I cannot imagine NOT riding.

For me, it is just the easiest way to get around. Cities are crowded. Parking is expensive. I struggled for a long time on public transportation, which never runs on schedule, but resisted getting a bike for a long time because I have a small apartment and nowhere to store it. But that all changed last year when I got a folding bike (it seems so obvious, doesn't it?). Now I ride absolutely everywhere.

Same here, Eric. I think it is a part of all of us who love the bike. As we say over here at Loving the Bike….doesn’t everything in life revolve around the bike?

Exactly, Anthony. I would be so messed up if I didn’t have the time I spend on my bike.

Wow, what great reason Susan. I love the “wash out my brain” response. Thanks for sharing this.

I ride to challenge myself. I ride for fun. I ride to get to work and to get home. I ride to see, hear, smell, feel, and experience the world in a way I never can when I drive in a car. Sometimes I ride to wash out my brain. The rhythmic and continuous turning of the cranks is like turning a key in a lock and opening the door to let out the worry and pent up feelings of the day. I ride because I can. I ride because I love it.

My reasons are simple. So much so that its how I always describe myself as a cyclist. “I ride a bike. Mostly commuting, sometimes recreational, Always for fun.”
Ride Safe.
