Cyclists are not well known for their capacity for long-distance travel, really they are better suited for commutes and the like (not that it can’t be done)

Edit: people it’s not that deep I was just poking fun at bikes not being great for ‘just leave’-ing (I assume OP did not intend for them to be returning)

Wait till you learn about buses and trains' capacity for long distance travel.

[-] doleo@lemmy.one 4 points 6 days ago

tell me more about this frequent long-distance travel that humans must make

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml 9 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I don't know, but I when I travel long distances for vacations and things like I try to take a train if it's available.

[-] thanksforreading@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 days ago

I would wager most people could not do that.

Because they are too fat and unfit from sitting on their moving fossil fuel powered sofa all day.

That's like me telling other people that deadlifting 600 or so just takes practice.

[-] thanksforreading@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago

I mean it's true. Deadlifting 600 does just take practice.

No, it isn't. A significant number of people could never move that conventionally, or possibly in any other form.

Even among competing strongment and powerlifters you have to have a certain luck with your baseline genetics--and even lucky smaller lifters may have problems.

Some of my biggest movements are over a thousand pounds. Many competing strong men will never reach that number on any particular lift. And you know what? I bike for shit and do cardio for shit.

It's irresponsible to pretend that anyone who cannot commit themselves to impressive feats of physical activity is just fat and lazy.

[-] thanksforreading@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago

It was a joke. What isn't a joke is America's built in car addiction. Even if you want to bike the fossil fuel industry and and auto manufacturers have subjugated urban planners and locked in dependency on their products. If you live urban or suburban and can't live your daily life without a car there is a serious design problem in your environment.
