Reduce your Impact with Biking

Map of CLC Grayslake Bicycle ConnectionsVehicles account for nearly 30 percent of the world’s total emissions and every mile of biking reduces that harmful impact. You don’t have to bike far or fast, even short excursions have heart-health benefits. Compared to driving, the low cost of biking can’t be beat and, if you’re running errands, it’s a great way to multi-task.

要使用这个站,把自行车挂起来,让踏板和车轮自由旋转。您可以使用附带的工具进行基本的维修和保养,如更换轮胎或调整刹车和脱轨。中青会很乐意提供这个单车维修站,让骑单车的爱好者继续上路。

自行车共享项目对通勤者和游客来说是一种有效的、按需的服务,也是在城市中短途骑行的乐趣。在许多短途旅行中,使用共享单车的单程旅行可以使乘坐公共交通更加方便。CLC自行车道连接到格雷斯莱克的其他地方,罗林斯热带草原森林保护区,华盛顿街地铁车站,以及整个湖区的名胜。
