Ride London 2016!


Ride London 2016! 

Note: I am so sorry I have been very quiet. The reason, is I have had to do all my homework ... I will now try to do it daily and will make it better! I hope you enjoy it!

It will be the BEST DAY EVER! I am doing Ride London 2016! Ride London is a day when they close the roads and let cyclists ride in London! It was very exciting!
Full of excitement, I woke up at 6:00 a.m!

I was so excited but tiered! I was so excited I vomited because i was sick ! After a while I needed to brush my teeth and have a wash. I then needed to put my shoes on. We then went with my bike,
Thunder blue!  We reached the station and had to wait for a short time!

After ten minuets, we got on the train. I wanted to have a sip of coke but dad said no because I needed to save it till we reached Ride London! Twenty minutes later we reached London! It was a bit of a long walk before we reached Ride London. The lovely sound of music was buzzing all over London so I danced a long. We finally reached Ride London!

I was so glad when we started cycling! I then hit the road! We then saw a humongous sign which said Prudential Ride London. It looked like a starting line for racing. The first iconic building we saw was Buckingham Palace. We then rode for about 5 minuets until we saw the first Festival Zone.



A Festival Zone is a place where riders can take a short brake. There is lovely music and engaging activities to keep riders amazed and entertained!

 I then felt ever so slightly tired but I wanted to carry on. I could get the appetising smell of some fabulous food, it made my tummy grumble. After some time I wanted some Coke (I LOVE COKE!). We then had to find the nearest stop so that I could have a drink. We then took a short brake.




I was riding like the wind! I was overtaking cyclists a lot! I then saw the Gherkin. It looked extremely tall! I was gobsmacked!  We then wanted another brake, so we stopped at the St. Paul's Festival Zone I then saw a Penney Farthing bicycle! I wanted to ride it but the queue was too long! We then finally finished the first lap. If you didn't know how long one lap is, it was 8 miles! Last time we did not even complete one lap! This time it took me 30 minuets to complete one lap but last time it took us 2 hours to complete 3 quarters! (That is a long time!).



We then did not feel tired so we did a second lap.We then saw the starting line again! I then knew that there is going to be a race for professionals! When I am older I will want to be a racing cyclist! I then felt a bit peckish for some crispy food! I was glad when my Dad bought me some crisps. After 20 minuets, we finished our second lap but we were still not tired so tried to do the third lap. I then saw nobody in front of me so cycled very fast! After some time we did the third lap and we stopped there. I felt very tired but happy.

We then made our way to the to the train and went back home.I still felt very hungry because I did not have anything to eat! We then went to an Indian take away to eat some spicy and mouth watering food. It was very exhausted!  I hope you enjoyed this blog and I will see you next time! Here is an easy math challenge: how many miles did I cycle?






BYE!     BYE!

  1. Darling Sean,

    Congratulations on the write up. I hope my third attempt to write a comment will work.

    I admire your amazing ability to write.

    On Prudential RideLondon you have shown
    a) unbelievable stamina for being able to do it even though you were sick and without a morsel of food
    b) great motivation - you have done a bicycle ride of 24 km which is amazing for an 8 year old and
    c) good example to all young children of your age 'where there is a will there is a way''.

    Love

    Grandma
