Bicycling Introduction

Biking in South Florida

In the time we spend getting to work, we can get the exercise we need, that we claim we "don't have time for." Commuting to work by bike or for neighborhood errands is a great way to get fit and stay healthy. Combined with transit, cycling can also be part of a commute over longer distances. 

Besides having fun and getting healthier, you'll be improving our air quality and reducing traffic congestion. The bicycle is the most energy-efficient form of travel ever devised -- so you'll be reducing energy use and our dependence on fossil fuels.

Bicycling is a great commute alternative. Even just a day or two a week is a great way to save money, get some exercise and be kind to the environment.
