Welcome to Bicycling Life
Our purpose is to promote everyday bicycling by showing it is safe, practical, economical, healthy — and fun!
We created this site to counter misinformation and unfounded worries about using a bicycle for daily transportation. Racing and high-tech gear are fine, but our focus is on helping ordinary people ride legally and confidently on public roads.

- Promote the health benefits of regular riding and explain how much cycling helps.
- Highlight the pure enjoyment of cycling.
- Demonstrate the financial advantages of bicycling for individuals and communities.
- Show how cycling benefits even those who never ride.
- Report news related to these issues.
- Collect and share statistics and research.
- Publish articles analyzing transportation and safety topics.
- Advise on riding a bicycle safely.
- Provide advocacy information and advice.
- Publish feature stories demonstrating the safety and pleasure of cycling.
