Staring down the barrel of months at home, physically distancing, we all got a little inventive with our hobbies. From sourdough starters – in fact, baking of all kinds – to transforming old wardrobe pieces into something new and taking our dates online.
But the pastimes nobody predicted an uptake in come on wheels.
Apparently bored of getting around on two feet – and saving some dollar on gyms and PTs – it’s taken the craziness that is 2020 to have us rolling around town, be it on skates, bikes or scooters.
If you’re one of those, newly on two wheels (or eight!), you’re far from the only one – bike retailers report a healthier sales period than peak gifting in the lead up Christmas. Great minds.
A combination of avoiding the confines of public transport for the good of our health and upping our fitness levels in this increasingly sedentary time, getting around on wheels doesn’t sound like a bad idea.
