Your choice either an Apple a day or a Bike Ride a day to keep the doctor away

Or do both and live forever.

Study shows that about an equal amount in health care costs will be recovered if Portland, OR invests in bike infrastructure. A $600 million investment will return $594 million in health care savings over the next 30 years.

The study was published in the Journal of Physical Activity and Health and is titled Costs and Benefits of Bicycling Investments in Portland, Oregon by Thomas Gotschi.
