There has been a bit of a hoo-har at work about the reduction in car parking
places. Discussing this with some of those who commute by car, I often get
the response "I'd love to cycle but it's too far". Legitimate point but now
with an interesting twist.
How much do you pay in car park charges? 120 per year.
How much in fuel? far too much...
Why not park a bit further out of town and ride in on a folding bike? You'll
be quids in by the end of the year, get a nice refreshing ride in, and still
have teh car available to drive in if the weather is really ****. You'll
save the car parking charges, and the extra fuel cost which will add up to
about 15 quid a week.
Quite a lot over the course of a year, and you know you'll feel better for
it as well.
