Due to the Miami Marathon, traffic getting to AmericanAirlines Arena was brutal for today’s Heat-Bulls matinee. As reported by ABC during the telecast, LeBron James took the traffic into consideration and made alternate plans for his commute — specifically, he rode his bike.
Here is the pictorial evidence, via @tedhill:
Notice he’s rocking the helmet. Safety first, kids!

He is Cool,,,, thats Lebron James
D*mn King James! What a way to get ur legs pumped up to start the game! Nice win!!!!!!!!!!! Let’s go HEAT!!!
Great job Lebron – how many miles did he commute??? I rode my bike to work – 15 miles.
GO HAWKS!
Great LeBron James!!!! Really cool to see people like LBJ riding a bicycle to go to work
Go Heat!!!
Chris Kaman to the Hawks!!!
wowww…so cool…lbj all the way….
@and
and gee most athletes NEVER do this, so thats why its a story. keep chuggin the haterade tho. must be a bulls fan.
ffs ditch the helmet and jump the lights, if you are a real cyclist
He’s the man!!
After seeing you jump over the bulls player when dunking, i have to say, ride the bike to work more often!!! Peace out!
Good decision LeBron.
GO LEBRON!!!
GO HEAT!!!!
GO GREEN!!!!!
Good job going green.
Good job for safety.
Wait a sec, helmet, but where’s the elbow and knee pads?
What if he falls and can’t play anymore at the game?
Yeah, sure he didn’t. He played, but still, you need to.
Or, was safety more to disguise you from others.
Go Le-Bike James!!!
Bicycle… Bicycle… I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike.
sources say lebron was seen taking the basket and the streamers off his bike moments earlier
I cant see Kobe doing anything like that. Nice one, Bron!
when u have 5 RINGS you dont need to ride a bike to work..maybe the bike ride got his legs tired..he did miss free throws down the stretch against the Bulls…lucky Heat won
Jeff Van Gundy and the talking heads of ABC are so far up Lebron’s butt, Lebron has no need for a colonoscopy Jeff has already checked everything out!!
I love lebron and this was a cool thing to do, hopefully helps get the kids into it too. But Kobe does win swagger points arriving in a private chopper is alot cooler haha
who was talking about rings? the heat had a good win tonight.. stop hatingg
I don’t get it… So he rode a bike for a couple of miles, what’s the big deal?
Let’s get Lebron and the rest of the NBA to all call their representatives to make sure we can all ride bikes and walk safely. The American Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Act completely removes dedicated funding for biking and walking, including Safe Routes to School. The vote is on Thursday. Contact your representative today.

If the Lebron haters would take the time to read & comment on an article on their favorite instead posting your hate on articles about Lebron, then maybe they will write more articles on them. Haters always want to know what Lebron is up to but read a article about some of the players that they claim is better and they show them no love. We get Lebron highlights and articles because thats what we like. The journalist gotta to give the people what they want…and that would be KING JAMES!
Only in America this is a big thing
here in Finland we walk, ride bikes, we have very good public traffic. People coming to work for example by bike is normal, even like from 10 kilometers away.
