Long Bikes Rides with an Ostomy

Bike riding is certainly a fun thing to do. It is a great way to exercise and also spend time with people.  Family bike riding is a big thing for many families in this country and lots of us like to be together while doing something.  Staying fit and being with family is just a cool bond to have and I highly suggest giving it a try.  Now if you have a stoma I suggest that you keep up with working out and exercising.  I do suggest you get the correct ostomy supplies and then you will be able to not have any issues.  Just get high quality ostomy supplies and remember to get out and bike.  So what are some of the areas that I like to bike and the types of conditions I like to do it on?

 

The most fun thing to do on a bike to me is mountain biking.  There really is nothing like strapping up the right gear and finding an adventure ride that will shock your senses.  Luckily I live next to one of the best mountain bike trails in the state. Surprisingly it is actually in the city and built around a park that is really nearly unknown and dedicated to biking only. This trail is beautiful and crazy fast.  That is what makes getting out more fun.

 

Adventure and speed can take a regular bike ride and turn it into an adrenaline pumping wild day.  That is the best part of mountain biking and having that fun with family is a great bond and a really good way to increase the family dynamic and go through a lot of lessons. Biking can be hard and painful. If you are tired it takes work and pain to finish off the trail and sometimes it really is not fun. But it is the challenge and overcoming things you may not like to build character and life lessons. Many things in life are really hard. Biking with an ostomy can even be a bit of a challenge, but these are great ways to learn lessons. I love being able to go through it with my family and be able to help when times are hard and learn when they are good as well.

 

Now sometimes it is simply fun to just go out and ride for fun.  My wife and I like to hop on our bikes and go and get ice cream and that is a really fun way to workout, and burn off some of the ice cream we are about to eat and also to talk and get through things that happened in the day and week and some of our future hopes and plans as well. So biking is great and I suggest you get a bike and enjoy the fun that can come with it.
