[06:25] wow. over 24 hours without a peep from anyone. [06:25] * Cheri703 lurks [06:25] * Unit193 is here [06:26] Heh. a room full of introverts. [06:26] * BiosElement stares at the room [06:26] IRC wallflowers, that's us. [06:28] * Unit193 hides under a table [06:49] * Cheri703 has been drooling over velomobiles today [06:50] Cheri703: Nice, but not very practical in the winter... [06:50] heck yeah they are [06:50] not in 3 inches of slush, but anything less than that, you can manage [06:50] I'm thinking more of the cold... [06:50] they're surprisingly warm [06:51] mostly enclosed, wear a jacket, you'll generate heat :) [06:52] scroll to the bottom for the 10 reasons you should get a velo: http://www.bentrideronline.com/?p=1733 [06:52] :) [06:53] wonder what kind of hassle the cops give you in one of those... [06:53] some people get hassled [06:53] people call it in as a go-kart on the road [06:53] but in MOST states, as long as it has 3 or fewer wheels, it's legally a bike [06:54] Ride naked? :) [06:54] so try as they might, there are no legal reasons they can keep you off the road [06:54] Ohio has weird laws, though. [06:54] well, I'm just saying, heat isn't a huge deal [06:54] :) [06:54] there are several people in ohio with them (well, a few I guess, not several) [06:54] But yeah... [06:55] yeah, I'd do plenty of research before getting one. and I'm sure the hillbillies around here will give me crap, but...eh [06:55] worth it [06:56] what if you get tired? [06:56] Take a nap. [06:56] you take a break [06:56] you're sitting in a recliner [06:57] so...pull over, have a snack, rest a bit [06:57] and you build up your conditioning gradually [06:57] some people commute about 20 miles each way, DAILY on their bike/trike/velomobile [06:57] * Cheri703 would need to get in shape, but could do it [06:58] I really should get on my bike again.. [06:58] * canthus13 used to ride 20-30 miles a day as a kid, just for fun. [06:58] I'm too fat and lazy to go all over with a bike/velomobile... [06:59] from here to galion every monday.... yep too lazy [07:00] when I was in high school (granted, better shape and younger), I went from little tiny rides and then rode 10 miles in an afternoon and was basically fine, was my first "big" ride on a recumbent bike [07:00] Unit193: you could do it [07:00] you're young :) [07:02] * Unit193 might get lost... [07:02] nah [07:03] try riding this instead... http://www.kevincyr.net/index.php?/project/camper-bike/ [07:03] yeah, I've seen that :) [07:04] www.bikesatwork.com has people moving RIDICULOUS things with bikes, even several people who did a house move by bike [07:04] towing couches, fridges, beds, etc [07:05] Anyway. It's my bedtime. :P [07:05] 'nite. [07:05] night [07:05] have a good one! [07:06] * Unit193 needs to be somewhere by 8:30-45 [07:06] that's not good [07:07] I don't like mornings... [07:07] nor do I [07:12] I really should slepp [07:12] ^ sleep [07:16] * BiosElement heads to sleep >.> [07:40] I don't think I like SAS anymore...
