Bicycles Are Not Just For Kids!
There are so many people out there that think that riding a bicycle is a bit like acting like you were in your early years again. However is this really true or are these people being a bit childish themselves?
I can see their point in certain ways, some of the cycling clothing does look a bit out there and those cycling shoes look simply ridiculous on some of the people that wear them.
I have taken a look at their point and they are without doubt, wrong. Why is someone riding to work, getting exercise and enjoying the morning air acting like they are still a small child? The people that are thinking like this tend to be slightly overweight, unable to ride a bike or just arrogant. They are the people that tend to drive to work in the morning whilst having a nice puff on a cigarette and tucking into a nice fast food morning meal. How nice does that sound!
Other Reasons People Associate Bikes With Children
One of the other reasons this argument comes up is because many people have not been on a bike since they were in their younger years. learning to ride of bike is one of the first things your parents will teach you, many people will not remember the older days of learning to walk and talk. It is safe to say that the majority of adults do not remember the times where they were in nappies and those training wheels is one of the first memories that must pop into the head.
Perhaps you had a fall when you were younger and have never had the guts to get on a bike again so automatically hate them, hey it happens.
The real truth is that bikes are certainly not for kids and by riding one you are helping the environment and there are going to be more and more of them on the road soon.
Get on those road bikes and get riding!
