Good evening 🌘 It's time for my weekly journal about my two-wheeled adventures.
- Weather - 🌥️
The snow has melted, and now it's safe to ride a scooter around the city.
- Insurance - 📜
My scooter insurance is about to expire in two weeks. So, I've renewed it for another year and noticed a price increase:
- 2025: $23
- 2026: $26
Why is there a 13% hike? 🤔💭 I guess insurance companies need more money.
- Bicycle -
I took my bike out for the first time this year, and immediately felt pain in my right knee. Is this now a chronic issue? I've decided to change my biking habits:
- Previously, I mostly rode standing up and never shifted gears.
- Now, I'll be riding sitting down and using the easiest gear on hills.
To be honest, sitting is not very comfortable: speed is slow, and my ass hurts from the saddle. My bike's gear shift has some issues; sometimes, the chain shifts unexpectedly on its own 🥴⛓️ I also ordered $15 knee supports for sports to see if this fabric and rubber gadget can help alleviate the knee pain.
