Starting from mountain bikers they hope to clean air in the city (Jakarta) then born the cycle community to work. In August 27 2005 they declare bike to work community in Jakarta. They campaign bike to work related about global warming. Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans since the mid-twentieth century and its projected continuation.
Tips for Commuting by Bike
Plan ahead. One of the reasons people don’t commute by bike, even if they have a bike, is that they don’t want to be sweaty.
Drop your clothes to work ahead of time. You could pack them in a backpack, to wear on your back, but it gets your back sweaty. You could also put it in a pannier and carry it on a rack, which is a good option, but you might not want your clothes wrinkly for some reason.
Any old bike will do. If you’ve got an old mountain bike, which I do, that’s good enough. You don’t need to spend a lot of money on a bike and gear to get started. Later, you can always spend more, a little at a time, but whatever you’ve got is good enough for now.
Have a spare tube and tools, and know how to change a tire. A patch kit is good, but it’s even easier if you just have a spare tube, a pump, and the right tools so that you can quickly change the punctured tube for a new one, and patch the old one later at home.
Be safe. This is a no brainer, but it is good to read up on tips on cycling safety before heading out into dangerous traffic.
It’s a blast! Cycling is a lot of fun and riding to work is much, much better than driving.
Try it. You’ll love it.
