00:00Making friends as an adult is scary.
00:02Right now my heart's like...
00:08I'm Samantha Andrew, I'm a comedian and performer
00:10and today I'm trying something new.
00:12I am joining a cycling club for the first time.
00:15Good morning, it's 4.30am.
00:17I will be cycling with a pack down St Kilda Beach.
00:20Trying new things at 30. This is 30.
00:22I've got my Lycra on, I've got my Suntory bus coffee.
00:25Let's do this.
00:26Are they there? There's a few of them.
00:28They're all in Lycra.
00:29Team meeting.
00:30Is there anyone here that has not been with us before?
00:33Can I get a raise of hands?
00:35Let's go, before I change my mind.
00:38Quick!
00:40To be honest right now, the pace I'm going,
00:42is this really slow for you?
00:44Coffee pace?
00:45Yep.
00:46Coffee pace, I love that, I'm going coffee pace.
00:49Okay, we're at the halfway point
00:50and I'm genuinely having a good time.
00:52My arms are a little bit sore, but my vibes are high.
00:55We're turning around now and we're heading to the cafe.
00:58This part is even more enjoyable than the start
01:00because I actually feel comfortable on the bike.
01:04Completed.
01:05On the way down, you went well.
01:06On the way back, we went even faster.
01:08Bang. There it is.
01:09To anyone who feels too old or too unfit to do this,
01:12if I can do it, you can do it. Genuinely.
01:14I did it.
01:15I tried something new.
01:16I'm part of the Leica Wearing Cycle Cult now.
01:19I'm actually going to go hang out with my new friends.
01:20So this has been fun, but I have to go.
01:22Yeah, bye-bye.
01:23Bye-bye.
01:23Bye!
