[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are also these nifty things called bicycles now that can help you travel a half-mile in about two minutes. [/quote] Bikes aren't a good idea on this campus. I'm actually a cyclist so I know all about bikes. My son specifically asked about bikes on a campus tour he took a year ago, and the tour guide said no one really rides to class on this campus--he gave the reason and while I don't want to post it here (don't want to reveal the school), as a cyclist myself I will say it makes a lot of sense.[/quote] What reason could that be ? Rain/snow? People commute in all kinds of weather and you'll get no wetter than walking. Theft? A cheap bike and a good lock make it unlikely. Hills? Shift and keep pedaling. People walking? Ring a bell. Cars? They are everywhere. Campus won't be worse. Seriously what is it , I'm reaching here ... [/quote]
