urban and urban sprawl are where bike travel really shows its advantages. I match car speed just about anywhere in the New Orleans or Los Angeles sprawls for rides sub-30 miles. Immunity to traffic is amazing.

So don't fret, young sprite. If we peer pressure fat people into losing weight, their shiftless asses will just mooch the system to a greater degree later in life.

The fatties you hate so much will die younger and unburden the insurance companies AND our economy will magically turn around and we'll all be riding in flying cars in no time.
lol i asked you for a study and you linked a NYT article

For an initial post that was completely vitriolic and lacking in any type of substantive content, you're awfully worked up about seeing evidence that might contradict your viewpoint. This shows that you're obviously a very complicated, deep thinking individual.

I bet you're a Truther also, aren't you?

but i read it since you tried.

Note that the only thing studied was the overall cost of care; socioeconomic variables were not even brushed. Study is meaningless for the argument you make.

yeah just blow me off when piles and piles of evidence that the government story is a fallacy are a google away. Bush knocked down the towers and saying that doesn't hurt my credibility.

Yup. I can almost always beat traffic on a bike in TDot by blatantly disregarding bike laws.
It gets me where I need to be, and I've never been ticketed so whatevaaa

Sorry man, I feel like I've really disappointed you. I gave you evidence that fatties die younger, I thought you'd be ecstatic. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Urban Sprawl is also why we have so many cars. You can bike fine in sprawled out cities, the problem is getting people onto the bikes.
