Infographic: How Bikes Can Save Us
December 14th, 2011
We love all of the bicycle-inspired infographics popping up these days. This one makes it pretty clear: you’re going to save a lot of money and maybe your life by riding your bike to work. A few choice bits we pulled out…
- 20 bikes can be parked in the same space as 1 car
- Bikes are 50% faster than cars during rush hour
- Adding 30 minutes of daily cycling saves us $544 in medical costs annually
- The average person loses 13 pounds in their first year of riding
Definitely makes us feel good about hopping on our bikes everyday.

Every Wednesday on Ditch Your Car we’ll be bringing you just another reason to spend more time on two wheels. Be it a photo, a statistic or an inspirational video, we want to keep reminding you about why riding is great!
