1. Immediacy of environment - hearing birdsong while sailing through on a silent bike, spotting herons and the occasional peacock.
2. Easy conversation starter - people want to know what you're up to and aren't afraid to ask. Don't know how to chat up the cashier/server/truck stop patron? It's easy: "I rode my bike here!"
3. Can camp anywhere - pulling over is easy, a bike goes everywhere you do
4. Edible fuel - YOU are the engine

ReplyDeleteNo license or insurance required. Don't have to clean the windshield. Don't have to wear a seatbelt. You can spit tobacco without rolling down the window.
