Why not a motorcycle, ete et 1 usually reply somewhat as follows Develops Heart and Lungs “Well, in the first place, I ride It because I like it, And I like it be caune it is such a clean, wholesome, out-of-doors sport, It takes a fellow out where he can fill his lungs with good, fresh air and rest his eyes with the sight of the green countryside. The exercinoe in itself in the finest in the world. Nothing can equal it an an allround developer, not of the alone—you use those of your chest and back as well as those of your arma and but of the vital organs also, the lungs and heart. They sure do get the de velopment. How those old bellows do open up and how that heart doe pump the good red blood thru your system. Believe me, the chap who rides a bicycle never needs to take anything to promote hin blood cireu lation or to give him an appetite, and he never needs any nerve tonic, either. Put the best thing of all is that remarkable sense of exhilaration you experience when you glide smoothly along. under your own steam, as it were, the wheel responsive to your slightest impulse, The best-trained and finest-blooded saddle horse in the world could never be half so sensitive to his rider’s wishes as the high grade bicycle, You ride steadily along till you come to a hill, perhaps, and then you just bear down on the pedals a little, and up you go, with no slackening of the pace And then that glorious sensation when you “shoot a hill” or coast down it-—why, you feel so big that Rockefeller and Carnegie look like pigmies to you; and that sense of power you feel when you ride along & good road on the level and see the road flow under your wheels like a ribbon. There's no use In talking, have lege nothing in the world can compare | with it And then the bicycle opens up such a fascinating field of adventure and exploration. There are so many places of interest that you have often wanted to visit but that are hard to reach by train or trolley You can reach them easily on a bi- cycle-and you are not ted down by any schedule but your own, The trips and tours that I have taken in the past, short ones and long ones, constitute one of the brightest spots in my memory and one that 1 would not exchange for a great deal Then there is the sporting end of it—the racing game, The man who has ridden a bicycle and ne den in a road race has mis his life, The start, with every his toes and eager to make a quick getaway, the exciternent when you sight the bunch ahead of you and try to go by them without any tack ing on; you gradually overhaul them by ones and twos and groups and then finish—you think you are all in, but you find some more “kick” somewhere. There is always some e whom you can beat, and so you are always no matter where you finish § times I am asked how it is The man who claims he didn't know better is gen erally the one who never took the trouble to find out.
