Riding a bicycle is not only a great way to get around without adding to the carbon footprint of humanity, but it’s also lots of fun! Below are nine tips on how to incorporate cycling into your healthy lifestyle.

Chose a route you enjoy

Many people I know have admitted to their disdain for a stationary bike versus running or other cardio options. And perhaps this is due to the lack of interest in the scenery.

A great way to enjoy your biking is to choose a route that you know you will enjoy! If you love the sound of the water, pick a path near a beach or river. If you love the smell of trees or fresh cut grass, go for a park path or somewhere near a field. If you love art or architecture, opt for a run through a nearby city. Whatever your soul needs let your bicycle take you there.
