Drivers Cast Angry Glances—The Cyclist Is Riding!

The people of Latvia seem to be divided into two groups—those who cannot stand having a cyclist on the road and those who ride these bicycles. We often forget that there are many courteous cyclists who follow the traffic rules and do not inconvenience anyone. These cycling enthusiasts are the ones who enhance the reputation of cycling as a hobby, yet they go unnoticed. This is the kind of cycling culture that every bicycle owner should cultivate!

A bicycle is more than a means of transport—it is a way of life.

Of course, there are also those who never take their bicycles anywhere near road traffic. For these riders, a bicycle truly is a way of life. As soon as the last frosts are over, many already have a plan for how many forest and mountain trails they must conquer this summer. The fact that a bicycle can help them save a huge amount of money on transport does not even cross their minds. The main thing is the thrill!

Ride safely and enjoy the summer!

Whatever type of cyclist you may be, safe cycling can only benefit every rider. A fuller wallet, the wind in your hair, and well-exercised muscles are just some of the advantages a bicycle offers. Many riders will surely soon have their first cycling marathon medals gleaming on their shelves. But the real medal that a bicycle gives everyone is a single one—for a wonderful time and a fantastic sense of well-being!
