  • Following lunch, continue along your route, stopping wherever catches your eye. As afternoon turns into evening, find a peaceful park for a quick pit stop. Reflect on your day so far, and revel in the peace that only nature can bring. Perhaps even spot some local wildlife.
  • End the day by returning your bikes and heading home. Filled with memories of a romantic day filled with natural beauty, adventure, and great company.

Preparation steps:

  • To prepare for this date, you'll want to check the weather and dress appropriately. Make sure you're comfortable for biking and sitting outdoors. Pack a picnic with all of your favorite snacks and drinks. Don't forget a picnic blanket!
  • Next, plan your route. Explore the areas around Hyde Park, Regent's Park, and Kensington Gardens. These parks not only provide excellent picnic spots but are also located at scenic parts of the Thames.
  • Lastly, make sure to have enough cash or a credit card for the bike rentals. Check the operation hours in advance and plan your day accordingly so that you have ample time for your picnic, pit stops, and the ride itself.

Some tips:

  • If you're planning this date, it's important to keep a few things in mind. Firstly, make sure that neither of you are allergic to any foods in your picnic. Nothing ruins a date faster than an unexpected reaction.
  • Next, while this date is relaxed, don't forget to bring a portable charger for your phone or camera to catch those candid moments. It's an easy thing to forget but can make a huge difference in capturing the memories.
  • Finally, as you'll be spending a good chunk of the day outside, remember to pack some sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to protect you from the sun. Also, a light windbreaker can come handy in case the weather turns on you while you are outdoors. It could seem like a lot, but everything should comfortably fit in a backpack.
