Commutes were excluded, meaning the analysis focused on how people moved during their free time when they were allowed to more freely choose how to get from place to place.
So, the numbers below might actually be higher than reported?
Cyclists had a 19 percent lower risk of all-cause dementia, 22 percent lower for Alzheimer’s specifically, a massive 40 percent lower risk for early-onset dementia, defined as dementia that hits before the age of 65, and 17 percent lower for the standard late-onset.

It sure saves your mom a lot of time when she comes bicyclin for that booty late at night to my house. The parking is bad around my place is what I am saying.
Actually though, riding a bicycle is like a super power even if you are only going 5 mph on flat ground, I would be shocked if it wasn't like a superfood for your brain so long as you weren't taking big risks while doing it.
Funny you should mention big risks: I read a study a few months ago that said downhill MTB is still a net gain for your overall health even with the extreme dangers the sport can pose. People really underestimate how dangerous being sedentary is.
Yep. Iirc, cycling is not only the safest way to cross any distance, but it's statistically safer than sitting on a sofa. (Lots of accidents happen at home.)
lol bro whatever, those studies are all funded by big Grizzly Bear so they can get even easier snacks then fishing for salmon
