You´re Too Fast!


 
 It´s not only that W does not give me a ride on his bike! (That´s not his, of course, he sure has a "man´s" bike).
"You always walk anyways!", he said (we met at "Kalle").

The other day he said he saw me, wanted to call, but had to put his bike to stand. Then he turned around and I was gone.
Our street is not that short.

"Boy, you´re too fast!", he said 😁.
 

Reckon I´ll never get a hike on his push-bike!

Isn´t this too nice?!

I´m happy I can walk fast! 
 
Training by Ingo and don´t let me walk with my T - last time, and he´s even taller than Ingo - I was tempted to push him to go faster, 20+ years Ingo do that to you!
Every time we come to Perth we have to "adjust" to the slower pace there, it´s " a pain" 🥰
 
And happy: W is 81 and sooooo fit!
Push-bike, training, he does it all! (And always tells me to tell off Ingo for NOT doing this).

Henry 🦁


"W does not need me, he even doesn´t need glasses!"
To fitness! (would love to have shoes in that color below! Well, at least, thanks to Ingo, I have a sewing machine in this color! And no, the shoes above were not available in another color, I got them from our pharmacy, they are especially for sensitive feet. By golly, never thought I´d say that about myself...! I´m tough!!! Really!)

...you will always be able to find that bike on the bike rack. I need new sneakers, mine are dirty white! W must be amazing.

I ordered new sneakers and can´t wait! Hope they´re as good as promised - yes, W is quite a guy :-)

I had to look twice at that Henry sign. At first glance it looked like a frisbee.

I like that bike. But with all the hills and dirt roads where I live it wouldn't work. But if I lived in a city or more populated place, I would love that to pedal around on. I walk fast too, but being so short my fast is not as fast as some tall people's walk. Walking is good, yes? Happy Thursday Iris!

Iris Flavia said...

William, a frisbee :-) Henry is quick, but he can´t fly ;-)

Erika, yes, same here - fast for my size! ;-) Happy Thursday!

A wise Professor Henry suggests exercise for all ages is very good for a healthy life. It's the lifestyle that Professor Henry recommends. :)
Have a great evening, Iris.

Finding shoes that are perfect for feet (sensitive or not) is challenging. So many possible sizes and shapes.

That bike will never be lost or stolen! 😺 Good for W for keeping so fit and active. My town isn't designed for bikes or walking. Sad. I found really comfy shoes. Merino wool. Called Merinos. And my beloved Crocs for Summer.

That's a colorful bike. Sounds like W is quite amazing for his age.

Very colourful bike! There use to be one similar to this when we lived in Tauranga but the owner of it also use to have a wee pug dog in the basket when she biked around.

People here race around, even in high heels and stilettos. We have learned to stand aside when we hear the stomping feet behind us!

I love the pink bike. Have a nice day.

All the best Jan

I wish I could walk faster -- it's to painful after a bit out. I love that happy looking bike!
