The benefits of taking an adult electric bike instead of a car are endless. And the list really could go on forever. I can guarantee that with just one look at all the different benefits of biking, you’ll be persuaded to make the switch.
From benefiting the environment and your physical health to improving your mental health and just getting outside with your kids, here are some of my favorite reasons for choosing a bike over hopping in the car.
You Notice Things You’ve Never Seen Before
One of the first reasons why I love riding my electric bike is that when I use my ebike, I notice things that I wouldn’t have noticed otherwise if I were driving in the car. Whether it’s a bird, some flowers, or even different shops, having my bike allows me to slow everything down and pay attention to my surroundings.
My eBike Helps Me Engage With the Kids
The second reason I like choosing my electric bike over the car is because it helps me engage with the kids. When we tell the kids, “We’re getting in the car,” they just say, “Okay.” But when we tell them we’re going for a bike ride, they get really excited.
eBiking allows me to participate with the kids biking. So, as a parent, I’ve recognized that the more I engage my children and involve them in activities, the better their moods. Increasing our time outdoors has brought our family closer together. So, my kids truly love getting outside on their bikes.
Benefits of eBiking: Feeling Good About Myself
My third and final reason for getting out on a ebike versus the car is because ebiking makes me feel good about myself. There’s something truly empowering about choosing to do the inconvenient thing.
So, although taking your ebike can often be inconvenient, it is easier to get a parking spot. And it does help maintain your physical health. Instead of thinking how much easier and quicker it would be to drive, just think about the future and realize that biking will ultimately benefit your health and mental well-being.
