I got this idea to go office by cycle long back. But I was not sure if I can do that. Because the distance to office from home is over 6 km. I have gone to school in cycle but it is just 3km. After serious thinking, I decided to go for it. Bought a new cycle for 4.5K. It has been 2 months now and the journey is smooth. Following are the advantages when you cycle.
I would like to recommend everyone to use cycle instead of going for a bike if you live within 5km radius of your office
- I save money in bus travel (the govt recently hiked the bus charge) and on the gym. I save 1000 plus a month.
- Cycling is really good for health. Instead of spending money for gym, you can cycle for one hour everyday (I cycle for one and half hour)
- You become one of the few non-polluters of the environment. Instead of going for bike or part of bus, here you live with the nature and for the nature.
- You get time to be peaceful and think during cycling time. This Bangalore traffic really frustrated me by long waiting time for buses
