If it’s been a while since you’ve dusted off your old bike and gone for a ride — or if you’ve never owned a bike — plan to put a new hybrid bike on your holiday wish list this year. Outdoor cycling is great exercise, friendly for the environment, and just plain fun to do alone or with others. Plus, a hybrid bike offers you the flexibility to ride on a variety of terrains, from dirt to pavement.
Looking Forward to a New Bike & a New You
If you drive to and from the office for work, consider a commuter hybrid bike to change up your routine and get in shape. You’ll be surprised at how quickly riding to work can boost your energy for the day — saving on gas money is an added bonus. Best of all, with a hybrid, you can easily go from street to trail and won’t need a separate bike for weekend adventures with the kids.
If work is a little bit farther than you feel your body can take you, you may want to consider a hybrid electric bicycle. With this option, you can switch from manpower to electric power for those times when you need a little assistance or your joints need a break. E-bikes can also give you a wider range since you’ll be able to go longer distances with less physical effort.
For something completely unique — but still fully street legal — electric tricycles top the list. Electric tricycles have all the advantages of electric bicycles but with added stability and less strain on the body. Without as much need to adjust for balance, these trikes are great for trips to the store or leisurely rides with the family.
Regardless of the option you choose, going into the new year with a new bike can help you get healthy and live out your resolutions. Hybrids are generally light and easy to store when not in use, and they give you a smooth, comfortable ride that encourages you to get outside and exercise more.
Wrap It Up With a Great Big Bow
Hybrid bikes make a perfect Christmas gift for yourself or for others because of their versatility. Even if you haven’t ridden a bicycle in a while, you’ll likely find a use for your new hybrid, whether it’s a casual ride along the beach, an errand downtown, or anything in between.
If you’re riding an outdated bicycle or have never had a bike as an adult, a new bike can open the door to a world of fun with gears that allow you to tackle hills with less effort, even if the ground beneath you is dirt. Newer braking technology and lighter materials have really revolutionized the cycling experience of your childhood.
Imagine how iconic it is to see a brand new bicycle under the tree on Christmas morning, and give that experience to yourself or someone you love.
