Ride a bike Me, was not among them who supported bikes as a way of transportation. I thought it was useful because you would sweat until the time you arrive at your destination. Also, it seemed to me quite dangerous riding on the roads of a city which are foul of cars. In winter the weather would be a threat too, I was thought. However, all these negative views have completely changed since the day I purchased my own bike. A friend of mine affected me positively by proposing it as a very effective and at the same time entertaining way of work out since you can enjoy the nature, the breeze and the sky! She also gave me to ride her bike for a while. I was astonished by the easiness of handling and the low weight. She explained me that modern bikes are totally different by the old ones since new materials have lessen their total weight. The design was also so attractive. As a result, I began to search on the internet and at bike stores. A week later, I found the proper for me. Since then, I ride every day sometimes twice a day. I feel very sorry when I have to return home. My point of view have totally changed now. I see how environmentally friendly it is. It makes no sound too. You could keep in shape and simultaneously go to the grocery or at a café. You could make your route safe following the bike lanes or riding in a park. An orange vest would make you visible easily and a helmet protect your head as well. In conclusion, I would propose it to others too. Of course you have to be careful and not ride too fast and carelessly. Then, it will give you fan and action.
