I'm not a cyclist athletically or by passion or anything. It's simply that in the city where I live, bikes are the fastest way to get around. Sure, a car is technically faster getting there (outside rush hour, that is), but parking is a nightmare almost everywhere, so you waste a lot of time parking, and then usually walking from your very-far-away parking spot to where you were actually going. (Unless you use a commercial parking garage and pay an arm and a leg). Public transit is really good, but still, waiting for the next tram or bus and/or changing at the hubs usually takes more time than just taking the bike, at least for most of the places I go to regularly. So, I use my bike pretty much every day, and couldn't help developing an interest. *g*
