Willow (she/her)Mastodon, you are a influence...
Since I joined I have ditched most subscription stuff like Spotify, Amazon and Netflix.
Made the swap to Linux.
Started painting.
Now I am considering whether or not I could be a Person Who Bikes Places.

it's quite a bit of fun, really
@brennen It looks like it. The problem is I do not like The Weather.
Hermannus Stegeman@MsHearthWitch @brennen there no such thing as bad weather. Only bad clothing 😇🤗😘
@hermannus 42C and higher and a medical condition that responds poorly to heat would disagree.

Is really much, but the joy od cycling is that you create your own wind. And do the same things you do when walking: eg. time of day, bring water, stay in the shade, don’t exaggerate… it extends your reach compared to walking. Compared to a car, well… No AC, no comfy chair and smaller reach. But way cheaper and no need for the gym!

Eggs now in different baskets.@Amiek @MsHearthWitch @hermannus Sometimes you do. But not always.
One hot summers day in Norway many years ago on the way up over the Vikafjellet pass towards Vik on a fully laden touring bike my speed was about five kilometres per hour.
The wind was also moving in the same direction as I was at a speed of five kilometres per hour.
You don't even need a medical condition to feel uncomfortably warm in such situations.
Everyone has different limits and abilities and preferences.
