Sharing the experience and pleasures of cycling puts a face on those cyclists, draws interest and curiosity, and demonstrates the numerous physical, mental and social benefits of cycling. Most people will remember the joy of riding a bike as a child but cannot find the time and way back to the wonderful freedom of a bicycle- Remind them why it was so much fun. Cycle Advocates act as ambassadors by making conscious efforts to talk about why they cycle and the great experiences they have had on a bike. Sharing your cycling stories of places traveled, good days and the challenges met, humanizes cyclists and opens the conversation to questions that may stir another pedal and wheel. If you feel that you are being redundant, find another cyclist and spend time learning their experiences, joys, and challenges. We are building communities.
