5 Reasons To Cycle

There are many reasons to cycle, including improving fitness, being environmentally friendly (and cost-effective!), and cycling is definitely an option if you want to escape the traffic jams and go on a two-wheeled adventure. With the return to cycling overdue, give it a try for the first time, or brush up on your outdated skills as we round up the top 5 reasons you should do it.

1. Increase your heart rate

As a low-impact sport, cycling can be easily done by anyone, as long as you know where your weaknesses lie. Besides the obvious health reasons of losing weight and staying fit, cycling regularly (and for considerable distances) has been linked to many long-term health benefits.

2. Steel quads

By cycling regularly, you’ll be able to show off your calves and quads as you get the perfect workout to keep stiff joints at bay and fight arthritis for a truly toned body with stronger muscles.

3. Burn calories, not fuel

Steady cycling helps burn about 300 calories per hour and because it helps build muscle, you will see a significant increase in your metabolic rate. Helping you play your part towards the environment with 0% pollution, cycling is the most environmentally friendly means of transport available.

4. Quality of ‘YOUR’ time

Relieve your stress and tension as cycling is a great mood lifter and helps you improve your exercise as well as enjoyment.

5. Increase your confidence with cool new equipment

Cool cycling gear, from bikes to helmets and everything in between, lets you fully express your personal style while zipping around town on your trusty ride.
