Day 6 of Lockdown - The Bike Ride


I’m Joel a 9year old boy in lockdown. I live in Auckland, New Zealand and since the 24th March 2020 we’ve been in lockdown because of Movid 19……. Oh sorry Covid 19. Who is covid anyway?

On Tuesday Daddy, Mummy and I went on a bike ride. Now we haven’t been on a bike ride in aaaaaaaages. Like about a year or so. So that meant Mummy and Daddy were a bit wobbly (I was too, when I first got on but I was fine after that).  Also Mummy’s bike kept clicking and she said it was soooo heavy.

Anyhow. We cycled down the driveway and then Daddy told me that I would have to ride on the edge of the road so that I could stay 2 meters away from anyone if they were on the path. I did not like that idea because even though there were hardly any cars around I still felt uncomfortable. So we decided to cycle all the way to the park a few streets away because it wouldn’t be too far. And when we got there you will not believe how many people were there. There was about 15 - when everybody’s meant to be in lockdown!!! And the more Covid 19 spreads the longer we have to be in lockdown. Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Now on the way back Mummy was finding it hard to ride so she said to me and Daddy to go ahead and we raced of leaving her in the dust.

As we were turning on to our road Daddy started explaining to me how when you’re cycling on a road you need to act like a car by going when the traffic lights go green and stopping when they turn red. I started annoying him by saying that if you had to act like a car then why didn’t you have to pass a cycling test? He was really frustrated at my logic. Hahaha hehehe
So that’s pretty much all that happened on our bike ride apart from the fact that Daddy towed the bin up the drive with his bike and I don’t know how he did it.

Oh and by the way Covid 19 is very poooooooo Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
