[quote=Anonymous][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]

I don't get it.  This is an anonymous forum and there is literally no personally identifying info in your post.  What possible reason could you have for not giving the reason and thus identifying the school.  Plus if the reason is SO specific that only one school could possibly have that reason, then it seems a bit silly to say that bikes are bad on campus.  It sounds like bikes are just bad on this one campus who has something so unique about them that it makes bikes bad. [/quote]
I have a few ideas: (1)Mandatory uniform includes a kilt, traditionally worn with nothing underneath (2) 12 cyclists were stoned to death on campus in the last 6 months  (3) campus hermit gets 'triggered' (4) Campus speed limit of 5MPH is religiously enforced (5) Mandatory lute playing is incompatible with bicycling.
