Cycling

In an effort to promote green lifestyle, I deliberately devote myself in promoting cycling as an environmentally friendly culture that should be adopted by people around the world. I have written articles that are related to cycling, and mountain biking. I ride my bicycle every afternoons and sometimes in the morning to raise awareness among the city dwellers of Manokwari about the importance of cycling to reduce CO2 emissions and to improve our health. Some of the Indonesian language version are presented in this blog but many other English language articles can be seen in my Englishland website,  blogs, and Hubpages profile. If you do not know where to read them, here are the links that you can click to read the stories.

• Bike to work following Dutch habit and Cuban Experience

I know that our society has been addicted fossil fuel through their driving cars or riding motorcycle cultures. But I believe that if we relentlessly promote cycling to our society by showing its health, environmental and economic benefits, people will buy bicycles and begin to paddle them around their cities and towns.

After reading the above articles, I really hope that if you haven’t ride bicycles in the past few years, you can now consider of buying one and start riding it today. Bicycle is not an old fashioned means of transportation. In the contrary, it is our vehicle of tomorrow. We can have cleaner air, better health and improved financial condition. by Charles Roring
