Riding huaiyang

A few days ago, the group was shouting "Riding Huaiyang on weekends and watching the lotus flowers in Chenzhou", because I might have to work overtime, so I didn't reply. It was not until Friday afternoon that I decided not to work overtime on Saturday and prepare happily.

On Saturday morning, we packed our things and hurried to the gathering place-Guta Square. Near the departure time-5: 30 in the square, several riders have gathered. The square in the morning is very lively, with morning exercises, dancing and running, mostly elderly people. Getting up early in the day is good for your health! I wonder how many young people can understand and implement it.

It's nearly 5: 40 before departure. Three of them often go out by bike together-Wu Wang, Wen Qi and Hengjie, and the other four don't often go out together. They only know one of them, Uncle Tie Yong, who is very active in the cycling group. We walked for more than ten minutes to get one of them, so we didn't see it until after breakfast.

At about 7: 30, I found a place to have breakfast, but the other four haven't caught up yet. Halfway through breakfast, the staff arrived one after another. One of them had breakfast with us, and the other three were said to have brought dry food and solved it themselves.

Let's start together after breakfast. At this time, as the sun rises, the temperature becomes more and more unbearable. Even on the tree-lined road, I don't feel a chill. Until 10: 30, I passed Taikang county around the outer ring, and it was so hot that I was going to get heatstroke! At this time, Uncle Tie Yong and the four of them don't know how far behind. After contacting, I learned that one of them had low blood sugar, so I found a place to eat. We immediately set a goal-to have lunch in Huaiyang county, so we started on our way.

I rushed to catch up and finally arrived at Huaiyang County before 12:30, and waited for the four of them at the roadside restaurant while eating. It's past 1 30 when I feel heatstroke after eating, and they haven't come yet. I decided to find a place to stay and send a place to wait for them to take a nap. When I woke up, it was already 4: 20 p.m. They haven't come yet at this time, and they didn't know they were resting halfway until they contacted. Without waiting for them, we went directly to Longhu to see the lotus.

When Wen Zige came last year, he noticed a path on the Lotus Observation Deck where he could ride a bike. I rode my bike and touched it with my mobile phone map. I really found it!

I don't know if there are fewer lotus flowers this year than last year or something. This year went more than a week earlier than last year, but the flowers were less than last year, and most of them were defeated, but the feeling of not opening was more than last year. I just turned around, took some photos and was ready to leave.

As soon as they arrived in Huaiyang County, they gave them a place and waited by the roadside. They arrived and showed them the way. We walked slowly and waited for them. Passing by the main entrance of the scenic spot in front, there is a giant carved dragon lake on the roadside, so I stopped to take pictures and wait for them. Take photos after the meeting. After that, it goes without saying, find a place to eat and go back to the hotel to rest.

The sun was so bright yesterday that it rained before going to bed at night and didn't stop until we set out in the morning. I was woken up at six in the morning and didn't sleep well. Reading e-books was a little late last night, so I set off in a daze.

It's raining, the weather is much better, and it's much cooler, so I'll hurry while it's cool. After driving for 20 kilometers, we arrive at Laozhong Town. It's already a quarter past seven, so I stopped to wait for the people behind me to have breakfast. Wait left and right for twenty minutes, but people haven't arrived yet. I didn't know until I called. One of the tires has been flat twice and has been repaired.

Move on after breakfast. Sure enough, because of the weather, the speed was very slow all the way yesterday, and the speed is obviously faster today. It is estimated that it only rained in Huaiyang yesterday. When I arrived in Taikang, there was no trace of rain, or it might have rained lightly and dried up long ago. Fortunately, it's not that hot today.

All the way to ten o'clock, I bought a big watermelon on the roadside, weighing more than twenty kilograms, and eight people almost didn't finish it. Eat watermelon and continue on your way. After eating more than eleven o'clock, the watermelon didn't consume much. At lunch, I didn't have the energy to "gobble" at dinner last night.

After lunch, I went to rest in the hammock that I had been looking forward to yesterday. After taking a nap, I will go straight back to the captain.

To sum up, the round trip is more than 240 kilometers, and with the visit to Huaiyang County, the mileage of * * * is about 260 kilometers.

PS: Along the way, I saw many melon farmers waiting in line for big cars to buy melons. In the hot summer, melons loaded with cars are waiting for buyers aimlessly. Farmers are so helpless and hard!

PS: I rode a trip to Tibet and got used to seeing the blue sky and white clouds. Now I don't think the scenery I see can be called scenery. Without blue sky and white clouds, I have to adapt to the scenery in Henan as soon as possible! Sweat!
