The Denver region is beautiful, with great facilities for biking-not just for recreation, but as transportation. Give it a try: let Way to Go show you how easy it can be.
Been doing it for 4 weeks now. Planned to do it this summer for weight loss, but when my car started acting up beyond what I already knew was a repair bill , so I was like....fux it. Despite taking longer to get in, I feel more relaxed mentally, even if I'm sweating my arse off. No more jockeying for position, or getting stuck behind people holding the passing lane at 10 under the limit, just me, the road, and the scenery...and the same old red lights you'll curse anyway. Oh...and one nasty hill on the ride home, that has taught me the importance of checking where the wind will blow from ;) This all said with the caveat that there is public transportation as an option in my case, that can haul both me and my bike. A plan b is important ;)
Wow, actually this is a sustainable solution. Agreed 100% with you!!! With bikes we can build a world without bad road accidents,air pollution ,sound pollution. no time wasting road traffics ,no sugar or cholesterol 😊👍, no worries with others, friendly to your pocket , and many more.... eventually it makes you happy.!!!! Love from sri lanka 👍
I hope to do the same one day. I already bike to work, but there is little to no public transit in my area and I don't want to have to bug my parents for car rides. One day if I move to an area with better trains and buses I can make it work I'm certain.
I have been riding a bike now for 65 years, got knocked off twice in that time ?, The government can't or won't make the effort to cater for bicycle's because the motorist give the Hiaracy so much in income, where as most cyclist's don't even have insurance ? only pay tax when bying the bike if bought new & when bying parts if doing repairs them selves, my bike is approxamately 92 years old, how much has the government lost in car revenue in the time the bike was bought ? Love to everbody keep safe, carry on riding.
Got rid of my vehicle because the time after time most owners of workshop in Singapore (cost of living and rental) rip customers after servicing. And in Sg, its mostly about status and impression one makes for others to see.
I have to change my shirt when I get to work from cycling, and I wash my back a little as it gets sweaty from rucksack. I wouldn't wanna be doing that if I was working in an office really. Also, when it rains, or when it's freezing cold, being on a bike is horrible. I just put up with it though.
No. Electric bikes are awesome. Studies shows that people on electric bike do much more kilometers per year compared to people on normal bike. Also electric bike uses less energy per kilometer compared to normal bike. Yes, it is true. Electric motor is much more efficient compared to out muscles, it has 90 % efficency, compared to just 20 do 30 % for our muschles, not to mention huge amount of energy required to produce, ship and process food.
@@drister007 "Electric bikes are awesome." No, muscellated bikes are unsurpassed. musculatory bikes help to improve physical condition, strengthen leg muscles, keep yer heart in excellent shape. No elec. needed, they coast next-to-nothing per km/mi. Travelling at a normal speed (ca. 15-20 k/H) helps to get a good, safe grip&view of the trafficsituation. They're as quiet as electrified cycles but their 'technology' is much simpler - easy to repair if/when needed. There isn't a friendlier MoT than yer normal 2Wheeler.
@@lichtloper "No, muscellated bikes are unsurpassed. " No they are not. Multiple studies and tests shows that on ebike you get the same excersise, just your speed is higher.

