Default Re: Steamed up my afternoon

I spent a week and a half visiting family in Reno and paid $4.00 a gallon. In London it's £1.35 a litre, or almost $8.90 a gallon.

I'm fortunate in that living and working in London, I can ride a bicycle anywhere I need to go. Public transport is an option but it's not always reliable and certainly not pleasant. A one month oyster card is £106.

I love riding, I love bikes. I know it's not feasible for everyone, particularly in the States, but relying on oil for transport isn't either.
