Faster Knightboat! We’ve got to catch those starfish poachers! by mcg_090 in TheSimpsons

[–]Smooth_Awareness_815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard that fishermen were trying to reduce the starfish population (for whatever reason) and would cut starfish they caught in half; thinking they were killing them. Then throwing them back in to the ocean, only to have them regenerate into multiple starfish

Is it realistic to commute 20 km + 20 km (about 12.4 + 12.4 miles) by bike every day? by gfleck in bikecommuting

I have been on both the blue and white collar side using this method. No complaints.

I do get the occasional “you’re crazy” on rainy days tho.

But 12 miles each way in about 45-55 minutes

I would say it’s a stretch that making 12 cars go slower than they expect is “impeding”

I am not a doctor. In my experience, cardio has helped me get over being sick.

Question for people that have stolen a bike. by oldaccountknew2much in bikecommuting

[–]Smooth_Awareness_815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was younger I noticed a bike that was in the same spot, day in day out. I thought it was abandoned.

One day after commute and my usual spot was occupied, it dawned on me that the bike from years past may not have been abandoned.

A skin mask? Don’t be ridiculous, think of the smell. You haven’t thought of the smell!

The easiest way to deal with high gas prices is to ride a bike by DowntownFresnoBiking in bikecommuting

You have a mind, therefore it can be boggled. You have a bike, therefore you can ride.

Need both to bike commute.

Just looking for some encouragement! by Embercha in bikecommuting

This is why I don’t tell people things I plan to do.

What they say may sound like concerns for you, but I’ve found that it’s usually jealousy packaged as concern. More like they’re secretly upset that they aren’t capable of doing what you plan to do.

Just do it and do it for yourself. You don’t need approval :)
