Travel by bike

If you go to visit London, you’ll see a lot of buses and cars on the road. You’ll also see a lot of bikes because more and more people travel by bike. There are a lot of reasons for this. First, it is very 　　11　 　You often have to wait for a buses and cars on the roads that the bus move very 　　12　 .

I traveled to work by bus for about four years. I often arrived at work late 　　13　 　tired. Then one day, about two years ago, a friend of mine said, “I go to work by bike. Why don’t we travel together?”

“Because my bike is old.” I answer, “And there are so many buses and cars on the roads. I’ll feel frightened.”

The next day, I bought myself a new bike. Although we went slowly, we arrived at work 　　15　 . It 　　16　 　40 minutes to go to work by bus, but only half an hour by bike! Now I don’t feel afraid. I love going to work by bike. I take a different road every day. I arrived at work early. I’ve got 　　17　 　money now, and more important, I feel healthy.

Many people think in the same way 　　18　 　I do. That’s 　　19　 　you see a lot of bikes on the roads. Next year you’ll see more, I am sure. Perhaps in the future we will have roads 　　20　 　only. I hope so.
