Go By Bike!

Slate ran a story the other day about the recent "Carmageddon" on LA's 405. The basic idea was to measure the length of time various methods of transportation would take.

The results were:
  • Bike: 1:34 
  • Metro/Walk: 1:44 
  • Rollerblades: 2:40 
  • Plane/Lost Cabdriver: 2:54

While I've recently joined the ranks of those who bike commute, I gotta give props to whoever skated from Burbank to Long Beach.

Maybe a 4th event for the 2012 Vanport City Triathlon?
