Unit 14 Cycling
David likes cycling very much. He belongs to a cycling club, and almost every Saturday afternoon, he goes off on his bicycle with his friends. In summer he takes his little tent and his stove with him, and camps in some beautiful place in the country. When it rains, it is not very pleasant, but when the sun shines and the weather is warm, camping is very nice. David and his friends cook their meal on their little stoves, make a fire and then sing round it until it is almost midnight. Then they get under their blankets in their little tents and go to sleep.
Sometimes there are bicycle races and David goes to see them.
They are very interesting. Sometimes David’s big brother, George, rides in these races. Once he won a race and got a beautiful silver cup. David was very happy.
David wants to take his bicycle to Germany next summer. He will go from England to Belgium by ship and then ride to Cologne on his bicycle. He will go with some of his friends from the cycling club. They will camp every night. Cycling and camping are quite cheap, and David’s father will give him money for the ship. He will have a very good time, I think.
