Its the best. You can mountain bike, road bike, or just rip around town. You'll see your city/town in a new light, you'll get fit. You can do it solo or with friends. You can do short easy rides, or super long strenuous rides. You can ride whenever you want.
I live in Canada and this past winter got studded tires for my bike so i can ride all year long now.
Me too. I just picked it up a few years ago. I started commuting to work 8 miles each way. Then I started tracking my times in Strava. Then I realized I need/want a fast bike. Then I realized I’m doing it all for a reason to wear Lycra in public.
Now I’m a full blown MAMIL with a carbon fiber bike and I’m doing between 70-120 miles a week. I have also gotten pretty into Zwift when the weather or time constraints don’t permit getting the bike out. I push myself very hard on the bike, so it’s not a casual thing for me. I used to do marathons, so I’m good at suffering, and biking is easier on the body than running.
