Cycling
Cycling is the most efficient mode of transport known to humankind. In fact, it's three times more efficient than walking. Using pedal-power to commute is a fantastic form of incidental exercise. You can get fit without really trying!
Benefits of cycling

- Has virtually no impact on other travellers and the environment.
- Improves health, fitness and well-being.
- Reduces noise and air pollution related to traffic congestion.
