Cycle ki savaari

As the Petrol prices in India have sky rocketed with a huge hike inflation is going to increase further more and the common man faces increase in prices of daily use items - milk, vegetables, pulses, sugar, rice, wheat etc. In current times and age kids still use cycles for fun and transport. The usage by adults has been restricted to people with very less income who can not afford the motor cycles or scooters. By embracing the environmentally friendly means of transport we can "Go Green", reduce the Petrol consumption also improve our physical fitness.

Cycle is a miracle invention by MacMillan. It converts the riders potential energy into motion. Thinking about health benefits, cycling for 10 minutes burns enough calorie to keep a person fit and it is a good daily exercise.
We cannot accomplish anything by coming on the roads and protesting. We Indians are good at Jugaad. Why not use this means of transport as a major mode of transportation and increase Public transport systems which will also help us in foregoing use of petrol guzzling personal transportation. It should be considered as a complete transportation system where we use public transport for long distances and use cycles to cover the last mile.
