Rather two wheels joined by a frame,one behind the other. Powered by a person who pedals , is the bicycle. The picture is one of the many sheds for keeping the cycles at an educational institute. It is a huge campus, and cars are allowed only for the staff and in certain areas. For the rest, you got to pedal your way around. So everywhere you go there are cycles and cycles. There are some community cycles also which a visitor can use and then keep at designated spots after they finish using it. Less of traffic congestion and of course helps in controlling air pollution. A bicycle quote: "Life is like a bicycle .To keep your balance you have to keep moving"..Albert Einstein

@responsiveme Yes but it requires balance, it would be dangerous for my hubs. We live in the hills. The doctor has suggested a recumbent bike which I think we are going to consider since I could use it as well.

We need to have these all over the place, no more cars on the roads, just bicycles.. imagine how the trees would look, so green and clean.. the air will be so pure and people will be strong and in shape.

I love pedaling, but it seems that there are more and more cars in my town. And I can't use the bycicle, almost never, because my son is too small and I have to watch him closely. That's why we go for long walks instead .

I am not very good at riding a bicycle. Maybe I'd have to be walking most places.
