The pleasures of cycling

The pleasures of cycling are well documented, as most of us probably still remember the first time we learned to ride a bike, after learning how to balance, its something that you never really forget.

Some of the benefits of cycling are that it is a great recreational activity which helps to keep the mind and body fit and active and, just like going to the gym, it is beneficial for just about every part of the body. If you cycle just for the enjoyment aspect it is a great way to see the countryside that you just don’t experience in the family car.

It is exercise the whole family can enjoy together, or with a group of friends, and Melbourne has some great areas to enjoy for cyclists, some short distances, and for the more experienced riders, longer trips with a few hills to negotiate along the way. Several booklets are available for riders which detail some of the best places to cycle and what you can do and see along the way.

What a great way to get around, in this day of high fuel costs if you can cycle to work it saves money and helps our environment.
