Rain and sun never hammer you before.
Or I've got an important appointment by 8.00am and it's been raining since 5am,with no sign of fizzing out anytime soon. Is my bike still preferable in this scenario?

kenonze:
Imagine everyone biking at same time? Thats madness

@Diportivo.
It simply mean that you will rather be suffering and smiling in traffic everyday.
It amazing how people fear what they don't know, and they spread the same unfounded fear.

@ the sun and rain hammar comment. if you do not know, Their are Rainsuits that you can wear to ride in the rain. And when you are under the sun, their are mesh riding jackets that you can use that ensures you are cool while you ride.

Always make sure you do your research and know what you are talking about before you make a comment.

If you are kitted up with a Helmet , Jacket, riding shoes, gloves, and all you need to ride, you can create a company while others are still stuck on traffic.
Try thinking outside the box

In Lagos Nigeria, It's amazing why people still go through all the trouble of driving for 6 hours when they can just spend 30 minutes riding a bike.

Why suffer driving when you can ride?

Can you tell why you will spend 8,000 Naira to fuel your car weekly when all you need is spend 1,200 for a super-bike for the same week?

Why not Ride a bike and save a potential over N288,000 annually. This is what i saves when I Ride! So why would I drive a car in Lagos during rush hour

Why wake up at 3:30am when you can wake up at 6:30am, ride to work for 30 minutes and still get to work on time?

Riding saves you a minimum of 5hours/day, 25hours/week, 4days/month and 48days/year?

I wonder why you would drive instead of Ride and save time , money and have a better quality of life?

More people need to Ride more!!!!

what do you think or say?


Are you serious ? that's not a question ,, a country that no one keeps the law ,,, people should think of safety first,, how many bikes get hit by car, bus or what so ever every week ? It dangerous that's why people don't use it,, If only our country was well developed like Holland were bike riding is a common means of transportation

@Diportivo
No offence meant!

I am just trying to see what would be the reason that could prompt people to Ride a Bike as a solution to getting stuck in traffic?

Will it be an option for people if it can be made more safe?

Would you ride if it saved you 5hours daily? would you ride if it save you N6,000 weekly? would you ride if it was safe like on the streets of Spain, London, Italy, Germany and France?

Would you ride if it allowed you quality time to do what you want at anytime? and all you needed to ride safe was available??

This is just what I am getting at for Lagos Nigeria.

Can I get you perpectives to riding again now.

What do you all think?
Does this make sense for Lagos if it save you 6hours daily, 240k anually, and help you make more out of your day if you have all the safety riding gears?

I look forward to your comment,

Cheers

I admire bikes but for safety reasons, I cannot ride on lagos roads. I've seen power bike accidents before and it was really scary. A colleague bought one but is still scared of using it to work. It's just a weekend bike to the beach

@Airlord2020, I have been riding for over 10 years in Lagos, and believe me nothing is much more pleasurable than riding considering the bad traffic conditions in Lagos that you get stuck in with a car. It does not have to be risky if you learn to do it right and make sure you wear the necessary gear for safety.
Their are school in Lagos where you can learn how to ride properly and safely, and the best part is that they provide you the bike to learn with. and their are also places where you can get the right safety kits as well. see information for both below.
Believe me, it is not as dangerous and scary as people term it to be if you do it right. Se some info for you below
