More and more people like bicycling and it is no surprise. It is fun, healthy and good for the
environment. Maybe that's why there are l. 4 billion bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads
worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere , and there is no oil cost !
Get on a bicycle and ride around your neighborhood. You may discover something new all around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stopping and getting out of your car.
You can bike to work and benefit(受益) from the enjoyable exercise without polluting the environment. You don't even have to ride all the way.
Folding(折叠) bikes work well for people who take the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you. You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase.
