There are two kinds of cyclists in the world – the competitive, fast riders who want a workout and the kind who want to take a slow, breezy ride through the park. Biking is a great date option because it’s perfect for either type of couple.
It’s also easy to spice up this date idea with a bunch of fun destinations and different details. These plans don’t have to be ambitious – simple is almost always better for quality communication and a low-stress event.
