This Friday, May 14th tens of thousands of people will ride their bike to work as part of National Bike to Work Day, coinciding with Bike Month NYC. If you haven’t dusted off your saddle this year, Bike to Work Day is the perfect opportunity to gather your colleagues, pump up your tires and hit the road! Here are a few other reasons, biking to work is so great:
- It’s good for your heart. Bicycle riding is fantastic exercise and a sport you can enjoy with family and friends. Just remember to always wear a helmet!
- It’s inexpensive and reliable. Take a break from the subway and cabs and save on transit fares this summer! Biking to work is free and often times faster than mass transit.
- It’s good for our neighborhoods. Less traffic on our streets means less pollution, congestion (honking!) and maintenance.
- It’s great for the environment! Decrease carbon emissions and air pollution by riding your bike when possible.
