Bicycling is a viable form of transportation that can be used for commuting to work or school, running errands, and for recreation.
Bicycling improves physical health and can give a sense of independence and freedom.
Bicycling enhances our ability to experience and interact with the vibrancy of our neighborhoods, villages and towns, something which is very difficult when inside a car.
Bicycling is economically efficient, saving the commuter bicyclist on an annual basis approximately three-quarters the cost of driving.
Bicycling is a renewable, non-polluting form of transportation. Bicycling reduces the consumption of fossil fuels, alleviates traffic congestion, and improves the region's air quality.
