How green is your daily journey?

As an added thought: if it's true that regular cyclists stay healthier and alive for a few more years than non-cyclists, then that needs to be reflected in the calculation as well. "We" green cyclists will continue to lead lives on this planet for longer than our car-driving and train-travelling brothers and sisters, who will kick the bucket before we do. "We" will thus continue to belt CO2 into the air for longer - bad on us.

Now this could all be compensated for if rumours about time in the bicycle saddle resulting in reduced fertility for men were true, but I understand that there is little substance to that fertility-issue-rumour. As a group, we might have compensated for our longer lives by having fewer children otherwise ...

I have three kids so the bike has not affected the clackers at all

Have you not gone through a drive thru on your bike? My local Mc'Ds wont serve after 11pm at the drive thru if on foot, so when am drunk and they wont serve me, I just change and get on the bike and not a problem!

Haha, will they really serve you on a bike? I have been wanting to try this. Although I doubt having a huge McD's dirtburger or two mid ride will improve my time.
