Anyone who has squeezed through the subway knows that the subway is crowded with people and is often pushed up and down; As for public transportation, it is common that it is as fast as a tortoise during rush hours. If you are driving at this time, it is absolutely impossible to simply get off and walk, although walking speed is much faster than taking a bus; If the distance is not long, walking is perfect. It's just that for a short distance, the walking time to and from work is too long, which is not worth the candle.
After much consideration, since the distance is less than 6 kilometers, I decided to go to work by bike. Although it is a helpless move, there are many practical benefits.
First of all, the riding speed is moderate, much faster than walking and slightly slower than public transportation. If traffic lights and detours are considered, riding time is equal to driving or bus time, but it is better than freedom.
Secondly, cycling is a very good exercise, which can enhance cardiovascular function. As aerobic exercise, it can improve human metabolism and immunity, and play a role in fitness and cancer prevention. For busy people, if they can do their work and exercise correctly, it will be the best of both worlds.
Third, because riding a bike, you don't have to seize public transportation, which can be said to contribute to environmental protection.
Although commuting by bike is healthy and environmentally friendly, it is not completely worry-free?
First of all, there is a lot of cycling and a lot of natural sweating, especially in summer. If the company doesn't have a place to take a bath, and it stinks and sweats at work every day, wouldn't it be self-destructive?
Secondly, riding safety is also a problem, especially in complex areas, which requires caution.
Third, although cycling is a good exercise, it has an impact on prostate and other parts. If you are not careful, you may lose more than you gain. At the same time, if the air on the road is not good, it will also have a great impact on the lungs.
As the saying goes, everything has advantages and disadvantages, depending on how to choose, but if you love cycling, go ahead, but a good bike, relatively complete equipment and good driving habits are essential.
