cycling

For instance, the bicycle is the most efficient machine ever created: Converting calories into gas, a bicycle gets the equivalent of three thousand miles per gallon. ~Bill Strickland, The Quotable Cyclist

Business of life is like bicycling

Keep pedaling or fall down

In less than half a litre of calories
You can ride around the town.

People now depend on fossil fuel
Trucks have replaced the mule
Old cycles are not worth repair
The lifts have replaced the stairs.


Learning a bicycle was a process
kids fell and tore their dresses
The wheels would joyfully wobble
cycling was worth all the trouble


It was fun riding over the bump
Inflating the tyres with a pump
Boys would ride out for a fling
Girls would wait to hear tring tring.


Life was simple and full of joy
Cycle was the most coveted toy
Relationship were without barrier
Girlfriend on the bar,
                              Wife on the carrier.- Vasant Khisty



Learning a bicycle use to be a big moment in olden days. A child would coax his father and parents would black mail a child to get a bicycle. Then a child would take six months to actually learn cycling. The father use to hold the cycle from behind and run with the child. And when the child learnt how to balance he would look at his parents with pride. Now days children are born with in built balance. They can ride a motor cycle from the word go.
