Not only is bike riding great exercise but it's great for the soul and body.
Remember as a child how excited you were to ride your bike. Whether you are riding to the park or in front of the house, you were one happy camper. Feeling free while the wind blows your cheeks back and oh your hair.
Coming from a "car culture", you are not taking the time to enjoy nature. All you hear is horn beeping, people rushing or those Sunday drivers. This causes stress level to rise!
But how does bike riding make you happy? Simple! We don't realized our happiness also depends on the state of our bodies. Biking helps you sleep better, makes your heart stronger, improves your skin and brain health. It just makes you feel great overall! So now ask yourself why am I not riding a bike??
