Bike commuting is one of the few things that literally changed my life. I know it’s not an option for many, many people, but if you can do it, give it a go a couple times a week for a month.
What I've gained:
- An appreciation for the bit of world I travel through
- A loathing that so many others are forced to choose The Car
- A respect for Nature. Thunderstorms especially!
- A new sense of self. I know myself in a new and different way. Of how I move, of how I endure, of my limits
