I bike to work for my health and the health of the environment. I do it
to get one more car off the road, to give someone else a good
parking space. I save time because I no longer need to go to the gym and
I never have to sit in bad traffic. I also save money on gas and wear
and tear on my car. I feel sharper when I arrive to work in the morning
and more relaxed when I arrive home at the end of the day. I burn so
many calories I can pretty much eat whatever I want. I bike for all
these reasons, but the one I look forward to the most is getting to see
sights like this on my ride.
It's true I was recently hit by a truck, my
hip was fractured in four places and it was a long road to recovery,
but I'm so happy to be back on a bike. If you're thinking about
commuting on a bike, give it a try. It's so worth it.
