Analytical Exposition

     Hello readers! In this post, I want to tell you my opinions about going to school by riding a bicycle. I will explain the advantages and disadvantages about going to school by a bicycle in my point of view.

     Due to the new government policy that said we should go to school by riding a bicycle. This policy is being socialized in 2013. Everything has its own good and bad, positives and negatives, advantages and disadvantages. So right now I will explain it all.

     The first is the advantages of going to school by riding a bicycle.

1. Make our environment cleaner

    Bicycle is the only vehicle which is caused no pollution. Bicycle doesn't need a fuel which produce CO and making the air pollution. Therefore, riding a bicycle to school can reduce the air pollution and make our environment cleaner.

2. You will be healthier

    Riding a bicycle is one kind of a sport. It's good for your health and sure, it will make your body healthier.

3. Minimize the traffic jam

    Do you see how is the condition of the road in the morning? When everybody is going out from their house going to anywhere and making the traffic jam every single day? When the parents use their car or motorcycle to deliver their children to school? If the students go to school by riding a bicycle, we can minimize the traffic jam. Have you ever wondered if all of the students are going to school by a bicycle? The traffic jam in the morning will be minimized.

      The second is the disadvantages of going to school by riding a bicycle.

1. It can make you tired

     Riding a bicycle to school can be tiring. Bicycle has no automatic machine, we should pedal the bicycle if we want it works. It will be okay if the distance between your school and your home is not too far away, you will not be really tired. But how if your house is so far away from your school? Doesn't it feel very tired to riding a bicycle to school? If you feel tired, then you might be feel sleepy during the day of school and you can't study well.

2. It's a little bit risky and unsafe

    Riding a bicycle to school is not safe. Remembering that there is no special line or space for a bicycle in the road while in fact, the road in Indonesia especially Bandung is very crowded, especially in the morning. The chance that the bicycle will be hit buy the other vehicles like motorcycle, car, or even bus is higher than if we use the other vehicle. 

3. It's easy to be stolen

    Bicycle is so easy to be stolen, especially if there are no extra safety such as padlock or something. Remembering that the level of criminality in our city and country is a little bit high.

4. It's depend on the weather

     What if the weather is bad? What if it's rainy all day long? You can't go to school, right? I know that you can use the rainy coat to school, but it's very complicated to riding a bicycle with a rainy coat. So riding a bicycle depends on the weather.

5. Bicycle is expensive

    Nowadays, the price of the bicycle and the motorcycle is quietly the same. In my opinion, motorcycle is more efficient than the bicycle. The motorcycle is safer, it's not too complicated if we use the rainy coat while riding the motorcycle, and riding a motorcycle will not drain a lot of energies. I know that the motorcycle is producing CO and making the air pollution. But I think motorcycle is better.

     From all above, we can see that in my point of view, riding bicycle to school has more disadvantages than the advantages. So, I rather go to school by a motorcycle or the other vehicle. I think public transportation is good. Because, I live so far away from my school. I can't imagine if I go to school by a bicycle, I will be really really really tired. Then again, to be honest, I can't ride a bicycle.... So, nope. I will not go to school by riding a bicycle. But that's just my opinion. How about yours?
