So do you guys walk, bicycle, use the bus or a car?

If the last, do you have one car or many?

And whats the longest distance you'll walk rather than take a car/bike/bus/other?

Seeing that my legs aren't what they used to be I must take a car or taxi. Bus services to where I have to go aren't available. A bicycle isn't very fast and I get wet when it rains and I get hit by cars that don't give a shit about bikes!

I got a carbon fiber bike, babe....and I sure race on it all over town at speeds close to Mach 3....*overfetched*...

That is so those cars don't kill you.:D

longest daily distance I would take the bicycle is whatever I can reach in 50 min.

Currently taking the bus because my bicycle is broken. The distance i was taking by bicycle was 45 min. The bus does it in 35 min.

I drive my own car to work and the grocery store. On weekends we use my husbands truck. He's too big to fit into my tiny car comfortably.

I take the bus to work. Mostly I walk back, if I'm carrying a lot of papers or books, I take the bus. Walking distance 35 minutes, but I've walked an hour to work.

I drive my car to work because I have to go far too early to take the bus, but on the weekends if its less than 2 miles i'll walk it (i live in downtown area so its always less then two miles)

I take the bus to work, 20 mins. Dont have a car 'cos I dont need one.

and you are too young to drive.

I spend 3-4 hours on a city bus everyday to get to and from work. 3 buses in the morning, 3 at night. It sucks big hairy gorilla balls. I don't have a car right now either, Nic.

Me too.

I also don't have a car, although my wife does for her work commute. We don't use it much otherwise. I take a bus to work and bike or walk most other places.

anyone else race like wild on their bikes, on regular?

I walk to work and don't have a car because I live at the capital and can get everywhere by public transport if need.
I like walking, but I like running more. I run to places whenever I can.
It's faster and keeps me fit.
The longest distance I've walked is ~150km.

I like walking, work is an hour's drive or 2-1/2 hours on the bus...

[Edit]
One car.
Walking. car distance decision making depends on weather/ urgency/ destination I probably wouldn't walk five miles to an interview, but I'd walk five to go book shopping (influenced by the fact that on the walk back I can get one of my purchases read :))

My work is a 5 minute walk from home. :D

The longest distance I've walked is ~150km.

:eek:....non-stop? hiking?

No, not non stop, it's a 5 day hike through forests and swamps.

but I like running more. I run to places whenever I can.


Man...I only run if chased! :)

well than that doesnt count.

Of course it does, read SAM's question again, now more carefully.

Quoting from Sam

"And whats the longest distance you'll walk rather than take a car/bike/bus/other?"

distance=x=unknown
....

time=y=any time

....

well than I guess you are right. But I once spent a month in a village without any transportation...and every day I walked more than 5 miles... so that's more than 150 miles....without transportation in a month...beat ya...:o

It's not from point A to point B.

It's not from point A to point B.

:cool: well...from the start of the month I came through the front door...whereas at the end of the month I left from the back door...so that's point A and B...and in between I walked more than 150 miles all round for a month....:p

my current job doesnt come with a house so i have to drive to work(about 30km each way). when im at work however i get around on a motorbike 80% of the time.

there arent many places i can walk to. the nearest pub it about a 1 hour walk, and the nearest shop is 2 hours. come to think of it i dont actually go too many other places... work-pub-shop-home

.....the nearest pub......pub-shop-home

did you know...alcohol shortens life span?

so do lion attacks. your point?

so do lion attacks. your point?

pubs are bad for you. Enjoy fresh milk, juice, do kayaking...jogging...biking...instead.

Five days before laying inside a tight coffin...what memories will you remember in a flashback? the visits to the pub...imagine what life would have been otherwise, make it happen.

Don't teach others how to enjoy their lives.

On the roads? No. There are some pretty good tracks in the forest near where I live, where I do. I love downhill racing!

we don't have public transportation in our town. I suppose I could ride a bike the 8 miles to work, but then I'd be arriving all stinking sweaty at work.

Do all of you who ride a bike to work, have showers there?

well I got YMCA (brand new...made in 2005)...so I take a shower there

If it wasnt for naked men...who purposely show off their goods in dressing room...YMCA would be a perfect place otherwise.

And whats the longest distance you'll walk rather than take a car/bike/bus/other?

I drive A LOT! At least 1,000 miles a week. But everyday I drive to school and park about 1-1.5 mile away from campus to walk. I do this for 2 reasons:

1) Exercise
2) It's free. Parking is expensive downtown.

i catch the bus to school with my youngest son, and i catch the bus with him back, but all other times i walk to the shops, and i walk back, i try not to use the car if i can help it.

am I the only one with more than one vehicle??

I'm usually walking or riding a bike if I have enough money to go hang out with people and actually have fun. Other than that, sometimes I run down to this giant park in the city next to where I live, and I'm only ever in a car when I can find someone to give me a ride.

am I the only one with more than one vehicle??

we got 2 cars and two motorbikes

basically women have more than one car...thus emit more carbon dioxide gas which pollutes atmosphere and increase global warming

am I the only one with more than one vehicle??

I have 2 trucks, but I only drive one. I am trying to sell my older one.

Regarding the poll: favorite and most frequent are not necessarily going to refer to the same thing.

i walk everywhere.
i own two bicycles, and refuse to use them.
when you walk, you can see your surroundings much better.....
enjoy life and it's little moments while you can. being in a hurry is such a waste.

I like biking a lot. Since I have a bicycle, I rarely use shopping trolley (previously I just
walk to nearest supermarkt with it) or public transport (train/bus) although I can use
them for free if I bring my student ID. I dun have car.

Since I live in California, I have to drive my car everywhere because everything is spread out so far away. If I lived in a big east coast city, I would just use the metro system and/or bicycle without ever having to spend money on gas.
