  • How fast can your average 80 year old woman run 5k? Oh of course, there are only young fit people in the world.
    All the 80 year old ladies I know either have a car (one grannie), or they walk to their destination (my other grannie).

    It's called walking. You might have heard of it.

      They own more of it than cyclists. Look at how much more they contribute towards infrastructure with registration fees (hell, I have to pay to register my car every year with both the city AND the province) and gasoline taxes.

      • I would've taken you for a bike rider, Ben... For some reason, religious people and oddly enough homosexuals both strike me as more likely to be bike riders.

          Great sample size.

          • What if the grannie has a walker?

                • Both my grannies are dead. Love to see them walk 5k.

                  • But they probably don't need a bus either. Stop supporting Ben's troll!
                    Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

                      Mine too.

                      Really insensitive by Ben to rub in the fact that my grandmas are dead.

                        So you are arguing that cyclists should fund their own bike paths through cyclist registration fees and cycle taxes? Deal.

                          6 months of snow. -20 temps for 4 months of the year. Cars are a godsend. I've been without one for 10 years, and with one for a year. Wouldn't give mine up for anything, and I'd be a hypocrite if I supported bike lanes to assuage my guilt over making a sensible decision to drive.

                          Technically I'm still one of the granola eaters, as few folks have longer experience with public transit than with private transportation..

                            I suppose they enjoy their bus rides too.

                                Ben this is as accurate as your portrayal of me as an Oilers fan.

                                Are you or anyone really trying to assert that car registration fees comes anywhere close to the cost of maintaining the road networks and all the car-traffic related costs. I doubt that but would love to be proven wrong
