You mentioned cycled to the post office, are you a cyclist or do you use that as your transportation?
I use mine for both exercise and some days a means for travel to work but am not a dedicated cyclist.

There's a few different reason. First of all, I think everyone can agree of their truly astonishing beautifulness! They have such bright colors, and what colors they are! White, blue, orange, red, black and green. And they even change their lightness of the color as well.
Secondly, they are what a true frog is in my eyes. They are slender (no offense to pacmans or White's, but I like em thin) creatures that move with utter grace and carefulness. And, they climb with their amazing feet high up in the canopy. They dont' even need a water source, since they get all their water from the air. They are truly super specialized for a life in the trees, where frogs do not belong originally. They can't even swim (at least not well)! And they even lay their eggs in on flippin' leaves on a tree!
It all adds to the perfect frog in my eyes. I love the specie intensely, even though I've never seen one in real life.
I've always liked cycling. Since I started go to school by my own, which was second grade, I've always used the bike. Everyday, every month, all year around. The number of times I've used to buss to get to job/school can be counted on one hand. Now, remember that I live in Umeå. This means winter. Real winter! Nothing beats cycling the 5 km to school, in -30 C and 4 dm of newly fallen snow. Aaaaaw yeeeeeeaah!
But I've never used it as exercise, I really don't like to exercise "just to be exercising". I need to be doing something, not just bike around and felling pumped. So, to go by bike is my way of transportation, since we don't have a car and I don't even have a drivers license. Probably should, but it's expensive... And I got some friggin tanks to setup!![]()
