Riding a bicycle is very useful. But people don't always take a bicycle for the following reasons. One of the reasons is the absence of bicycle lanes. Let's look an adcantages and disadvantages of riding a bicycle and building bike lanes. The most important advantage is more simplier and safer riding for bikers around the city. The disadvantage is that there isn't enough place for bike lanes in the city. So, it will be necessary to allocate part of road or pavement. As a result, there will be no place for pedestrians and road capacity will be reduced. Besides, many pedestrians ignore road signs and go along the bike lanes. This impedes bike traffic and increases the probability of accidents. In addition, a lot of money is required for building of bike lanes since it is necessary to put asphalt, draw markings and place road signs. I believe that in future the bike lanes will be an integral part of roads and a bicycle will become an important part of our life.
Yesterday my Mum, Dad and I went to Covent Garden. While my parents were shopping, I was watching street actors' Performance. The performance was great! The pantomime actors and the jugglers were entertaining the people around for two hours. While one man in a bright cap was playing the violin,the juggler was juggling six big balls and the pantomime actor was standing like a statue. The people were laughing while the clowns were doing silly things. When my parents arrived, one of the actors was showing tricks. We left the performance while the people around were singing together with the street actors.
