great video. Watching a lady walk. Terrific!

[useyourwords]

So much time gained enjoying life, enjoying being alive, enjoying good health. So much money saved on diet foods and health clubs. So much time not spent burning up fuel, killing the environment. So much time not spend wasted in traffic at stops, in ugly subways...

walking is fun but time consuming... i ride my bike so i can do more.. i also tried roller blades but i find them not so safe,,,dismounting on bikes during emergencies is easier :D

[Pruxii]

Weiner is right, get a bike!

[MuDDyBuLL3tS]

[WhiteGravey]

@PetrFM you know thats kinda what i was thinking... maybe she should buy rollerblades or a bike lol

[IMAGonTheInternet]

this isnt extreme

[richgilb]

That commute in the morning by bike would be awesome. Especially since the way there is mostly downhill. Getting back would only suck a little bit.

She rocks, and yes. I would also buy her a bicycle.

I ride 4 miles each way to work. (boston)

It's the best part of my day.

I wonder if she knows about the wishful plan

to close Central Park to cars.

(which I found somewhere on youtube)
