Cycling

Flowers for valentines? Nah! Pink bike? Erm ok then!

Whilst everyone received flowers and chocolates at the weekend for Valentines I got a new shiny bike! When I say shiny its not actually shiny as it is matt black but you get the picture.  The best part?  It has pink on it and I do love me some pinkness in any way shape or form.

The cycle club I am part of, Romford CC, are lucky to have one of their sponsors be Yellow Jersey Cycles in Billericay and the gentlemen in there were kind enough to get me the new Trek Silque SL 2015.  It is my very first carbon bike and I am expecting it to double my speed and event times – is that not how it works?

Four of the ladies in the cycle club managed to secure places through the ballot for the Prudential Ride London event in August and this year it is all about the ladies!

So here she is my new little pink beauty:

The friendly bear in the background is Nate – much thanks to him and Dan at the shop for sorting my new bike for me!

I best get out pedalling then!

Shortly after moving to Sweden I heard about @ostg Shortly after moving to Sweden I heard about @ostgotadagarna - two weekends every year, one in Speing and one in Autumn, where local sellers open shops, farms, loppis and more..We get the map, mark where we want to visit and off we go finding little hidden gems around our municipality..We started slightly outside in Gränna and made our way back up.  Highlights for me this year were:📍 @kaptensbostaden - this could be my new favourite shop! I bought two of the funkiest candle holders from here!📍 @naturlogi - for their open house and will definitely be looking to go back for food and a further explore 🌳 📍 @haddorpsgardsbutik - I love a farm shop and seeing so much local produce to buy📍 @olsbogardsbryggeri - local beer, which we could not buy on the day but will look in our local System Bolaget to try soon.#östgötadagarna #sweden #fatgirlfit
