This weekend our daughter’s school hosted their annual pancake breakfast. What’s cool is that for the past few years that we’ve been going to this event, my wife, kids and I would normally ride our bikes there. But what’s sad is that there are way too many parents that drive their kids to school every day as well as to this event. I say that it’s sad because most of these families live no further than 2 miles from the school. I’ve seen one parent who is literally 100 yards away from the school but I’ll often see them getting in their Nissan Armada, (an SUV that gets about 12-15mpg) then driving to the school…ah I just don’t get it.
Back to the pancake breakfast. So we got there and fortunately there were a few families that actually rode bikes, cool! But if you check out the parking lot, as usual, bicyclists are minorities.
Here’s something that was kinda funny…check out the lock job on this. The dude’s wife had asked him if he should redo the way he locked the bikes to better protect them and all he said was…”eh, it should be fine…”
