Go Cycling at the Beach
Living in Bangkok can make it difficult to stay healthy. Unless you live in a condo with access to a fitness room or a swimming pool, you may have to join a gym or take to the streets for your exercise.
Taking frequent weekend holidays to Pattaya or Hua Hin is an alternative way to spice up an exercise routine. These seaside towns are relatively close to Bangkok and have long stretches of beach with roads and paths running along them and plenty of fresh ocean air to enjoy. They’re a much better and safer alternative to cycling on the crowded streets of Bangkok.
A biking excursion is also an excellent way for a family to spend time together. You don’t have to pack your car full of bikes or buy a bicycle roof rack either. In Pattaya, simply reserve a bicycle at Venture Bike Hire. In Hua Hin, you have your choice of four bike rental shops. Road Bike Rentals, Tour de Asia, Thailand Cycle Tours and Velo Thailand all have quality bicycles you can rent for a day of cycling along the beach.
Getting Addicted to Cycling
The thing about new trying any new activity is that you might enjoy it to the point of getting addicted to it. Particularly in the area around Hua Hin, there are many routes you can explore and several national parks to discover. The more you ride, the more you’ll want your own bike and the proper equipment to make your trips more comfortable.
Investing in your own bike enables you to bike for longer each trip and enjoy the trips more. The more you get in shape, the further you’ll want to ride. But the way to find out if the sport is for you is to take a weekend with your family or friends and head to the beach for some cycling.
