Advantages Perhaps the greatest advantage of bicycling is that it can take you long distances, past interesting scenery. Looking forward to reaching a destination and having interesting things to look at along the way, make bicycling quite pleasurable, especially for people who are quickly bored by the monotony of other activities. Cycling is further enhanced by its appeal to the whole family. Children can also participate, making it a great group activity. It requires expensive equipment, specifically a well-tuned bicycle and assorted accessories that are recommended for bicycling.
Bicycles can be troublesome to maintain and can malfunction during a ride.
Cycling also requires access to long stretches of well-paved roads or trails, which presents the risk of injury from falls and collisions. A certain skill level is necessary in order to bicycle competently. Where to Participate Ideally, you should start out on relatively flat, paved roadway where traffic is minimal. Hilly terrain can be added as your fitness level increases. For all-terrain cycling, begin on trails that aren't too steep or uneven.
