Where do you live and what’s it like riding in your city?
I live in Lexington, KY and it’s a great city to ride in. You can get pretty much all over with two wheels. The city is fairly flat and everything is close so it’s easy to get around quickly. We have a nice college campus too so the scenery is amazing certain times of the year.
What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
My favorite city to ride in so far has been London. It’s an awesome way to explore the city! There are so many bikes there—it’s amazing to see so many people embrace cycling. No matter when you are out on the bike it’s always a blast cruising around. I will say that they are a little strict about lights on your ride in the nicer areas—I got stopped by the fuzz for being lightless.
Why do you love riding in the city?
I grew up out in the country so when I started riding my bike in the city it was a whole new experience. Being on a bike allows you to experience the world around you much more personally than in a car. Cycling gives the ability to experience the sights, sounds and smells first hand.
