If you visit London nowadays , you'll see a lot of buses and cars on the road , you'll also see a lot of bikes because nowadaysmore and more people travel by bike.
There are a lot of reasons for this. First, it's very cheap to use a bike, and it's quick too. You often wait for a bus for half an hour. When the bus comes, there are so many other buses and cars on the roads that the bus moves very slowly. The underground train is quick but very expensive and often crowded.
I travelled to work by bus for about four years. I often arrived at work late, and tired. Then one day, about two years ago, a colleague (同事)said , “I go to work by bike , why don't we travel together?”
“Because my bike's old,”I answered, “and there are so many buses and cars on the road. I'll feel frightened …”“You needn't feel frightened! ”said my friend, “If you follow me and we ride slowly, you'll be fine. ”
Although we went slowly, we arrived at work quickly. The bus ride took forty minutes and the bike ride took half an hour!
The next day I bought myself a new bike. Now I don't feelafraid. I love cycling to work. I take a different road every day. I arrive at work very quickly. I've got a little more money now, and very important, I feel fit and well.
Many people think in the same way as I do. That's why you see a lot of bikes on the road. Who knows, perhaps in the future we'll have roads for bicycles only. I hope so!
