A 10-hour full record of shared bicycle rides around the city

Tianfu Green Road, commonly known as the Green Road around the city. It has this common name because this greenway was built near the Chengdu Ring Expressway. The eastern half of the first phase from Jincheng Lake to Qinglong Lake will be completed in 2020, and the remaining half of the second phase will be completed in January 2022. So far, this "city card" of Chengdu, which has spent tens of billions of dollars, has finally connected the ends of the circles to complete the true "circumvention of the city".

Although it has not been officially delivered for use, and even some paragraphs are still doing auxiliary projects, all runners and cyclists have been itching for a long time. Yes, each shows their magical powers, it's so lively. One day I chatted with Xiao N about this when we were having dinner together. He said otherwise, let's go riding next weekend and call him Xiao Hei. It just hits the spot. After the 318 came back 10 years ago, we never rode together again. In 2015, I made an appointment to ride the small ring road in West Sichuan on National Day, but everyone was timid and finally changed it to a self-driving tour.

Xiao N quickly organized a 5-person riding team, in addition to the three of us, there were Tutu and LEE. The ride was scheduled for Saturday, but the rain started on Thursday night and continued until bedtime on Friday night. Xiao N said that the weather forecast said that the rain stopped at five o'clock in the morning on Saturday. I don't have much confidence in the forecast. Although I say "rain or shine" in my mouth, what I think in my heart is that if I wake up in the morning and it's still falling, I'll go back to sleep.

But the weather forecast is very upbeat. When I was woken up by the alarm at 6:40 in the morning, I opened the curtains and looked out the first time, but the rain was not falling. Just after washing up, Xiao N called. He had arrived at the meeting point ahead of schedule and hurried out.

While eating buns at the meeting point, others arrived one after another. Xiao N prepared a supply bag for us in advance, one bag per person, including water, red bull, cake, etc. Not long after 318 came back, everyone's mountain bikes were stolen or given away. Only shared bicycles could be relied on for this ride.

Because a few days ago, I had the painful experience of being suddenly deducted from the dispatch fee for riding a hello. Although it was unclear, I gave everyone a warning the day before. In the beginning, we all chose Meituan bicycles at the subway station. We didn’t ride for a long time. We saw a few brand-new hellos on the side of the road. They all saw the beautiful women like Zhu Bajie, and threw all warnings out of Jiuxiaoyun. Abandoned Meituan and replaced it with Hello. And it is this change that brings a lot of trouble to the later itinerary. This is a later story.

Before starting from the starting point, a man and a woman were warming up there and asked them to take pictures for us. By the way, they said they were going to run the whole way. 100 kilometers, tsk tsk!

The sky is still gloomy, but after a day and two nights of rain, the air is fresh and the vegetation is green, which makes people look at it and feel happy. At the beginning, the physical strength was good, the mood was high, and the singing was loud and clear. We found out every good red song we could think of and sang it. Now that I think about it, it might be me who started it. Why sing red songs instead of green and blue songs, I can't tell. Maybe a little joking, a little nostalgic. I usually hate red songs, but on some bright occasions, I can't help but think of them. This may be the legendary brainwashing. One day last year, I went to the park in Tianshui with my second sister and my mother, and went to a happy place. My mother also sang "Socialism is Good" casually, and the second sister joined the chorus. I felt embarrassed at the time and quickly distanced myself from them.

Lee's voice is very good, he has a speaker, he has nothing to do, and he will sing in the park with BF. But he is a few years younger than me, and the red songs have less brainwashing him for a few years, and I can't remember many lyrics, so I can only pull the main key. Tutu would suddenly join the chorus, but he was often out of tune to the ends of the earth. A moment ago, we were talking about the joyous scene of Teacher Xu Wei going to Kangxi, which happened to be a joke at this time. He was surprised, huh? Am I out of tune? I said do it all over again, I'll get up, and you'll join later. He still can't make out the sound, and he's still surprised to see us laugh, huh? Isn't it the same? So everyone continued to laugh.

"One Big River" is the pinnacle of the popular song in my opinion. "A big river has wide waves, and the wind blows rice flowers to both sides. My family lives on the boat. I'm used to calling the boat's horn and seeing the white sails on the boat...". "Red Plum Praise" is also good. In 1992, I walked out of the countryside for the first time and went to see a doctor in the provincial capital. This song was playing in the streets and alleys of the provincial capital. Even in my impression, my brother took me back to my hometown all the way, and it was this song that resounded in my ears. "Red plum blossoms on Hongyan, thousands of miles of frost underfoot, what to fear from the severe cold of March 9, a piece of heart opens to the sun..." After listening to the first half of these playlists, you won't think he is a red song, he is like my "Returning Hometown" Remember", which sings about nostalgia and attachment to the homeland.

Lee said, it feels like from "Spring Story", the red song has lost its soul, which marks that our party's propaganda work has begun to turn to blatant flattery praise for brainwashing, and has completely given up heart-to-heart.

