United States – May 30th, 2016 – May is National Bike Month across the U.S. with millions of people celebrating biking. There has been a huge surge in the popularity of biking, from riding to school, commuting to work or in your leisure time. From 2000 to 2013 commuting by bicycle has increased by 105% in bicycle friendly communities (compared to a national increase of 62%) according to the National Household Travel Survey. Key cities have seen a surge in commuting by bicycle, from 1990 – 2013 Washington D.C saw an increase of 498%, Portland an increase of 408% and San Francisco 301%.
There are a myriad of reasons to cycle from saving money, quicker commute time, improving your health to exploring your local parks and saving the environment. It allows you to include a daily workout and stress reducer into your schedule whilst at the same time decrease your own contribution to global warming. This is why All Star Active are encouraging everyone to get on their bikes and ride.
“There are so many personal and environmental benefits to cycling, so I am not surprised there has been such a surge in the numbers commuting to work by bike,” comments Victoria Stewart, the Founder of All Star Active. “We are proud to be supporting people to cycle safely and to benefit from everything it offers.”
