My first years of motherhood almost never included having a coffee at the square as my kid was not much into sitting still, nor chasing the other kids there. So we did other things and it was fine.
But, things change. My almost 5 year old learned to ride her bike and riding her bike is now the top activity. The perfect place to do it, is, of course the square, because there is no traffic. And so, I was having a 2 hour-long coffee break today. Sitting outside, drinking coffee and enjoying the sun.
If she continues this way, it might not take long before she joins the Female Bicycle Group formed today on Facebook. A group of women from the island decided to share their common love for biking and want to get together regularly to train, improve their skills and discover new routes on the island.
The first meeting will be this Sunday March 13 at 9.00 in Stari Grad. You can contact the lovely Jelena Gracin for more information or simply get social on Facebook.
Although the group will mostly be oriented towards female cyclists, men are welcome to join under one condition - women will dictate the tempo.
