Urban Cycling Trips

If you don’t know me yet, my name is Ana. I live in Lima, Peru and one of my favorite hobbies is to ride bicycles. I used to race in MTB as well as BMX competitions. Thus, I decided to monetize this hobby offering my services on a bike: 
  • Life coaching for women who need to feel empowered.
  • Cycling classes for beginners.
  • Short trips for people who want to have fun.
  • English/Spanish conversation for people who is learning any of these languages.

Delifruit - Icecream!!!

This summer 2011 motivated by my blog I've met many new places, specially to taste good coffee and icecream. This time the turn was of Delifruit, a neighbourhood icecream shop located in a corner, kind of hidden, in the limit beetween Lince and San Isidro. My best friend took me to the icecream shop to spoil me a little (this term sounds porn for me but I don't know any other way to say "engreir" in english) since I looked badly injured after my bike accident. I didn't like to find out the hours of opening published in their webpage are totally different than the real ones. For example, they say in their webpage they attend from monday to saturday until 8:00 p.m. and sundays until 6:00pm. At the door we confirmed they attend from monday to sunday until 7:00 pm. The icecream was OK, not good enough for me, but still tasty. The presentation was so poor, they served us in a coffee cup to take away (3 scoops) and in the coffee cup top (2 scoops), not atractive at all. The cafeteria is really small, it doesn't invite you to stay there. But there's something positive to highlight about Delifruit, this place has winned its public, many people young and older who look from the neighbor that ask for icecream to take away. In my opinion there's still a long way for Delifruit to become a recognized icecream shop or cafe, but GO!. The advertisment and the webpage is really well done without considering the incorrect info about opening hours.

Here the photos (post accident)

Parque Castilla - Running park in Lince

Today I was in Lince and I posted some things about that in my previous post. I also told you before that I love running so I like to proove different routes to run. In fact, in this post I'm going to tell you about a large green park in Cesar Vallejo Avenue toward the Santos Dumont's park. This parks is named Parque Castilla and by me is a running park. You know  that to run is better to do it in a place there are a lot of trees so that you can breath pure air and your lungs will thank you....sooooo I found this point as an alternative to change my running routes. The area is safe. In the morning there are many people running there, at the afternoon I have seen very few people but the area is still safe, at the evening don't pick this park it's kind of dark and I don't know if it's safe but you know what the grandmom says: never go to dark an lonely places. If you want to run at night better choose Miraflores. Once, I run at 12:00 am with one friend a big part of the Costa Verde. I must admit it was frightening so imagine my adrenaline, of course I was stoned.

Photos taken by me:

Santos Dumont Park - When a simplest thing is just beautiful

Today I went to eat at the Blue Moon. After that I walked in a place I'd like to live, Lince. This is located in Cesar Vallejo Avenue. Starting by that I love Vallejo's poetry. Beside that there's two beautiful and large parks. Since my point of view one is specially designed for running and the other for family or couples enterteinment. In this post I'm going to tell you about one of the parks called in spanish Parque Santos Dumont, in the next post I'll talk about the running park. I know the pictures talk themselves then you will agree with me in the point this park is just amazing. I've never been in the United States so I can imagine an american native reading my blog can think it's not something to be surprised or maybe agree with me, I just don't know and don't care at all =P . In Lima close to my house there'are not so many parks as magical as this, I've never seen parks like this in Miraflores or San Isidro, and the nice parks ove there have the flower or candy's sellers I hate (they always interrupt). Thus, I never see this park so crowded, at the afternoon the lake can turn very romantic, there're a mini-gym outdoor and a playground for children and adults. It looks like a country club and the best of all a lot of things are free or very cheap. I take many photos this time and hope you enjoy this park as much as me. I wonder how simplest thing as walking may turn into a moment to remember.

Let's see:
