Cambridge English First Practice: Article - My favourite hobby

Task: Write an essay in 140-190 words in an appropriate style on the topic above.

Just imagine having a hobby that fills you completely and makes you stronger and healthier. Well, that's how I feel about cycling.

I learned how to cycle when I was five years old, in my grandmother's garden. My father is a passionate cyclist, so he's to blame for me falling in love with this sport! Since then, every weekend we go to Ada Ciganlija and do a little bit of cycling. My father and I spend so much time outdoors not only having fun, but also doing something good for ourselves.

My passion for cycling started as a hobby, but has turned into a way of life. For me, cycling means freedom and that's the main reason why I enjoy it so much. Being out in the fresh air, having fun and spending quality time with my parents is something cycling gives me and I'm very thankful for that.
