I Love Riding in the City

Where do you live and what’s it like riding in your city?
I live in London, UK. Riding in London can be manic—taxi drivers, zillions of pedestrians crossing the streets without looking and crazy double-decker bus drivers. At the same time though, riding in London can be magical especially when riding along the river at night and along the historical buildings, yes even in the rain!
Why do you love riding in the city?
When I ride I know that I’ll reach my destination on time (unlike when I’m on public transport). But the main reason why I love riding in the city is that amazing feeling of freedom and discovering the city’s hidden gems. I also love to overtake the lycra men and racing strangers on the way to work, and feeling the morning’s crisp air on my face.
