values \u200b\u200bon the bike


move is no doubt that cycling, like any human act is charged with meaning and significance beyond the mere action of pedaling. When you decide to leave the car at the front door or inside the garage, even though everything seems to invite him out for a walk, such as the constant publicity in the media, social pressure to use creating the illusion speed movements linked to social recognition or status, or simply because the public roads are designed for the motor vehicle to the bicycle, when one performs the act of climbing on the saddle to go to the office or shopping, is deploying a series of values \u200b\u200bconsciously or unconsciously, that do not have to give all at once, but that may be present. These, among others are:

1) Environmentalism and holistic consciousness.

2) Citizenship and social responsibility.

3) Education of new generations.

4) Health and physical well-mental.

5) Pragmatism


Let's see this in more detail:


1) Environmentalism and holistic consciousness. By taking the bike (or bus, tram or on foot) instead of the car show respect for our world, the certainty that the individual is not an isolated and independent from the rest of the media, but is part of it and can not live without. It is an act of symbiosis and not parasitism, where the person is dignified itself and goes beyond the pure individual interests, caring for what belongs to everyone. The bike makes us human and integrates us in the middle.

2) Citizenship and social responsibility. When pedaling contribute to make the city more humane, less noisy, cleaner. We are much less tense and this has consequences for one but also in bystanders, who do not suffer the consequences of which could not take thirty minutes by car or caravan. If I meet a friend stop and talk to him and not say "I will continue to back the pita is touching me." Indeed, bikes are not brittle or speakers have timbre, and what extraordinary difference, such as that between a cannon and the campaign of a Zen monastery.

3) Education of new generations. I love getting on my bike to school children, children play great, naturally integrate the experience and understand that if your father will look for a bike, it is logical that when they are slightly higher slippage because of the city . When I talk to young people and break the myth of the car, it is interesting to see how at first incredulous and do not understand why I left the van in the garage and I went to work riding, but then smiles and gives them a new possibility in his mind: they can move on wheels around town although I am not 18 (and no need for a Golf for it).

4) Health and physical well-mental. In using this implicit urban bike, almost without seeking the benefit that you get physically and mentally. This is not the end, but it is a very desirable result, it activates the body, exercising the body, clears the mind. Cycling makes you feel well and oxygenated and whether this is a prize.


5) Pragmatism. Cycling is also a practical matter, faster than any other means travel for many journeys, parking is a matter of seconds, compared to the anxiety and tension to find parking for the car, the cost of a bike is 100 times smaller than a car, fuel costs and $ 0 Maintenance is low relative to the car.
And many values \u200b\u200bthat I have left out ...
