| Which is a better choice, a sports car or a sports bike? |
With the growing popularity of cycling, it's inevitable that people will compare bikes to cars. If you’ve ever wondered which is better, a sports car or a sports bike, wonder no more. Here are some reasons why cycling is better than driving.
The bike is good for the environment
A driving with an engine emits carbon dioxide and other harmful gases into the air. Those gases contribute to global warming. A bike on the other hand, emits very little air pollutants. It is also a clean and healthy alternative to other forms of transport. You are putting less wear and tear on the car Car companies have perfected the use of plastic and composites, which makes cars stronger and safe than ever. You also need roads, and roads need maintenance, not to mention a team of mechanics to maintain your car and fix the damage caused by drivers. There are over 7 million active cyclists in the UK alone. This is an increase of 13% since 2007. In addition, over 35 million people cycle in Europe every week.
Cycling is more practical than car ownership
If you’re going to be out in the countryside, especially in the winter months, you’ll have to find a car-share scheme. These are pretty expensive, and they’re a hassle too. Instead, why not use the bike? If you want a car in the countryside you’ll often need to book several weeks in advance. You’ll also need to hire one to get to the area, and hire another to get home. You can make it all simpler and cheaper if you cycle, saving both money and hassle. Cycling can make you a healthier person Healthier people are more productive. Many of the big insurers now use body mass index to compare health risks. If you’re obese, you’re more likely to have a health problem, making it difficult for you to work and have the energy to do all the activities that are important to you.
Cycling is healthier than driving
When you choose to commute, one of the best things you can do is to choose the most active form of transport. It’s no secret that when we move our bodies, we release endorphins that make us feel happier. You can achieve the same result while cycling. In fact, in 2012, over a hundred people were killed in road accidents in the UK. That means each year more than 1,000 people die due to accidents in the UK. Cycling gives you the option to exercise and it can improve your health. Don’t want to be cut off from the rest of the world I have the privilege of travelling to many countries across the globe. But the thing I love about cycling the most is being able to travel without having to worry about driving and having to deal with the stress of worrying about driving.
Cycling is cheaper than owning a car
If you use your bike for daily transportation, you save money on gas, insurance and maintenance. Furthermore, cycling may even save you money on maintenance because it requires less mechanical knowledge and you don’t have to worry about that towing a car in a garage. An activity for the entire family When you’re on your bike, you’re active all day long. Cycling is a great workout for your legs, butt, back and arms. So, not only are you physically active, but you’re also mentally engaged. Although owning a car might be convenient, it can be quite expensive. Cars are heavily regulated by a government, and as a result, a lot of research, innovation and brain power is required. You don’t have to commute for long Transportation by car, bus or train can be time consuming and tiresome.
There are no gas or insurance costs for cycling
If you want to save some serious cash on your gas budget, you can look into getting a bicycle. Sports cars and sport bikes both need a lot of fuel to run their engines. The average sports car needs around 19.8 liters of gasoline to travel around 40 kilometers, while the average sport bike requires a whopping 49 liters of gasoline for the same amount of distance. This means that when you're driving a car, you're paying in the region of $0.30 per liter of gas and $0.15 per liter of diesel fuel, which is a little under $3.00, for your car. On the other hand, the average cost of a complete bike is less than $300, which means that once you've paid for the bike itself, you're only paying in the region of $0.09 per liter of fuel.
It's easier to bike in big cities
The cities in North America are huge. Most people only have time to drive to work and go home. Biking is great for commuting in cities with a population of more than 100,000 people. If you commute regularly in a city of that size, it’s worth investing in a bike.
Conclusion
We know that not everyone is going to want to cycle, and that's totally fine. For a lot of people, cycling is still a hard sell. And if it isn’t a bike they want, how can we expect them to get used to the idea of cycling? But if you're one of the people who can’t wait to try out a bike, then we encourage you to give cycling a try. If you do, your health and your well-being wi
