It's so cool!!

Btwin ST-100


Hi everyone ✋👩

First of all,in the last 2 weeks my online classes had started and I had a lot of work to do so I wasn't able to update you all for some time. I hope you understand. But now I manage my online classes pretty well and all my homework for the week is done so I can start blogging this weekend 🙌🙌

I mentioned in an earlier blog (My Dream Bike) that I was going to buy my new bike 3 weeks ago. So I went with my dad to Decathlon. There were some rows of chairs, each of them 6ft apart (due to ongoing Covid-19). I was planning to buy a Btwin Riverside bike but unfortunately, I am not a very tall person and that bike was rather high so we had to leave that idea.

Then I came across a Btwin Rockrider. The frame was high but it was built in such a way, that the seat went a long way beyond the frame. I bought an S size (from a choice of XS, S, M, L and XL) and adjusted the seat five fingers from the bottom. This Rockrider was an ST-100 model and had 21 gears. I bought a bottle cage and stand to fit on the bike as well. It also had thumb-shifters to change the gears which are very cool. The catch of buying a new bike that day was that everyone wanted to buy their bikes on that particular day and I had to wait for at least 4 hours to get a 30 minute recheck 😑😑


When I started riding it, it felt much smoother than my last cycle and the handlebars were much higher, so I didn't have to slouch while cycling. I rode it around the layout for an hour. I realized after some time that the seat was uncomfortably hard, so I got a comfy seat cover the next day.


These days I enjoy riding my new cycle a lot. And a big thanks to the people who have asked me to make this blog, I would never have even thought about writing about my new cycle 😄😄

See you in a future blog ✋✋

    That colour looks stunning! Are those 2" or 2.25" tyres? How does it handle broken roads?

      The black, red and white just go so well together.These are 2" tires and it is an MTB so it rides on broken roads pretty well :)

The best trip ever?

This really was amazing!!! Hi reader, Hope you're doing good ;)   So if you have read most of my blogs (If you haven't please check all of them out), you probably know that I travel a lot. I love travel and take every opportunity to go on at least a 30 minute tour. Many of you must be wondering "Hey Diya, of all the places you've gone, which was your most favorite? Maybe it was that beach trip you blogged about earlier or maybe you had a trip abroad that you haven't blogged about yet".   Don't worry, there is an answer to that burning question. For starters I haven't been abroad before so no, it wasn't in Japan or Canada (But I may be able to go when Covid-19 ends). It was actually my trip to Kalimpong, West Bengal that was my favorite.(It was 2 years ago)   Oh, I didn't write about the Kalimpong trip? No problem, let me write about it now.   It went a bit like this… Day - 1

My first ever pets

They are so cute :) Cats are popular pets. They are very playful and energetic. Playing with these animals provides loads of entertainment. Yes, today I will share a story on how I got some unexpected pets. It all started (2 years ago) when my mom found my pram (that I used as a baby) and decided to put it out in our terrace. The next day, I decided to go to the terrace to get my school uniform. I glanced at the pram for a moment and was surprised to see two small kittens in the pram. I told my parents and I fed them some milk. After I came from school, I saw that their mom had come and just gave some and left the terrace. I decided to name one Oscar and the other Oreo (unfortunately they look exactly the same in photos so it's hard to differentiate) I enjoyed a lot with Oscar and Oreo. Oscar was a mischievous kitten, who kept walking about the terrace garden. Oreo was a scaredy-cat (no pun intended) and never got out of the pram. Even with their differences, they got along well an

You really should try it! Hi reader, Nice to see you again :) Pickling is normally used to preserve food so that it stays fresh for a long time. But pickling particular veggies can make a delicious and healthy snack. Normally a lot of restaurants serve this delicious snack for a hefty price. But why spend so much money for it when you can just make them them at home? Yes, this blog is about how you can make your own pickles. Ingredients:- Some cucumber, carrot and green chilies (add how much ever you like) 2-3 cloves of garlic White vinegar (you can also use apple-cider vinegar) 1 tbs salt 1 tbs sugar Spices (anything not too strong-smelling) Container (heatproof glass jar recommended)  Instructions:- Cut all your veggies (you can cut them length-wise, breadth-wise or leave them whole) and put them in your chosen container Add 1 tbs of salt and sugar to the veggies and garlic Take some water (enough to fill 3/4 of the container) and boil it.
