Shocker, a new study came out that says leaner nations bike, walk, use mass transit. Thus leaning to nations with less obesity. Is anyone shocked by this new finding? I sure am not. Seems to be pretty straight forward if you ask me. We have seen Americans get out of their cars and onto bikes and mass transit a little more after the gas price increase. The questions is now, did they do that long enough for it to become a habit for them or will the cold weather and lower gas prices drive them back into their cars? Time will tell.

About Ernest
Ernest is the owner of the Crofton Bike Doctor located in the Village of Waugh Chapel Shopping Center. Ernest has been in the industry since 1989 when he first started to work at the Bike Doctor of Arnold. During that time I developed a love for cycling and retail. I graduated from the University of Maryland and live and ride locally.
I enjoy riding off road and on the road as well as doing a little bike touring. As a teenager I did a trip in Maine and then over to Novia Scotia which helped cement my love for riding. Since then I have done tours in the Canyons of Utah as well as several trips along the C&O Canal. Today I have both mountain bikes and road bikes that I enjoy riding. One of the most exciting things now is my wife is beginning to develop a passion for riding and we have begun mountain bike together as well as some light road riding.
