10/22 Riding Bikes

Do you like riding bikes?

Riding bikes is all the rage in Korea these days. Many more people are riding their bikes. It`s a great way to get some exercise. Plus, it`s a lot of fun to ride with other people. I have actually joined a biking club. We get together every weekend to ride together. We most often take our bikes out to the riverside park along the Han River. When I ride bikes, I always put on protective gear. I put on a helmet, knee pads, and elbow pads. My bike is just an ordinary bike. It`s not that pricey, but some of my friends own bikes that are really expensive.

@ Speaking Tips: get some exercise  운동이 되게 하다

get 동사는 '~이 되게 하다'의 뉘앙스가 있다. get some exercise는 '운동이 되게 하다'의 의미를 가지고 있고, 운동 삼아서 무엇인가를 한다고 할 때 사용하기가 좋다.

Ex> I walk my dog to get some exercise every day.