I want to cycle to school and i have 4 second hand bikes but they're all shit in their own special way and it'll take an hour and i'm not a morning person. I wish i could, and i'm working on it.
@@tinaloye2014 Cars are uncomfortable too... Narrow streets, people cutting you off, slamming brake checks. Not fun! I think bicycles are comfortable when you get the right fit. Not just any Walmart bike, but a bike designed to fit you. Expect to spend at least $400/$600 for something entry level that will suit you. The rest of us need to lobby for bicycle infastructure that displaces the car in our cities, thus making our cities walkable again! Thanks!
@@tinaloye2014 Why you think it is uncomfortable experience, because of cars and not enough protected bike lanes or because of exercise? If it is because of exercise you can get an electric bike and set how much you want an electric motor to help you.
I have to put my bike on bus going to work because it is too dangerous otherwise... Even riding on sidewalks is dangerous, cars do not look for pedestrians going into/out of parking lots... Hit twice...
60% of all people who drove by bike to work missed commuting during tje pandemic, while from the people who commuted by car it was only 20% who missed it. People who commute by bike are prooven to have on average a more enjoyable expirience. Dogs can get transported by bike too, there are dog holders for bike. You can useearplugs as stereo, but you dont even need them because during biking you arent constantly bored like it is the case with driving, because you actually have something to do
Made the sudden switch from public transportation to biking to work, I'm happier now
62 years old. Bought a bicycle for work and around town shopping and everything I can do without a car. My car is for rain out days and emergencies.
What's good about biking is that you appreciate your surroundings more, healthy for you and healthy for the environment.
IM YOU FROM THE FUTURE

My bike will be delivered this Wednesday and this will be the last time I drive a car . Am looking forward 2 it
Absolutely brilliant 👍Good luck my friend !!! 👍
Me too, more ride less car,
I guarantee you’ve driven your car since this comment.
The last time you will ever drive a car???
Hope it is going well. I have found that I am too tired to ride the 22 miles round trip every day. So I switched to an e-bike

So glad I sold my car.
I appreciate you! What a valuable and sustainable decision !!👍

This looks real fun. Wish to implement the same at my place.
😎 video.more bikes less car's

Short, but it’s great
So nice
Always be happy my dear
My prayers always with you
Take care of yourself
Thanks
Good choose. 👍👍👍
Yep!Do like the Dutch do!😊
Nice video! Done watching!
The more people bike,the more you can get the attention off representatives in the town hall to get more and saver bike roads!!
Way to go!
But how will I be able to use the drive-through services of my city when I get hungry??!?!1!??
You dont. If you're not obese, you can walk your two legs inside.
I'm not afraid of any of the things mentioned, I'm worried about showing up to work red-faced and covered in sweat.
I have to change my shirt when I get to work from cycling, and I wash my back a little as it gets sweaty from rucksack.
I wouldn't wanna be doing that if I was working in an office really.
Also, when it rains, or when it's freezing cold, being on a bike is horrible.
I just put up with it though.
@@colinjava8447 This is why work that has showers in it with closets is the best
E-bike?
Bike commuter to work here.. Ride safe to all.
as long as we choose musclepropelled bicycles,
not the electric type.
Why? Electric provides assistance on difficult bits whilst forcing you to do the work elsewhere.

How to protect yourself from the rain to get to work not all with water?
See a Poncho (of rain), there's some videos on RUclips. I buy mine last week, but I didn't have the opportunity to use it yet.
That's great 👍
@Preston Cade ok 👍 bro
Got a good bike for carting a 200+ lb Romanian guy 20 miles each way?
Ilove bike to work
🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️👍
I'm thinking really hard to get rid of my car
Denver Colorado
Wish I could
I have been making and posting biking videos too :) made my second one recently and getting better at it! Love them
🤟🚴♂️
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Those days before google maps..
Except my work is 19km away and only 30% of the way is bike paths
40 min ride. not a big deal.
I want to cycle to school and i have 4 second hand bikes but they're all shit in their own special way and it'll take an hour and i'm not a morning person. I wish i could, and i'm working on it.
I mean it is dangerous.
Do you know how many people die in cars every day?
I HATE cycling but it needs to be done.
Why the hate?
@@SirDella It’s an uncomfortable experience but the benefit outweighs the discomfort....

Only clicked for that classic beauty of a woman. Nothing else matters ;~]
Love this!
Good video, but several advantages and disadvantages to both car and bike, it's not as simple as it sounds.

Too many thugs on the streets tho
Plan a better route.
@@andrewsneacker1256 did what you told me and there's still too many thugs... and now loose dogs as well.
Bikes . . .no stereo, no beverage holders, no storage for my toys, no place for my dog, bring a chick, nope to all . .. bikes are transport for losers
