A bike is always a good investment to make and can be used for a variety of different purposes. A fantastic way to fulfill your athletic hours is to bike to school! Not only do you save the environment, money and time stuck in traffic, but you get a daily dosage of exercise as well! Plenty of people bike to work and school in British Columbia. In fact, bike lanes are expanding throughout cities.

Where can you buy a bike? You can go to stores that specialize in bikes or chain stores such as Canadian Tire. Another affordable way to buy a bike is to go second-hand! You can look at sites such as www.craigslist.com to find some great deals!

So, what else can you do with my bike? Well, if you bought a mountain bike or any other type of durable bike, you can check out these scenic routes that you can bike on during your spare time: http://www.bcadventure.com/adventure/mbike/index.html. Need an exercise regimen if you don’t want to bike to school, but want to bike to fulfill your requirements? Take a look at this British Columbian biker’s link: http://www.vimeo.com/2476014.

Happy biking!