On the way, we encountered running groups in twos and threes, some of them came prepared, and there were supply stations at certain points. The northern side is sparsely populated, and there are not many people waiting on the green road in the morning. A team of people, lined up in a mighty line, filled the entire road, and made a gap when we passed by. Asked how many kilometers left and said there were 20 left. Tell them to come on, we still have 80, and some people say that you should come on too.

Unexpectedly, there are large wheat fields in the northwest area. This is the first time I have seen so much wheat in the more than ten years since I moved to Chengdu. Some are already yellow, some are still green. Because of the continuous rain, a lot of wheat fell to the ground. When I was a child, everyone was most afraid of wind and rain during the wheat harvest season. At that time, wheat was top-heavy and easy to fall. The fallen wheat will sprout, and even if it is harvested before it sprouts, the ground flour will lose its glutenous taste and become sticky. Of course, production will also decrease.

I also did not expect that after the wheat fields, there will be large areas of alfalfa. I think it's alfalfa, but not sure, it seems to have longer leaves. A few days ago, my mother and I were talking about alfalfa, missing alfalfa noodles and alfalfa vegetable knots. We were walking in the park, surrounded by green grass. Mom said why there is no alfalfa, if there is, we can pinch some. When I was a child, almost every family planted a small piece of alfalfa. When it was young, I pinch the leaves to cook noodles, steam the vegetables, and then cut them up to feed the animals when they are old. I remember that my mother often wore a blue apron. She rolled the dough before she went to the alfalfa field. She squatted down and pinched the young leaves of the alfalfa. Inside the firewood, scoop water from the tank to clean. Bottom first, and then alfalfa when it is almost ripe. Later, the noodles that came out of the pot were white and green, which was really good-looking. The taste of alfalfa is a bit rough, different from most vegetables, which also allows it to be washed away after thirty or forty years, and it has always stayed on the tip of my tongue. Alfalfa has strong vitality and is not afraid of stepping on it. During the flowering season, all kinds of butterflies fly in the alfalfa field, which is a paradise for children.

It was when he was resting beside a clover field that Xiao N's hello bicycle was automatically locked, and he received a text message on his mobile phone, saying that he had left the service area, and a dispatch fee of 6 yuan would be deducted. Only after calling customer service did I find out that Hello recently made a major adjustment. Cars in a certain area can only ride in this area. If they leave the area, it will be regarded as a violation. If the time exceeds 4 hours, they will be locked by the system and cannot be unlocked in place. Several other people also panicked, and hurriedly looked for a car to replace. Fortunately, Meituan Bicycle was finally found two kilometers away, and the crisis was lifted. At this time, it's time for me to be stunned. What's the matter? I said don't ride a hello and don't listen to the old man! Everyone said that they will pull the black from now on.

The further west you go, the more people there are. There is a section of various snacks placed next to the greenway, crowded, like going to a market.

In Hibiscus Garden, meet the catfish. He lives nearby and plans to ride with us for the remaining 30 kilometers. BF sent him here with his puppy named Pudding. Pudding just finished cleaning my teeth in the morning, and it is said that it cost 800 yuan. I'm dumbfounded, huh? I only have a hundred yuan to clean my teeth, why is it more expensive than me? ! Pudding is still fatter than any corgi I've ever seen, and his body shakes sideways when he runs. The pudding was so cute, I shouted "pudding, pudding" outside the crowd, and the pudding squeezed through the crowd and ran to my feet shaking, I couldn't see its legs, only the fluffy brown cylinder moved.

At the next break, I was stung by a bee. I felt a sting and raised my hand to find a bee clawing at the base of my index finger. Shake off the bee, leaving a stinger attached to a mass of white matter on his hand. A pull, oh roar, broken. I forgot, Catfish remembered that when we were together last time, I also became the target of bees. Oh yes, what's going on? Could it be that I have a natural physique to recruit bees? The black star left in the meat couldn't come out, I sucked it with my mouth, thinking of Ouyang Feng's sausage mouth. Didn't suck it out, just let it go.

At Jincheng Lake, meet Tiange. He had been waiting there for a long time because we were late. At that time, the tallest Lee was overwhelmed with his legs and fell far behind. I told Brother Tian, hurry up and pick him up, he might get excited when he sees you. Brother Tian said nothing and rode in the opposite direction. However, for the next 20 kilometers, he didn't care about his family. With his fresh physical strength, he took the lead until the finish line...

The end point is a big slope, the only "winding mountain road" in the whole circle. After all, Brother Tian was older, so he had to lose, and Xiao N took the top spot. Brother Tian, Maoyu, Tutu, and Lee pushed their carts up the hill, and Xiao Hei almost collapsed at this time, and the last one arrived.

Oh, forgot to say I, myself, second place, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning.

In the end, it took 10 hours (including rest time), traveled 101 kilometers, and circled Chengdu for a week. I've thought about it before, when I'm in a bad mood and don't want to sleep at night, I'll drive around the city for a lap, or two laps, or even keep running until I run out of fuel. Unexpectedly, the first thing to achieve is actually riding. The scenery of the greenway is beautiful. Next time, I hope to spend a few days, walk the whole journey on foot, and experience it slowly. Run? Forget it for now.

After we returned the car, the rain started to fall again. Next, beer hot pot, no problem.
