Ok I'll catch two buses and a train. Or three buses. I'll only have to wake up at 5am everyday and go to bed at 9pm after returning home at 8:30. Totally viable.
If only there was something with two wheels
Ride a bike for a 38 mile round trip every single day to another city and back when there is no bike lane connecting said cities?
Bikes just aren't viable for anybody who sweats like a bitch.
My workplace provides showers and lockers for staff who sweat on their way to work.
I can leave my smelly cycling gear in my locker and change into the work clothes I carried in, and wear the shoes I leave at work in the locker
Oh no, not bodily functions!
38 miles every day....
I have to meet clients mate. I'm not going to do that stinking of BO
You're crazy
And you're scared of change
38 miles mate. Ludicrous to even suggest it as an option.
38 miles on a bike is nothing lol
I know someone with asthma that does farther than that for fun
Yeah for fun, on a Saturday. Not every single day for a 9 to 5. You would have to be certifiably insane.
No. Sometimes on their way to work since it only takes a few hours to go 40ish miles.
It would take me 4 hours in total every single day. Absolutely zero chance.
Plus no way I'm going to work covered in sweat every day. I have a duty to look presentable.
One becomes faster as one cycles more
LOL
