It was a shower thought for me this morning, after having seen all these record temperatures being broken around the world.

But, if it gets too hot to cycle, then people won’t. And if they aren’t cycling, they may start driving again, which compounds climate change even further.

Does this worry anyone else?

    Individually, not a significant difference, but when we’re talking about the potential for millions of cyclists to avoid riding, the impact would be felt.

    But yeah, large factories also need to calm the hell down if we are to stand any chance of surviving the next 50 years of climate change.

        Did you know its illegal to say that one strong hit with a 20ft speedboat at full throttle into the hull of a cargo ship in the section the two sheets of metal are welded on the broadside of the ship where the rivets are the weakest would take the ship down for repairs for months if not sinking it outright?

        Totally, recklessly wildly illegal.

        Now, it was okay for me to say it now because I was warning you not to say it. I wasn’t saying it myself.

        What IS legal to say is that we have a group that meets under the Brooklyn bridge 23:00 on Sundays and the password is sic semper tyrannis.

        Its not a fitting sentence because it has nothing to do with the previous statement, but it is technically legal!
