			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Biking is a great means to improve your health, save money,  while aiding in keeping the air unpolluted at the same time.  Bicycling also doesn&#8217;t impact your muscles  that running and using gym equipment can.  It&#8217;s also pragmatic because one can keep fit by biking to the shops, or to the workplace, so you don&#8217;t have to to put time aside for exercise as nearly all other sorts of workout enforce on you.</p>
<p>But what type of bike to buy? A bike that is comfy for you as you&#8217;re riding, and has a good number of gears to enable you to take on inclines with comparative comfort &#8211; after all, not everyone lives in Cambridge! You should  be able to pick up your bike with relative comfort as you will find yourself needing to do so sometimes, for example up a few stairs.</p>
<p>Further more, make sure you purchase decent add-ons for your cycle : a pump, front and back light, robust <a href="http://www.cyclerepairman.co.uk/Bike-Cables/C46-1-0.htm">bike brake cables</a>, reflector lights, reflective jacket, helmet and strong lock. Such bicycle accessories help you stay safe in bad light, and your cycle out of reach from thieves. Ensure you lockup your bicycle in a reasonably communal area.</p>
<p>Lastly, it&#8217;s a good move to invest some time into learning cycle repairs. There&#8217;s no requirement to be an expert, but it&#8217;s useful if you can find out how to align your brake cables and brake pads as these oftentimes require calibrating following use.  And make sure you keep the bike well oiled and the tyres pumped hard to make it that much easier to actually ride.. And it almost goes without saying, be sensible on the roads &#8211; use your arms to indicate when turning, and stay to the left at all times. </p>
