Two years ago, my husband bought me a bicycle. If you live in a town, it is often faster than a car and you don't have to worry about parking(停车). You can leave it anywhere. As it has a seat at the back and a basket at the front, I can take my small daughter to school, to the library, to the shops, to anywhere.
I use it most in summer when the weather is warm and dry. It can be very unpleasant in winter when it is cold and the rain is heavy.
You must of course be careful on a bicycle. Accidents are not the only problem though (尽管). One day I went shopping and came back to find my front wheel (轮) missing. It was a long walk to the bicycle shop. Now I have three strong locks.
My husband uses my bicycle sometimes for short journeys(旅行). He says it is better than waiting for a bus. He still uses his car for longer journeys, but I think that all this sitting down is making him fat and lazy. On my bicycle I get a lot of exercises and fresh air, and this makes me feel a lot younger.
