Cycling
Cycling is not only good for the environment and your health, but can also save you money. Cycling will get you to your destination quickly and conveniently.
Check that your bicycle has good brakes, a bell that works and lighting approved for cycling in the dark.
Checking your bicycle over once a year can help to avoid any nasty surprises, such as a faulty brake.
Riding a bicycle is much more enjoyable if you cycle responsibly and comply with traffic regulations. This improves the interaction between different road users.
