Bicycles are the most efficient means of transportation period. They very good for your health. Cycling paths are very inexpensive and last for a long time. Cycling is a very safe means of transportation (except for cars). You can park a lot of bicycles in the same space that a car takes up. You don't have to be 16-18 to ride a bike so it's great for kids to get to places their parents would otherwise have to drive them.

Well, in traffic, bikes can steer between cars, but cars have to wait.

Bikes are generally safer, because you can ride on the sidewalk or the streets, your choice. You don't see anyone drunk-biking.

Parking spaces are difficult to locate in places such as the city. Bikes, you can lock them up easily.

You don't have to worry about insurance for bikes.
