The Bicycling Empowerment Network - Ben South Africa
|
Riding a bicycle is four times faster than walking and three times more efficient. Bikes keep children in school and help people get to work more easily. South African health care workers on BEN-bikes now see 500 to 550 patients a month compared with the 100 - 200 patients they were able to serve on foot.

Arthritis
"Bicycle riding is often very therapeutic for arthritis.
Most of the weight during bicycle riding is put on the
seat so the knees and hips get moving pretty fast with
little pressure on them.
...The seat should be set at a height such that you can
just touch the pedal with your heel at the down stroke
with your knee fully extended..."
