Great sunday errandonnee: errands eight, nine & ten.

A sunny sunday arrived, again with slightly chilly spring wind. We had planned to combine three different things on one great ride: we were to have a lunch, test a new route for Helsinki Cyclists organisation and finally go to a meeting organised by aforementioned organisation. We set a schedule, which we failed, but still managed to do a decent ride :).

First part: Lunch. 
We did have our rare meeting with french fries, but instead of a hamburger, we had tortillas filled with salad, feta cheese & a veggie "steak".

Second part: Test ride. 
With our full stomachs we rode to the Science Center Heureka, starting point for our test ride. Theres kinda cool stone park outside, it's on the both sides of central walkway.

Part three: A meeting.
We had started our ride one hour later than planned and at the end it was starting to get dark. I wasn't worried since we had our lights with us, but I had my sunglasses on, and route was through the forest, Helsinki Central Park (There's lots of nice routes!). World got much lighter when I took my glasses off, such a surprise.  Finally we arrived to the meeting, people had just got started! Thos cyclists! :D They have interesting personalities, I like them a lot.

Meeting took almost two hours, and then it really was dark. We got our lumens to light our way back home. I like riding in the dark when it's not raining. It's kinda soothing.
