As you may have noticed from previous posts, I'm all about maximizing time and money especially when it comes to maintaining optimum health and fitness.  So, here's another great time and money saving fitness tip.  Ride a Bike to Work.

Bike riding is a great healthy, environmentally friendly way to get around especially in NYC.  There is a certain freedom that comes along with coming and going on your own time. and relying on yourself to get where you want to go  You move through a different pulse of the city when you ride a bike, You feel the fresh open air, rapidly taking in vast areas of the city instead of breathing the stale or crowded subway air,   Not relying on public transit, and feeling the open air while partially removing yourself from the rat race and having the nimbleness to behave somewhere between that of a car and a pedestrian  also gives you a satisfying sense of freedom. 

Exercise - biking outdoors is a good form of cardiovascular exercise.  It  provides greater resistance through wind and pavement grade and improves proprioception  providing you with a more effective workout than indoor cardiovascular machines

Saves money - gas, mileage, cab / subway fare

Saves Time -  combining activities like exercise and commuting saves time.  You get your cardiovascular workout done and don't have to spend time indoors on a machine.  In addition, depending on travel points like biking cross town in NYC after work during rush hour could very likely save you a lot of time,

Environmentally friendly.  No Gas, No fumes,  Runs on human power., expending calories.

*One Caveat.  As Always... Be Safe and Be Aware. There's a lot of nutty people acting crazy out there especially during rush hour.
