Cycling

The bicycle has to be one of the most efficient - and fun - machines ever invented! Cycling is also one of the very best forms of exercise, increasing your chances of a long and healthy life. In fact regular cyclists enjoy a fitness level equivalent to being 10 years younger!

Cycling doesn't necessarily have to mean taking longer over a journey. Cyclists often get across town quicker than motorists having to drive in traffic and find parking. 75% of all journeys are less than 5 miles long - easily within half an hour on a bike.
