http://www.youtube.com/TheGuysManual Grape-Nuts and ESPN's Kenny Mayne show that you too can save the planet just by riding your bike to work in this episode of The Guy's Manual.

HOST KENNY MAYNE
Earth. Its kind of important, and not just because I live here. Mother Earth is a precious resource with babbling brooks and mighty trees and cellophane flowers with marmalade skies. We should all do
our best to preserve it like Pete, here.
Okay, Pete's a bad example. But maybe Pete can change. And if Pete can change, the world can change. Pete, are you thinking what I'm thinking?

I'm gonna buy organic toilet paper!

I was thinking more along the lines of riding your bike to work. And with these simple nuggets of wisdom, you can get started today. Okay, first tip. Update Your Wheels. Bikes have changed since 1986 and so have you. Last thing you wanna look like is one of those bears that ride around on the tricycles.
Road bikes, mountain bikes, beach cruisers. Find a bike that fits your body type and your budget. Looking good, Pete. But remember tip number 2.
Riding your bike isnt as cut and dry as you remember. Not only do you have to account for the extra time it takes to get there, you need to make sure you
can handle the length of your ride.
Dare I suggest shifting gears when
riding up hill? Also, be smart about the routes you take. Cuz some routes are
definitely better than others. As youre settling into the beginning of your work day, you dont want to smell like old buffalo meat. No one likes the stinky kid in class. Bring some deodorant and a fresh change of clothes and your office mates will thank you for it. And last but not least, always be sure to store your ride somewhere
safe.

Saving the planet does have its benefits. Until next time, enjoy being a man who gets the tough things done.
