I recently moved to a new city and don’t know anybody here yet.

I want to try out some things and meet new people and avoid sitting at home all day (but sometimes is ok)

My ideas are hiking, volunteering and reading. What would you recommend? Any good ideas?

    Cycling. You can get decent bikes second hand for pretty cheap. There’s no better way to get to know an area than by cycling. Provided, of course, there are reasonably safe roads and cycling paths available.

      Cycling can be such a great way to extend your range of activities without having to pay a lot! My new place is quite bikeable. Although there are places which I would rather avoid, especially closer to the city center.

      I really dislike searching online for good second hand options though. Seems like most people here use facebook marketplace, and I’d rather avoid spending too much time browsing for the right bike. (I’m pretty tall. so not always easy to find something.)
