🧠 Reflections on the Ride
- E-bike Battery: The battery drained faster than expected, especially on steep climbs. This reminded me that an e-bike doesn’t make the ride automatically easy—challenging hills are still felt in the legs.
- Video Recording & Content Creation: The camera didn’t always work perfectly; sometimes recordings stopped mid-session, resulting in many short clips. This raised questions about whether to publish clips separately or as a compiled video.
- Progress: Bike rides are more than just sightseeing. Weight loss, improved muscle strength, and higher energy levels have been observed. Every workout—short or long—contributes to progress.
- Community: The route included familiar paths and new sections. The scenery rewarded the ride, and a few good photos were captured. It would be great to organize a group ride in the future and share experiences with other cycling enthusiasts.
