Same. 30 minute drive depending on traffic. 20 miles. Biking would be suicide. Already news stories almost daily about either a pedestrian or cyclist (pedal or motor) getting hit. Last time I looked, bus would take 3.5-4 hours. Yes, hours.
I totally get the fuck cars movement. And there are lots of valid points to it. But it’s also not a realistic option for a lot of people due to the current lack of alternatives and how public transportation is viewed as taboo.
And I can respect that. But, I’m a suburban dad and work in construction so yeah I own a pickup truck. I wouldn’t mind parking outside the city and it being walkable.
Oh fuck off, in two minutes there will be another guy coming along saying, “You don’t live in the city, eh?” It’s just whatever facile excuse comes into people’s head when they feel judged. Nobody makes you come here. Block the community.
You seem lost. Do you often believe you own all spaces to tell everyone what to do?
(Cuz no one made you come here either and you could just as much block the communities in which you are too fragile to visit)
The bike for 20-30 mins will not get you to and from work.
Besides: they got their exercise. Good for them looking after their health and finding ways to encourage a good habit into their daily schedule where they can however possible.
That’s great you can do that, but it’s definitely not something anyone here in my northern state would expect to be able to do. The situation you just described would be very difficult and dangerous.
I’m not biking 15mi (24.1km) to work by 7am, and then 15mi (24.1km) back home, for a total of 30mi (48.2km)/day, 5x a week. And that’s not even that far of a commute tbh.
You really just rode a fake bike for a while than drove a car to work. I know it’s not the point of this comic but what the hell.
My outdoor bike doesn’t have snow tires
You should change that.
My drive to work is an hour so definitely not biking it.
My drive is 35 minutes, but all 55-60mph, so like 30 miles. I’m not biking that, it’s not even safe on these roads, no shoulders.

Well, that’s your problem! Stop that!
Lmao you don’t live in a rural area huh
Yeah the fuckcars crowds are always city-folks
As a fuckcar crowd, I moved from a rural location to the city. Because, you guessed it, fuck cars.

In the middle of December LOL yes, do you put skis on your bike??
I have ridden a ski bike but for winter commuting I prefer to drive a Bombardier B-12.
I would too, if snow hadn’t been eradicated from my area
Just came back from college in a nearby town by bike, so I think that answers your question. No, skis aren’t neccessary unless its extreme weather
That’s great you can do that, but it’s definitely not something anyone here in my northern state would expect to be able to do. The situation you just described would be very difficult and dangerous.
