Closing thoughts from Bicycle Diaries by David Byrne:
It's (biking) the liberating feeling-the physical and psychological sensation-that is more persuasive than any practical argument. Seeing things from a point of view that is close enough to pedestrians, vendors, storefronts combined with getting around in a way that doesn't feel completely divorced from the life that occurs on the streets is pure pleasure.
Observing and engaging in a city's life-even for a reticent and often shy person like me-is one of life's greatest joys. Being a social creature-it is part of what it means to be human.
