I like that it is free and you can reach further places than walking and I like going down hills where I don't have to pedal.
Are you thinking of starting up cycling? It's really great. You can go from place to place AND get exercise at the same time.
Let's see. I love the raw feeling of speed, knowing that it's being originated by your own body rather than a mechanical engine. I love the feeling of topping a mountain / mountain pass - while I can also hike up, cycling is much faster. I also love how you can quickly get out of the city and enjoy nature & countryside / mountains / lakes - not such an easy feat with, say, running - since you'd still have to drive out of town. Last but not least, I also like its competitive side (I used to compete up to professional level, I stopped 2 years ago), with moderation - leaving behind all your opponents during a hard climb can make you feel great.
Road biking? Commuting? Mtb? What kind are you doing?
I started road biking about 5 years ago. I love it, and I love to tinker with the bike.
it's my main mode of transportation at the moment... I like the feel of the wind on my face and the fact that I can take shortcuts that those in vehicles can't!
I also like not having to pay for gas for it and not having to deal with traffic jams!
wow... how ARE you supposed to get around when drinking?!?
that's just plain EVIL in a town with a terrible public transportation system!
oh no!!! I know certain areas here where cops would just line up on the tour route to breathalize and arrest people! :horor:
I'm starting to think that the cops are alligned with the taxi industry
*whatever recalls trying to ride her bicycle with the kickstand down once in college after a party*
for a good enough kickback that could line our pockets AND fulfill any evilness that needs an outlet!
