Posted by Reza on Nov 27, '07 2:14 AM for everyone  Why Bike?
Can you think of a more efficient, environmentally sound, energy conserving, quieter, space saving, portable, physical health promoting, social contact stimulating, color-back-in-the-cheeks producing, fun-to-experience vehicle anywhere?
Efficient Transport
Bicycling is the most efficient form of human transportation in existence. Nothing compares to a bicycle for the balance between energy expended compared to the benefits returned to the rider. And all that energy is renewable!
Environmentally friendly
Bicycling does not produce any waste products. Bicycles do not make any noise, and use only a fraction of the space of any other form of transportation.
Good for your health
Bicycling exercises your entire body including back and leg muscles, respiratory and circulatory systems, and bicycling promotes better balance and endurance.
Portability With Commuter Bike you can take your own transportation with you wherever you go! (Carrying case provided!) Take your bicycle onto the plane, train or bus. Try doing that with any other conventional transport vehicle!
Durability
Bicycles can outlast automobiles because there are so few moving parts to experience wear and tear. Maintenance is easier and less expensive for bicycles.
Social contact
Bicyclists are far more likely to interact with other cyclists. By comparison, automobiles are isolation chambers.
Sure, there are other sources of transportation that have some, or even several of these benefits. But only the bicycle has them all. Don’t you think it is high time that bicycles become more than just vehicles for occasional or recreational use, and evolved into preferred and highly respected sources of mobility?
See why other people think bicycling is a better choice and share your story about why you ride instead of drive.
