i like to think my riding my bike to work this morning is going to help. but i know it won’t. once every couple years, someone else is inspired to try it for a while when they talk to me. i cannot think of one person who has stuck with it over time that i influenced. Some huge percentage of automobile trips are under 3 miles, according to bicycle propaganda sites i frequent. Hell, I know people who would literally car commute 4 blocks. weird. i understand car commuting isn’t our entire economy. but it’s the oil consumption aprt most visible and most absurd
