First, many people interested in cycling because someone invite them to go together. I think it is fun to bike around the town with friends. The atmosphere will be different than bike around the town by themselves. It is also easier to rent a bike because we can find many bicycle rentals around UKSW.Second, some people really need to do exercise. So, they choose bike as the way to do exercise. They said it was easy and cheap to exercise by cycling. It oly cost Rp. 5000,00 to rent a bike for two hours. Although jogging is cheaper than cycling, It is sure that cycling is more fun because you can go around faster and enjoy the view of the city during your exercise.
Third, this the reason that many peoples usually answer to me but I doubt it. The reason is many people really do cycling because they want to stop global warming and save the earth. I think it was a bullshit because after they cycled they changed their transportation by car or motorcycle. It make me not to believe them except for some people that I really know they bike to work and another daily activities.
From my observation, I think cycling is a good trend. If it will become the new habit for Salatiga's people, I think we can really help the earth by reducing the carbon monoxide.
