    Do you ever feel stuck indoors? You should probably just go out, but sometimes it seems as pointless as doing anything else. Something I've come to realise is that riding bikes for fun is a really good way to turn that frown upside down.
    In this video I ride my garbage bike. It's a single speed coaster brake bike that I keep outside of my house at all times. I usually just use it to go to the grocery store or the train station, but lately I have used it more because none of my other bikes are ridable at the moment. I usually ride fixed gear, because I think it's the most fun.
    Enjoy the video, fellow therapy ride enjoyers! //Addvurt

      ngl gaming does suck if it's the only thing you do. Games are more fun after a day at school, a day at work or after a bike ride.

      Doom scrolling is probably the most common problem. I just decided to present it in a more traditional way: lying on the floor :)

    I really enjoy your videos and the way you speak and get your message across, it’s quite humorous too!
    The weather looks similar the autumn we are having in England at the moment so you are inspiring me to ride, I just wondered what style trousers you are wearing because I always ruin my trousers with grease and I always have to change for my bike ride which can be an annoying barrier from just gettin up and going out for a ride

      Thank you very much! Riding in the english countryside is a bit of a dream for me, at least if it’s not raining ;) I actually don’t have a good solution for long casual pants. They always get black markings eventually. These ones just happen to be new. In my previous videos I use my light blue jeans which were in terrible condition. Then I cut them into shorts. But when I ride less casually, I use tight jogging pants or jogging shorts. I never use bibs.

    I worry that your garbage bike boosting your channel might make you fall in love with the garbage bike, putting you into that 3rd group of people who end up loving their garbage bikes.

      It’s better to love and lose I guess :) im not going to stop riding it to the store or whatever just because I start liking it. It will just hurt more when something happens to it 😢

      I hope everything’s fine! I saw a UA-cam thumbnail today about a 90 year old cyclist. Yeah, you should ride today, but hey, maybe you will ride another 13 years or more :)

    Like @probablyriding puts it: No ride is too short, and if all you do is five minutes, it'll probably be the best five minutes of your day.

      If you want a bike but money is the problem, maybe there is an older relative who would be happy to let you ride their bike. A lot of people have bikes that just stand in a garage.
