How does it affect global
warming ?
Former vice president Al Gore made a major contribution to educate Americans on
global warming. He released a two-time academy award winning documentary called
“An Inconvenient Truth,” which explains methods to prevent global warming. According
to the national geographic website, “Further contributing to the pollution potential of cars
is the fact that they are filled with numerous fluids, which can harm the environment in
the cases of leakage or improper disposal.” As you read, you begin to understand that
air pollution is no joking matter. By decreasing our usage of automobiles, and replacing
them with bikes; we will be making beneficial effects for the environment.
How does it Affect the economy
?
This reflects on how much it would cost you for
gas. By decreasing our use of cars, we’ll be
making a contribution to the American economy.
First of all, using fewer cars will decrease our
demand for oil therefore lowering gas prices.
This also allows the U.S. government to focus
on other domestic needs, for example, a better
health care program and other regulations
associated with improving the American way of
life.

Cycling is good for your
muscles: Riding a bike is
great for toning and building
your muscles, especially in
the lower half of the body –
your calves, your thighs,
and your rear end. It’s also
a great low-impact mode of
exercise for those with joint
conditions or injuries to the
legs or hips, which might
keep them from being
active……….Cycling is
good for your waistline: You
can burn a lot of calories
while biking, especially
when you cycle faster than
a leisurely pace, and cycling
has been associated with
helping to keep weight gain
down. And cycling has the
added benefit of ramping up
your metabolism, even after

Saving
oil
- If we save oil cars will not be able to release toxic chemicals and
heavy metals
- Save oil for planes

- Save oil on electricity
Interview
With a 72.4cm custom road bike and a lifetime spent in the saddle, the 6-foot-11 NBA Hall of Famer and longtime TV color man could be
cycling's biggest fan
You looked overjoyed after riding 77 miles and climbing 7,700 feet at the Mt.. Laguna Bicycle Classic in California last April.
It was my comeback ride after back surgery in 2009. Cycling's a huge part of my life; I was doing centuries before we called 'em centuries. I
did the Rosarito-Ensenada and Tecate-Ensenada rides in Baja for years, and the Death Valley Century every year from 2005 until the
operation. I didn't know if I could ride again. So this was big.
In 1985, you cowrote Bill Walton's Total Book of Bicycling. When did the love affair begin?
As soon as I could walk. As kids in San Diego,we'd buy bikes for $5 at police auctions,fix 'em up and ride all over town. At UCLA, my bike
got me to class fast. I joined group rides on the Westside and at the Encino Velodrome, even rode with [three-time Olympian and Cycling
Hall of Famer] John Howard, one of my heroes. At summer school at Sonoma State, I'd ride every day in Napa, Marin and Sonoma from 1
to 9 p.m. I love the freedom, the motion, the gliding, the adventure, the technology, the environmentalism. And it's my time to be with myself.
What do you mean?
My greatest inspirations and creativity come in the weight room, where I am regularly, or on my bike, where I wish I was all the time. In that
space of freedom and imagination, I have time to organize my dreams beyond the tight boundaries of my normal life. When I come back
from a ride, my wife, Lori, always has to remind me, "Bill, don't forget: I wasn't part of that six-hour conversation you just had with yourself."
During your NBA career, did you ride in-season?
I rode wherever I lived--Portland, Oregon; San Diego;in Cambridge with the Boston Celtics. With the Trail Blazers, weather permitting, I'd
ride to games; I lived a couple miles from the Coliseum. Funny story: When we won the NBA championship in 1977, I rode down to the
parade. The start was jammed like the parking lot at a Grateful Dead concert. I immediately got separated from my bike--it was just gone.
After the parade, I announced, "Will the guy who has my bike please bring it back so I can get home?"
And I got it back.
