I wasn't always #fat as a blimp. back in the late 90's I was winning triathlons.
how did I stay fit? my primary mode of #transport was a custom #Mongoose #BMX , riding around #Shepparton , VIC, #Australia .

how did I become fat? I got a driver's licence, a #car , and I stopped riding, not because I didn't enjoy it, but because car was faster in rural areas.

trips to friends houses went from an hour ride to a 10 minute drive.

Question for Mastodon users:
How the hell do I set the order of my pictures in my posts. I've tried dragging them, that does nothing. I've tried adding them one at a time, instead of sharing both from the gallery in one shot, but if I do them one at a time, then tell the mastodon app to add another, it just straight crashes.

Pixelfed is more confusing though, when creating this same post, I put the photo of me on the bike first, but after I posted it, pixelfed changed the order to trophy first, which I didn't want.

Driving from #adelaide to #sydney in an #ev. #flood waters appear to be rising again near #wangaratta and #shepparton blocking some lanes on arterial roads such as Midland hwy and hume hwy.

Travelling from #sydney to #adelaide in an #electricvehicle. The great thing about a 50kw charger is that it will finish just in the time for end of lunch at lazy Moe's in #shepparton.

In July, #Shepparton's fruit and vegetable processor #SPC (otherwise known as the #SheppartonPartnersCollective), became the first workplace in #Australia to mandate #covidVaccines for all onsite staff and visitors (abc.net.au, 2021/08/05).

As of 30 August, Shepparton #Victoria is "one of the state's most significant outbreaks", see link in next toot.
