    How many gallons does the ambulance take to get the cyclist to the hospital after the hit and run?

    (Seriously tho bicycles ftw except in winter)

      Less, probably, because cycling in on itself is safer than driving a car. Lower speeds, less mass, less injuries.

      Also, winter cycling.is awesome

        I was being facetious; ambulance fuel use is a silly comparison :)

        Listening to all y’all winter cyclists I lament that I live in a city where the bike lanes are where the city piles up the snow it plows off the car lanes on the streets. RIP me. It gives me hope and happiness to know that there are cities that don’t do this!

          Yeah those would be cities that see bikes as children’s toys instead of what they are: a better form of medium range transit
