Riding your bicycle has more benefit than you think

Transport sustainability

We know it is fun to ride a bike and we see families enjoying a pleasurable ride along the linear park at weekends. There is more benefit: For each 100 kilometres a commuter cyclist rides, the community benefits by more than $70 in avoided congestion and other road costs, as well as health improvements. Have a look at www.cyclingpromotion.com.au and you will see how cycling saves money, improves air quality, reduces noise, improves health and reduces health costs. An overall benefit to our quality of life and that of our neighbourhood.
