When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race. ~H.G. Wells

I really like this!
A bicycle is the best mode of transport...
If more people were using it, the world wouldn't have been so bad as it is today...depleted oil reserves, pollution, health aspects...
Good post, GZ :)

Devika is true "A bicycle is the best mode of transport."
I did not know that he said this,
a bike is a nice way to get around!
I love biking so this one is close to the heart. Excellent photo GZ.
wise words!
i adore the shadow shot!
definitely a green way of transport
Very subtle shot. I have a few bikes on display today.
very nice
i've always like this quote. unfortunately, it seems to drift farther from the truth these days.
anony- come back!
devika- I agree. I don't ride as much as I think I should, but I'm older and wiser, thus riding in the cold, dark rain isn't appealing to me anymore....
humano- ditto.
A&P- I didn't either. Yes it is!
janice- aweseome!
Kat- yep.
polona- thanks. yes, let's hope it catches on.
marc- thanks for noticing and commenting.
KMF- gracias
raindog- we can hope folks find the joy and benefit of riding a bike...
Nice shot!
Also, thanx for visiting Aastha-z-Photocorner
creative!
beautiful shot!
the quote holds so true!
I love to bike but don't do it so much as like you I am older (maybe not wiser) and sometimes the world seems all uphill.
Where in the PNW are you? (if I may ask)

Hi GZ,
Riding a bicycle doesn't imply riding in the cold and rain, my dear friend..
ofcourse there are days, when we take other modes of transport also -- then I prefer public transport or trains than private vehicles :)

devika
I love riding a bike to my University.
Great quote to go with this cool shot! Lovely!
Ok - that is a great quote!
wow...that is very true. By the way, you are mentioned on my blog as the winner of Lyrical Bullets
I love photos of shadows when they can stand alone. Terrific!
Confession: I can't ride a bike. I bought one a few years back and went about two feet. I had a terrible accident on a bike when I was 18 and I guess I can't get the vision out of my head when I sit on one.
I'll carpool when I can though! How's that?
Congrats on winning the poetry contest at LS!!

Aashta- thanks for stopping by!
Dungha- much obliged.
Romeika- glad you liked it.
Magiceye- indeed, it does.
Scs- yep, I can relate. Seattle Metro
Devika- well, around here many people do, I used to. But, I say each to their own. I hear ya!
Earvin- awesome!
JM- thank you.
Please sir- ☺
Lyrically- thank you very much, for hosting the poetry contest and for the precious gift of one of your paintings!
Lolo- lol, I’ll let you off the hook ☺ Thank you.
So true!!
Bike are good!!!
Impossible to explain scientifically how a bicycle can move forwards without falling, and yet it does. So it is the proof it is not necessary to understand the whole universe.
Great photo and quote!
I can't wait for the weather to be better and the days longer so I can ride to and from work again. I miss it so much.
Thanks for your comment. Have a great day!
Yes Yes Yes!!!
Absolutly! I agree! such a fantastic fact! Come on everybody!!
:-)
Vivan las bicis!
Obviously, H.G. never had his favorite local park taken over by bullet-head-helmeted leotard wearin' yuppies, who are so politically active they got almost every other way to enjoy the park "ordinanced" against.
An ordinary, plain-clothed citizen using a bike for transport; my spirit could rise from seeing that. The afore-mentioned kind bring visions of war...
I haven't been around in a while so I just settled on this one to comment on after reading the whole page, all very good posts, as usual. I wish I had time to comment on them all.
Great shadow shot here, by the way.
