Bicycling Benefits PDF Print


Bicyling is Eco-friendly

Bicycling is an eco-friendly means of travel. It saves fuel; and reduces noise, air pollution, and your carbon footprint.

Riding a Bike is Economical

Bicycling around the neighborhood could save you hundreds of dollars a year at the gas pump. 

Bicycling is Healthful

Bicycling burns calories, boosts the cardio vascular system, and builds endurance with minimal impact on your body.

Getting on Bicycle is Relaxing

Bicycling offers commuters a unique opportunity for relieving stress after a hard day’s work - a nice alternative to sitting in traffic.

Bicycling is Philanthropic
Bicycling is a fabulous vehicle for supporting your favorite charitable causes. Many nonprofit organizations hold cycling events to raise awareness and needed funds. Meet people with shared concerns and interests.
  
Riding a Bicycling is Fun
Bicycling can be enjoyed alone, with friends and family, a significant other, or with a group. It’s a fun means for exploring your own neighborhood, or touring a new town or city. 

Going Cycling is Free

Hopping on your bike is free!  Oh, but do wear a helmet.
