My car junkered out recently. So instead of buying a new cheap car, I have started biking to work :).
This deserves badassity because, I have to get up at 5am and leave at 6, bike half a mile on 60mph road, hop on a country gravel road(on hybrid tires its a bit rough), go 4 or 5 miles and then hop back on the bigger roads (which doesn't feel terribly safe I will admit).
I'm sure others here are more crazy, but i've never been hugely into bikes and 6 months ago I was like... yeah thats never happening. So yeah cool :). My coworkers and family all think I've lost my mind and will shortly get run over...
My office (I'm a sys admin at an electric coop) is just a huge truck and SUV parking lot, literally not a single person drives a car, let alone a bike, so their reactions are comical.
PS. Also anyone think I should get an ebike? If I had a mountainbike ebike, it would handle the gravel with ease, and be fast enough to be doable on the faster roads. I want to... but at that point(1400$ maybe to build one?) it seems like maybe I should just get a car.
