But why would it be less safe? !LUV !CTP

It's because there may be a (slightly) greater risk of accidents or untoward incidents when a person is cycling alone especially in faraway places the cyclist may not be very familiar with, and it would be more difficult (and also risky) to ask for help from strangers (in case those unfortunate events occur) than from friends. 😨😅 !LUV !CTP

Yes depending on the place where one is cycling this is true... Here in Mallorca it's relatively safe. Probably mainly because we're on an island. Where are you living? !HUG !PGM

It sounds like more fun to ride a bicycle while on an island, but it might not be as fun if you do it (almost) everyday. 🤔🚴😅 !HUG !LUV

Maybe you imagine "an island" like 10km in one direction adn 15km in the other? !LOL

That "island" would be 25 kilometers in diameter! 🤓 Its circumference would be about 78.54 kilometers, such that navigating near the shores around the island would take several hours or even a day to cover! 😆😅 !LOL !CTP

10 by 15m will still be a diameter of 15m for me... Or is my maths getting really bad? !LOL !PIZZA

What’s blue and and smells like red paint?

Mallorca is well know for it's cycling routes; a lot of people from a lot of European countries come here regularly to train or just to enjoy. Obviously the climate helps... !HUG !LUV

I wonder who among your Hive friends in other European countries often visit where you live to enjoy cycling. 🤔 You should communicate with them to plan cycling together and/or interact with Hive using either #Actifit or #Strava. 🤓 !HUG !LUV

Most of them are not from Europe and / or are not cycling. Apart from that when people having holidays here, I'm not having holidays, and when I'm taking holidays I'm generally not staying here. !HUG !PIZZA

I wouldn't say they prefer it, rather than they're doing it anyway (for example when they don't know people who want to come along with them when they want or have the time to ride) !!LUV !CTP

The fact that you said that you "don't know a lot of cyclists that like to exercise alone" suggested that you know a few cyclists who like to exercise alone. 🤓

When you are cycling together with other people, there can always be differences in preferences, such as your fellow cyclist saying "I want to visit that place" or "I want to rest" when you want the opposite. 🤯😅 !LUV !CTP
