        does bike to home from work counts ? I was at my GF's place this week-end, so will bike home instead (bike share).

        I'd rather be phishing!

          We have no showers at work... Can you imagine how I would smell after ~27 Km of biking uphill?

                  Yeah, but stripped-wallpaper is some kind of an issue, anyway...

                    I'd rather not. Do you have further questions? (I was wondering if your initial question truly qualified as KSS, all things considered).

                      We have showers at work, the only person I've ever seen use the bike rack lived at most a mile away. Much more than that in either direction and you'd start down the step part of one side of an 1000 foot ridge or the other. For some odd reason no-one ever wanted to bike up the thing in the morning. :^)

                        I'm on a client site, 180 miles from home. That's a lot of cycling I'd have to do - especially when I had to cross the mountains. It might just rumple the suit.

                          I usually walk to work but it's going to be around 112F today so I felt driving was the safer option.

                            Thought about it (motorcycle) but the chance of thunderstorms made me think twice. It would take me a couple hours to get to work on a bicycle, which I did 40 years ago.

                                      About 50000 people in switzerland participate in Bike-To-Work[^] during May and June. That's two months! (although for the purpose of participating in the competition you just pick one month)

                                      GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)
