'Commuting by bike will reduce people’s transport costs during this cost-of-living crisis, with additional health and environmental benefits' | MarthaWardrop ✍️

Research by the University of Glasgow has highlighted that cycling to work is associated with a 45% lower risk of developing cancer and a 46% lower risk of heart disease, compared to a non-active commute.

Cycling is, of course, a completely carbon neutral mode of transport and reduces the demand to build, service and dispose of cars or other fossil fuel-dependent vehicles. It is possible for a 10km each way commute by bike to save 1500kg of greenhouse gas emissions each year.
