6 reasons to choose the bike for you and for others

Appeasement, safety and coexistence of modes of transport: the key role of the bicycle

Why switch to bike ? Why travel by bike every day? Why prefer the bicycle to other means of transport? To know the advantages and the key role of the bicycle, follow this guide.

1. Cycling and Health

   The health benefits of cycling are well established. It is the ideal sport to keep in shape and to reduce the risk of mortality linked to overweight and cardiovascular disease. Through daily cycling, you can increase your muscle strength and improve your blood circulation.
   You can also become more resistant to fatigue and you can gain better quality sleep. Finally, we must not forget that the cycling also allows to evacuate the stress and to fight against the depression.

2. Cycling and Wellness

   Cycling is also beneficial for well-being. It guarantees true calm and pleasure. Like yoga, it allows you to favor a relaxed rhythm, to take time for yourself, to relieve stress, to get in touch with nature and to have full awareness of the body and the present moment. This promotes a good mood and guarantees a good day.

3. Cycling and Environment

   As part of clean and green mobility, cycling does not pollute the environment. It does not work with fossil fuels or technologies that consume rare metals. So it allows you to do something for the planet and take care of nature. In addition, the bike does not emit noise either (noise pollution) and it does not cause traffic jams.

4. Cycling and Safety

   Question security, the bike is not very accident-prone. It is rare to find bicycle accidents on French cycle facilities. And even in the event of a fall or collision, the injuries are less serious than those caused by motorcycle or car accidents. This makes cycling a rational choice in terms of safety.

5. Cycling and Tourism

   Cycling also allows for sightseeing. It gives you the opportunity to discover your city differently and to make excursions on the greenways. Nothing effectively prevents you from taking routes other than those you are used to in order to discover other landscapes and other sites.

6. Coexistence of non-motorized mobility

   Finally, with regard to the cohabitation of the different modes of transport, the greenways are dedicated to all non-motorized mobility. Thus, they can therefore be used by cyclists as well as by pedestrians, horses and people with reduced mobility. They are suitable even for people who move around with rollerblades, as they are well laid out.

By bike, you can multiply experiences and encounters!
