So let's say you have no car... And you need to go to somewhere, you need to choose to go by Bus, by bike or by foot.. What did you do? Considering the place isn't so away from where you are.
Well, i'd go by bicicle or walking, i don't like getting an bus/ waiting for it.. You?

I like to walk quite a lot and do so to places in my local area. Sometimes I catch a bus or train out somewhere else before I do sum walking. I like walking along beautiful beaches, all cliff tops with stunning views and in the green countryside.
I have a bike and now I have a baby I don't tend to go on it very much. But before he was born I used to cycle a lot. My bike has 21 gears and so it can get up even very steep hills quite easily.
My local bus service is slow and quite expensive. It goes on very roundabout type routes going past as many houses as possible. I find the train is quicker, cheaper and more comfortable. Yes, it can be boring waiting for buses and trains.

I don't have a car and it depends on how far I'm going whether I take the bus or walk. More times than not I will walk when the weather is good. The walking is great exercise and a good way to enjoy the fresh air. The bus is good when it's raining or too hot to be in the sun.

At first I will walk until I reach the bus stop. I will wait for five minutes, if there is a bus I will get into it. This is faster than when I have to walk. But if in five minutes the bus didn't arrive, I will walk to the place I want to go. I don't prefer using a bicycle, because it will make me sweat more than when I walk. I will cycle only when i want to exercise.

I'd rather prefer to go on foot.Nowadays,there are too many traffic jams.Travelling by bus is so boring...You should wait to every stop.It's a waste of time.Riding a bike is effective way to arrive somewhere.It's fast and reliable way for travelling.

Usually if i go to work, i go with my bike. Also if i must do grocery without my son. But if my son (13 months) come, we just walk.
If we go to the city. We take bus, because we don't have car
