I have a new goal.
It will help me realize how good I am at balancing things.
It's a simple goal.
But here, in Holland, it is the difference between arriving at my destination soaking wet or stylish and dry.
My goal is......
To learn to ride a bike one handed while holding an umbrella with the other hand, and still remain balanced.
Okay, so I just made a big deal out of something that seems pretty petty. But, next time you are out riding your bike and get caught in the pouring rain (which happens more often than I care to admit), I bet you'd wish you could do it too.
I have terrible balance. Wish me luck!

I don't know if I could ride a bike and hang an umbrella at the same time but it's interesting to give it a try ;) Sometimes we get surprised about doing things we thought we weren't able to :D
Good luck and keep us informed about your bike/umbrella skills :)
Have a beautiful and so blessed week !
My clumsy arse totally couldn't manage that. Ah ha ha. Good luck!!
That sounds like very acrobatic but yes I hear you. Try Tai Chi. It helps well with balance ;)
I think that is a seriously brilliant goal : )
I love it!
Here is to simple goals and wonderful Tuesdays!
So nice to meet you via SITS this morning!
Good luck girl! I am impressed you are out riding in the rain in the first place! Heres t simple goals!
ya know, when I read about the bike riders from your last post, I wondered how people stayed fashionable. good luck with the balance!!
Popped in from SITS! Good luck! I'd fall over!
I can't even ride a bike with both hands and all of my concentration....I always end up hitting something!!!
Popped in from SITS....don't forget to wear some elbow pads!!!
stopping by from SITS - definitely an admirable goal! and so practical too!
When my husband and I were in Holland before our first son was born, we weren't talented enough to ride a bicycle built for two - we had to go solo. However, I love your goal! The simplest things are often the most beautiful!
I'm still working on this after a year on the bike! I'm ashamed to say I gave up. The wind got me - arm just got too sore, so I opted for wet. Though I have tried rain ponchos, which works better and is more comfortable (though certainly not at all stylish!)
