biking. its fun and has health (both mental and physical) benefits. it was tough first few times but now I cant wait any longer than 2 days to jump on my bike for an hour long ride.

I’d love to do this but on roads I find cars very anxiety producing and on trails I find getting around walkers very anxiety producing :-(

I read somewhere that its not recommended to bike on roads busy with cars because the pores in lungs open up while biking and all that polution goes straight in. I noticed some people are biking on dirt trails parallel to the paved trail because the paved one is too crowded with people, their children and childrens strollers and all that.
