    逐字騎腳踏車是看見鄉間最好的方式之一。

    cycling 是「騎腳踏車」這件事本身的名字，可以是騎車代步，也可以是運動或休閒；它不可數，所以不說 a cycling。可以想成：動作是 cycle，加上 -ing 就變成這項活動的名稱，就像 swim 變成 swimming。一組字要分清楚：cycle 是動作，cyclist 是騎的人，bike／bicycle 是那台車，cycling 是這項活動。

core核心畫面

You can hold cycling as the whole business of being on a bicycle, wrapped up into one thing you can name: legs turning the pedals, road going by. It covers both getting somewhere and doing it for its own sake, so the same word carries the ride to work and the sport on television.

可以想成：把「跨上腳踏車、踩著踏板前進」這件事整包提起來當成一個名字。畫面裡腿在轉、路在退，至於是為了到某個地方，還是純粹為了流汗和開心，這個字都包得進去——所以早上騎車去上班是 cycling，週末爬山路是 cycling，電視上那種一整隊選手的比賽也是 cycling。
