Touring places by bicycle is something I really like to do, today because of the contest present in the community I decided to make a route in the morning hours to show part of the route to all of you. Honestly I did not know this community, but thanks to this contest sponsored by the OCD team that gives visibility I could notice it, so I will take this opportunity to be part of you, it will be like my presentation post.
Initially I went out to a monument of my city called the Obelisk, I did it taking a longer and less direct way from where I live to appreciate other important places, I like to leave in the morning hours although today I did it a little late and the early traffic is heavy because many people are going to their jobs and to do their particular errands, so I had to be a little more careful when moving forward.
The sun was not so hot and I appreciate that, in the tour I went through several important avenues, one of them the Rotaria Avenue that connects several parts of the city, then I turned to the Airport Avenue where a few kilometers ahead you can reach the airport headquarters of the city, near there I made a few stops to take some pictures.
After that I took Corpa Huaico Avenue, a well known avenue where there are two universities, one of them I graduated years ago and the other I visited repeatedly when I was studying, then I continued until I reached the semi professional soccer stadium located west of the city, there I was surprised to see active people training early in the morning. When this place was inaugurated it was not always open but fortunately I was able to find out that nowadays from 5:30 am it opens its doors to the public to train there.
It is a soccer field and around it has an athletics track, so there were many people there, some of them running and others walking, I took the opportunity to walk around the circuit and take some shots. I am already planning to go to train in that place because the track looks challenging and I can not wait to see how many laps I can do, yes, I must do it early because there is no shade and the sun hits mercilessly.
After a few minutes I decided to continue my way to the finish line, it was not so far so I took my bicycle and started from there, I crossed the professional baseball stadium of my city's team and continued along the busy road until I reached the Obelisk. This is a monument that has many years, it is there even before I was born and is very attractive for visitors and for those of us who like to exercise because it has its "attractions" so to speak.
When I arrived I took the opportunity to take some pictures and share them with you. It was definitely a pleasant experience. Riding a bicycle in traffic is a bit risky because there are cars that come very close to you, but that's understandable because there is no space for cyclists here in my city, in fact I don't think there is one in the whole country.
I registered my route in the Strava application, I use it a lot for running, there you can see various statistics such as time, speed, distance traveled and more, it is an interesting application that you can download to record your workouts.
Finally and to conclude, it has been a pleasant experience, I am not a professional cyclist but one who loves to ride on wheels as long as possible.
