be exciting, and it is an inexpensive way of keeping fit if you live there. Some cyclists don't mind spending a lot of
money on expensive bikes. However, if you just want a basic bike that is only for occasional use, there are many
cheap choices. Several markets have cheap bikes on sale which may not be impressive to look at but should be
satisfactory. You should buy a cycling helmet if you want to cycle in London. Wearing a cycling helmet is not
compulsory in Britain, but it is a good idea to wear one for protection.
