cycling
UK: ˈsaɪklɪŋ | US: ˈsaɪklɪŋ
n. the activity or sport of riding a bicycle
n. the action or process of moving in cycles
The word "cycling" derives from "cycle," which originates from the Greek "kyklos" (meaning "circle" or "wheel"), via Latin "cyclus." The suffix "-ing" transforms the noun into a gerund, denoting the action or practice of riding a bicycle or moving in repetitive sequences. The concept of circular motion is central to both the mechanical function of bicycles and the idea of recurring cycles.
