      Right, how about biking 3 minutes to the store? Make it 6 there and 2 back due to the height difference. Not every trip is 30+ minutes to work.

      São Paulo is pretty much as hilly as you can get, beset by mounts on all sides but one. People still bike, here.

          I’ll give you that, biking long distances is reserved for when you can bathe afterwards. Thankfully, you rarely need to bike long distances.

          They’re coming down in price, many places offer subsidies to get one, and there are puncture-resistant tires that do wonders. That said, I also live too far from work to bike, because I can’t afford to live where I work.
