RIDING BIKES + iKOR LABS
A Match Made in Heaven
Racing may be canceled for the time being, but bikes ARE NOT. As we move into summer and the itch to keep moving grows along with the temps, recommitting to your bike is a great way to make this a summer to remember. It has been proven that regular activity helps relieve stress and reduce anxiety, now more than ever it’s vital to keep your activity going. Sometimes it is important to be reminded of the details for why we love riding bikes.
Why Cycling
- Cycling allows us to be outside soaking up Vitamin D
- Cycling brings us joy, and joy decreases stress
- Cycling can produce dopamine, serotonin, and cannabinoids
