Month: February 2022

Hello, today I will be talking about places that are very good for biking. One place that I have seen many people talk about on the Internet is San Francisco, California. (New York Times) I myself have never gotten to bike in San Francisco, but I have been biking in San Diego, which I would highly recommend. One of the reasons why San Francisco is such a great place for biking is that there are many beautiful views you can see when you are biking in that area. (The Culture Trip) In San Francisco, biking has grown by about 184% since the year 2006. (SFMTA) This statistic shows just how many people participate in this activity in San Francisco. Another city that is great for biking is Denver, Colorado. (My Move) Not only is Denver, Colorado a great place for biking, but it is also a great city for walking in. (Denver) One reason as to why the city is such a great place for biking is because of the multiple bike parks it has in it. (Denver) I have never been to Colorado before, but after learning this new information about how great Denver is for biking, I would love to visit it someday. Another city that is great for biking is Seattle, Washington. (New York Times) One of the many reasons as to why Seattle, Washington is such a good place for biking is that the bike lanes are amazing to ride in. (Bicycling) The city has taken a lot of steps to make this bike lines even safer than they normally would be, such as using lean rails for bikers who need to stop. These are only cities in the U.S. that are excellent for bikers, however there are even more cities that people would also recommend for bikers.

Hello, and welcome to Biking Life! This is the first post of this new blog I will be working on for the upcoming months. I am very excited to get started on putting this together. My name is Dan, and I am a student at University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. I first started biking when I was younger, and over the years, I realized how much I enjoyed spending my time biking. I like a lot of things about biking, whether simply biking itself, or learning more about how bikes have changed over the years. I really enjoy biking, and hope to share my enthusiasm with others through Biking Life. On Biking Life, I will be talking about gear, places to bike, past experiences, and much more! I think that this blog will be a great way of sharing information with others who are also interested in the subject of biking. Even if you are not that interested in biking, I think Biking Life will also be interesting to more casual fans, also. For these next upcoming weeks, some of the topics that will be discussed are popular places for biking, gear that I want to talk about, and popular bike models. I will have a bunch of new topics for the next couple of months also. Eventually, I will be talking about stuff like the mental and physical benefits of biking, and popular biking races. Throughout these months, I hope I can inspire people to bike more and learn more about bikes.
