What is something like a hobby or skill that you belive almost anybody should give a try, and what makes your suggestion so good compared to other things?

i feel like this is a descent question i guess.

    Biking.

    Moving under your own power has so many benefits:

    • It’s fun
    • It’s cheap (or can be, to be fair)
    • It’s good for your health
    • It’s good for the planet

      I started cycling to commute about a year ago and it’s been such a wonderful thing for my mental and physical health, not to mention my bank account. Beware that you may get sucked down the Not Just Bikes rabbit hole if you’re not careful and end up becoming a walkable/bikable cities advocate as I have.

        I cringe watching someone struggling to turn the pedals when they are riding a multi geared bike.

        Cycling is good for the knees, if you’re not staining to turn the pedals. That’s why gearing exists.

        Use the gears to make the pedaling easier.
