If there is such thing as unlearning things, then I am certainly the one to do it. The last I rode a bike in an seriousness would be at a school camp back when I was in middle high school. And today, out of the blue, a friend called up in the morning and invited me to bike riding along the beach. Great, I thought, the beach, the bike, the friends. And of course, the lack of skills and / or practice on the bike.
True to my own words, I have forgotten how to ride! Well, not completely forgotten, but forgotten enough to make a fool out of myself. Give me a big piece of land to maneuver, and I'll be alright, but as the path narrows, and people walking about everywhere, and I had to stop, get off the bike, and stroll. It's something that will take a while to relearn again. At least it was accident-free, except for the fright I gave a kid (and no doubt his parents as well) when I almost ran into them from the back.
Here's hoping I won't forget how to cook. Wait, I never learnt how to cook.
