Sunday ChitChat – Week 8 Highlights and New Prompts

Hey, all you bike lovers, long‑distance riders and calorie‑burners:

😁

I can’t go into detail in this post right now because the bed is calling me loudly. I spent the early hours here on Hive and now I’m sleep‑deprived. But this isn’t about me, it’s about the prompts for this Sunday ChitChat. 🤣

_{Though what I’ve just told you is true.}

1. Give me one good reason—or several—that could convince someone who’s sleep‑deprived to go out cycling at six o’clock on a Sunday morning.
2. Have you ever fallen asleep on a bicycle, or do you know someone it’s happened to?
3. Say you had to do a challenge to save someone’s life, and it meant cycling 300 km or more—where would you head off to, and why?

...

You know you can answer any of these questions—or all of them. It’s your choice. Remember to use the hashtag #SundayChitChat, and feel free to invite a friend to join in. That will help us connect with more people.

Bye, see you soon.

Oh, wait…

We had quite a lively week here. Hive account@stella16 showed off a brand‑new bike, Hive account@santacruz.sports made his introductory post in the community, sharing a tough anecdote about learning to pedal. Hive account@lesmann felt the heavens open when the weather began to improve in his area, and Brutus and his companion managed to gobble up a fair few kilometres.

Then again, the cyclists using the #Strava2Hive service harvested plenty of calories. Eat well folks! 😁 I just came up with the next topic for Sunday’s chat… cool!

Hive account@tanzil2024 had a short cycling session of around 10 km and showed us the areas near where he lives. It seems winter is giving way, because he even sweated under his feathered jacket.

And now I must share with you some news hot off the press: last Sunday’s ChitChat welcomed two fresh voices!

Guess who! I’ll give you just a few seconds…

1, 2, 3...

Big cheers, guys—you’re super welcome! 😁

Well, I hope I haven’t left anyone out—or rather, without mention. This post is always a bit of a challenge to put together because of the number of contributions we have. Now I really must say goodbye, wishing you a great week and reminding you to eat properly so you can keep pedalling—otherwise, at this pace, you might vanish.

Bye! Oh, and thanks to Hive account@hive-116692 for including us in his List of contest.
