Surprisingly bike positive!

Rather surprisingly, I have taken up cycling in the city after many years of swearing NEVER to do it. My experience has been very positive. The traffic was not nearly as bad as I had imagined, as long as I stuck to the cycling routes. The other cyclists were friendly and offered to help me when I lost my way to the Cambie bridge one day! I also found that on the days I cycled to work I felt more productive and focused. It was a lovely way to begin my day. I am now saving for a bicycle of my own. This is a huge accomplishment as I have been very sceptical of cycling in the past.

The best part was all the attention I got riding "the Cadillac" around town!

I passed my bicycle off to a co-worker a while ago. He has reported back to me that he and his wife have both decided to purchase bicycles after riding the Vancity bike.

Kudos and many thanks to Vancity for providing an opportunity to expand our thinking on cycling. I'm a born again cyclist!! Thanks!
