Rode a bicycle to work first time and another small things
« on: August 11, 2014, 01:27:22 AM »
Hi fellow mustachians,

Today I went first to to work with bicycle. One way 10,5km (6.5miles). It took 35min compared to 15min with car. Not bad and I feel great :) I wasn't even so sweaty that I thought.

Thank you all for such an nice community. Because you inspired me I have fixed my bicycle (30 years old) by myself. I took it in parts and my jaw dropped in spare part shop. Total cost for fixing my bike cost 1,20€ :) Another small repairs are oil changing to car, ignition coils replacements and changing brake pads. Total saving several hundreds bucks.

Congrats! Feels great, doesn't it? It is one thing to dream Mustacianism, but when you start actually doing it and living it, it is such a high!

Thank you very much. It really adds up. Since I joined here savings are enourmous. If I just would have made the change years ago... :)
