CYCLING WHICH IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH.
Cycling is fun, fast, green and healthy. That’s why I want you to spend more time pedalling. Cycling kids are confident kids, more independent and brainier to boot. Just 15 minutes cycling to work or school could make a real difference to your fitness, establishing habits of healthy activity that could be life-long.
Cycling makes you fitter, more alert, cleverer A more active lifestyle now, continued into adulthood, would greatly improve your child’s chance of living a long and healthy life. Physical inactivity is a far greater cause of heart disease than smoking, yet we take it much less seriously. Daily exercise has many immediate benefits as well. They include improved bone strength, muscle tone, healthier joints, increased alertness and improved academic performance. Teachers often comment that children who walk or cycle to school arrive brighter and more ready to learn than those driven by car, and a recent US study showed a positive link between physical activity and performance in school tests.
And don’t let the kids have all the fun, cycle with your children to school. Use the ’school run’ as the kick-start to better health you’ve been planning for ages. Cycling to school will save you money on busfares or petrol and is often quicker than getting into the car and getting snarled up in traffic.
There are many million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing lifts? There are also millions empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing a lifts? 50% of commuters say they would be willing to share a car if they could find someone suitable to travel with.
Commuters should be nice to bike riders, I use my bike EVERY day to work, and any free time. The days are starting to get longer and the weather is getting warmer. Spring is one of the best times of the year to get back on your bike or to start cycling for the first time. There’s nothing better than passing these cars when the traffic is bad. This cycle track on Beacon Hill Road-London Road, Newark, to Newark Nothgate Station. This been a life line to the good people that use the cycle track each day.
Cycling through the traffic – it’s good for the environment and great for your health, I happy to use it each day. On traffic-free routes, particularly in the Newark areas, we are seeing a very significant uptake in use.
The benefits of cycling are far-reaching… Not only does it allow YOU to save time and money, but there are massive benefits to your health and environment too.
Cycling to work or have your Children is a very good going to school is sociable. Cycling encourages independence for me which I have been do for around Newark for the last 11 years.
