#utilitycycling — Public Fediverse posts

@trainguyrom Yeah, the being poorly/recovering from serious illness part of #UtilityCycling is where an e-bike would be super handy! Wouldn't stop me being blown off into a hedge (or under a tractor) though.

I wish I could tell when the windfarm on the hill over the road was stopped because it's too windy, and when it's because there's no capacity for the electricity it would be producing. I think "too windy for a windfarm" is probably a good measure for cycling.

Cycling fitness tip: live at the top of a hill and buy 7.5 litres of paint from a shop at the bottom of the hill.

I biked 4,042 km in 2023. 44.1% of that was for recreation; 55.9% was for utility (with 32.0% for my commute). Almost all of this was on my Raleigh Record Ace.

I spent $417.37 on #cycling, including building new bike stands for my office. That's $0.103/km, or $0.185/km if you only count utility cycling. Compare to about $0.40/km driving!

I used #ledgercli to track distances and expenses, and #gnuplot for the graph.

#Introduction. I'm in the UK, I'm into #UtilityCycling and #ActiveTravel more generally and will post #VignettesFromTheBikeLane, especially if there's a dog in a basket or a small child wearing a tutu. I go for long #walks and will post the photos with #RosamundiWalks. I #read a lot and #sew. I follow #cricket (England #EnglandCricket, Lancashire #RedRoseTogether and Middlesex #OneMiddlesex) and take lots of photos of swans.
