Intermission: Spring beckons

The snow is finally receding in Cheboygan, and soon we will be able to reclaim the trails from the snowmobilers. Are you excited? Here’s a golden oldie: video of my commute from work to home, from last summer, via the North Central State Trail. I biked this 18-mile commute, from June to October, and lived to tell the tale. In fact, it put me in the best shape I’ve been in for a long time.

Do you want to save money? End global warming? Add years to your life? Enjoy the great outdoors?

Then here’s a challenge: take your second car, if you have one, and take it off insurance. See whether you can get by on a single car and a bike, and pocket the money you would have spent on insurance. Buy something nice for your significant other.

My wife and I are celebrating 15 years of marriage today (April 1), and 20 years of cohabitation. Which just goes to show, that you can have a happy marriage, and only one car.
