#BikeToWork is usually pleasant, but seriously, 42°C ?
I am considering staying at work, with air conditionning, until 10 pm.
Even on days when it's 100 degrees and I'm exhausted, getting to work on my #EBike is still faster and easier than driving.
EBike: door to door, 15 minutes
Car: door to parking deck, then walk half a mile while carrying my stuff to my office, 25 minutes
Not everyone can live 2 miles from work, but for those who do, it's hard to beat a #bicycle

A #Bicycling #Monterey supporter wrote to us today, regarding #MontereyCounty's "#CarWeek" (Aug 11-20):
"My car week tradition for the last few years has been to commit to biking to work each day. Since moving late last year, my bike commute grew from 10 to 15 miles each way, and I'm sad to say I hadn't tried it since the move. I gave it a shot this week and am happy to report that it is still totally doable! I didn't realize how much I had missed commuting by bike!"

Also: father of two, make my own maps and computer tools, have my own home server (mail, gallery, RSS reader and more), fix as many things as I can myself, love to drive and travel by car, and much more.

"I’m still a fan of my acoustic, non-electric bike, but on some days, my #reporting calendar takes me too far afield to commit to riding a #BikeToWork. On many of those days, an electric bike is perfect."—Sara Rubin, #MontereyCountyWeekly #editor, in her 9 Aug 2023 piece "What will it take to change Monterey’s Bike Lane to Nowhere into a bike lane to somewhere?" https://www.montereycountyweekly.com/opinion/mcnow_intro/what-will-it-take-to-change-monterey-s-bike-lane-to-nowhere-into-a-bike/article_30fa0e70-3707-11ee-8906-a38888232ca8.html
