There's something about riding a bike. You are immediately more aware of your surroundings than you are in a car. You notice things. You hear things.
The breathtaking beauty of a lake and the contrast between the trees, the water, and the sky.
The velvet brown look of the hills dotted with dark green trees.
The small sound of running water as you ride alongside a mountain stream.
The rush of the wind and the beat of your heart as you race down a hill.
A perfect group of tall flowers standing proudly by the roadside.
The taste, smell and texture of the food you eat.
On a bike, you soak these things in. You fully experience them in a way that you never will when you are riding, insulated from the world, in a car.
