    That ! is an excellent picture

  1. The particle stats you have are wrong compared to the article you’ve linked to. Unfortunately it looks like cycling is 80,000 and walking is 50,000 – both more than being in the car :-( .

  2. As much as I love biking (I bike to work every day, and it’s the best part of my work day), I have always wondered what the effects of breathing in the cars’ exhaust fumes are and will be on my health. I can imagine that exposure is worse for cyclists than it is for riders in cars, although I would think it couldn’t be that much different between the two if the drivers either have their windows open or do not have the ventilation system closed off to the outside. One big difference between the two is that cyclists are more likely, due to their higher metabolic rate, to be flushing toxins out of their system.

    Cars are really cows, you know. Yes, cows. Maybe you didn’t know that. Yes: Couches On Wheels

    And drivers are couch potatoes. (We need a picture of a potato on a cow.) Then we’d have the image of an car ‘driver’ equivalent.

  3. Absolutely by chance, I stumbled across where these bikes come from in Amsterdam on the Cleverchimp blog:

    Pictures from “Eurobike foray” on his blog page, several of this Filibus model:

    Two A’dam stores that sell this version of the Filibus:
