Helmet

[iago]

As much as I hate it, I figured that, if I'm going to be riding my bike in traffic to/from work, I'd better buy a helmet.  I found a dark-blue one which doesn't look too bad and that fits well (my head is too big for most

[deadly7]

lol
Ron's a safety geek!
I haven't worn a helmet since I was 6...

[iago]

My work is about a 75 minute bike ride, each way.  And it's down a busy street at rush hour.  I'd rather be safe than get injured, even if it looks silly

You should take a cow to work, but this whole biking thing... I can't comprehend... iago + exercise ?!?!? that's unpossible :[

[Towelie]

[Newby]

Helmets r f0r suckaz.

I'll take a picture of me with a helmet on later. My helmet is way too small though.

I usually take the bus, which has a lot of advantages:
- Lots of chicks on the bus
- I get time to read
- I get time to relax
- It's cheap

Problems with using a car:
- Parking downtown is very expensive
- Gas is very expensive ($4/gallon)
- Buying a car is expensive

Advantages of riding a bike:
- Exercise is good, I need it

Now if you looked like that you could pick up many chicks.

Advantages of a cow:
- You look cool
- It'll be faster
- Won't have to mow the lawn
- Don't really have to be worried about someone stealing it
- You can wear a cowboy hat instead

- You obviously don't get out much
- You can read all the road signs/bill boards/shop signs you want then you drive
- Cars/motorcycles have more comfortable seats
- It's smelly

Problems with using a car:
- Parking downtown is very expensive
- Gas is very expensive ($4/gallon)
- Buying a car is expensive

- *cough*bullshit*cough* Get a company spot
- For $19/hour you should be able to afford gas
- Get a used car!

Advantages of riding a bike:
- Exercise is good, I need it

- Okay, you got me there...

[iago]

This argument is dumb, but ohwell

- You obviously don't get out much
- You can read all the road signs/bill boards/shop signs you want then you drive
- Cars/motorcycles have more comfortable seats
- It's smelly

- shush
- I read a book
- No they don't, they're at least as comfortable
- No they don't, not here anyway

- *cough*bullshit*cough* Get a company spot
- For $19/hour you should be able to afford gas
- Get a used car!

- This is downtown in a pretty big city, they don't have company spots.  Only one guy at work drives, and he pays a ton for his spot.  Everybody else bikes/busses.
- Just because I make money doesn't mean I should waste it
- No, I'm not going through that again.  I spent way too much money fixing my old car.

You bastard.  Why do you get good busses?  The shit ones I have to take home are smelly, dank, dark, and full of smelly ugly people.

[RoMi]

In Boston we have a good bus system.  Get a moto-scooter for like 400 bucks.  And they hold about 1 gallon of gas and are about 100 miles to the gallon.
