Bicycle Commuting
- Tropical Storm Commuting
I was disappointed yesterday that I did not get to bike to work, as it was my day to carpool. It was a rainy day, perfect for trying out my new Freddy Fenders. But not to worry, this morning I biked in during the leading edge of Tropical Storm Tammy. The fenders worked wonderfully!
It was actually refreshing to be cycling in the inclement weather. Much better than getting into a humid, stuffy van, blowing stale air through the vents. My only concern it that my even commute home will be during a torrential downpour. Oh well, anything to save the planet, right?
Bicycle News
- Bike Sales To Reach All-time High!
CNN reports that due to the surge in gasoline prices in the US, people are buying more bicycles to be used as an alternate mode of transportation. This is great news. The result could be over 20 million bikes sold in the US this year. That would break the record for bike sales set back in 1972, 1973, 1974 during the Arab oil embargoes.
Another effect, an obvious one, is that people are actually purchasing less gasoline. This will force more individuals to challenge their long held beliefs about our dependency on fossil fuels and look long and hard at alternative modes of transportation.
The article from CNN can be viewed here.
