Around here you have to have a car to get anywhere outside the town of 1k people (2+ hour drive to any town bigger than this one - including one with a car rental agency). <br />BUT I find it possible just to park the car (pickup) in the garage and cover it with enough stuff that it takes longer to dig it out than it does to just hop on the bike and get to work. Unfortunately part of that is because work is so Dang close (so is everything else). <br />The spouse and kid both take their bikes to everything in town - and thanks to the oversize basket even weekly shopping gets done this way. <br />But the town is so small that we are still only getting a little exercise. And visiting a big town is too far via bike- (@ 150 miles).JJGreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06708302086326564665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-5360941545436551212014-08-14T06:32:02.779-07:002014-08-14T06:32:02.779-07:00Remember, the key is to sell the car so it is neve...Remember, the key is to sell the car so it is never a viable alternative and will destroy your will to exercise. There, I just summed up most of the booklet for you. I eat butter and fat and massive amounts of bread and I can't gain weight. My biking is an hour and a half- but I don't think you will eat 3-4k calories a day like I do on account of my job so it should about even out.James M Dakinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382139289994087931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-80897954823884704242014-08-13T16:29:31.267-07:002014-08-13T16:29:31.267-07:00Any diet where I can keep my employment, and exerc...Any diet where I can keep my employment, and exercise well removed from the rest of the vapid herds of yuppies definitely has my attention. <br />Of course unlike you I get paid for my brains not my brawn at my career, so cubical sitting is 8.5 hours of my day. The workplace and rental house (no trailer parks in this tiny town) are less than a mile apart so the bike ride is very short to and from work - even going home on lunch hour only gives me a total of maybe forty minutes bike riding in an entire day, if I also run errands... <br />But improving the land (digging ditches, putting up fences, planting trees, etc.) seems to be ever so slowly trimming off a little of the fat. But if I could trim off more of the fat I know I would be even more productive on the land.<br /> JJGreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06708302086326564665noreply@blogger.com
