I like to do new things very much because it brings life and excitement. I never imagined that I would explore new things through bike riding. During my last winter vacation, I tried something new: learning how to ride a bike. I did this with my husband. He took me to a field and tried to teach me how to ride the bike. It was very exciting and enriching for me. I felt very adventurous learning about biking.
