Many kilometers of traffic jams and a huge crowd of people in the metro more and more often makes a modern person think about buying a bicycle. The advantages of this two-wheeled vehicle are numerous. Let's talk about the main ones.
Ecology
The bicycle is the most environmentally friendly transport in the world, along with the scooter. You do not have to refuel your vehicle every time. Even the electric front wheel drive, which is sometimes installed on bicycles, does not make it any less environmentally friendly.
Saving
The bicycle owner is deeply indifferent to fluctuations in gasoline prices. The driving force of his transport is his legs, which do not use combustible materials. At the same time, bicycle parts that are out of order cost much less than machine parts. And you can install them on your own, having only basic knowledge of bicycles, while on a car, not everyone will be able to sort out the carburetor or replace the oil seals.
Health benefits
First, the bike trains the legs. Strong and resilient legs won't get in the way of anyone, especially if you often have to climb stairs or take long walks.
Secondly, a bicycle can help you shed those extra pounds - a lot of calories are burned during cycling. Thirdly, during a bike ride, the cardiovascular system and lungs are trained.
