Bicycling - USPS Forever Stamps

     As I mentioned in my previous entry, I ordered some forever stamps on USPS.com and received them this week. I'm going to share this sheet of 20 forever stamps, Bicycling, with you tonight.

      Bicycling is one of the most popular outdoor activities in the U.S. When I moved to the U.S., I was surprised about the fact that cyclists wear helmets and cycling clothing like professional athletes. In Japan, bicycling is one of methods of transports. When I was in high school, I rode a bicycle to school with wearing school uniform every day. When I was working in Japan, I also used a bicycle to go to the nearest train station. While many people ride bicycles in Japan, only few people ride them for fun or as a sport activity. That's why I thought that the U.S. is probably the number one country whose people love bicycling. Am I right?
