and yur groen-up byk is fur lawng rides in the countree?

Ai has to ryd mai byk fore mai jawb - srsly; its in mai kontract - so werk has to gib me teh byk. Tehy gibs me a Brompton (bedderer re-sayl valoo; can taek it awn buses an trayns wit me; etc) but Ai donut mush lyk it so Ai yushully ryd mai reel byk. Moesly Ai do kwite short trips fore werk - 20-30mins - but wun ob teh skools Ai werk wit is a 20myl rown trip form mai haos; taht wun taek a bit lawnger tahn 20mins to get to! But is verree preety ryd throu teh parks an countreesyd an mai contac tehre is teh verreenysman, so well werf teh effort!

But, frum whut ai has seen, we donut generallee has the lovelee convenient and saife bike path found in Europe - and ai presume teenietinee Ingerland?

Frum mai apartment in Kornwestheim (a liddle town betweent Ludwigsburg and Stuttgart), ai cud ride all the way to downtown Stuttgart (about 6 myls) awn bike paths, crossing awnlee WUN road wif cars awn it. Ai miss it a lot.

Yup, Ai ryds mai byk awl yeer roun an wher Ai livs has teh bykpaths awn pavements an craws cuntry, awai form teh rodes. Is verree gud, akchully.

Ai meets mennee groen-ups hoo sai Ai yuse to ryd mai byk but…An Ai wuz wun ob tehm, til Ai got tihs job, neerly a yeer ago. Tehn Ai HAD to sykul an nao Ai dunno wy Ai eber stawped! Eef yu wont to ryd yur byk, praktiss awn teh kwyet rodes tehn go owt wit an ekspeeriensed, groen-up syklist (nawt wun ob yur kids hoo dunno wot feer oar rode-sens R!) an sykul wit tehm a fyu tyms, til yu feel moer confimadent.

Las week Ai sykulled daon Euston Road; form Kings Crawss stayshun to Paddington Stayshun, rite in teh middul on Lahndahn, in teh rushower - it wuz rilly cool!!

Thanks Ambercat and Po’sPplMa - isn’t it fun talking abawty sykling? Amber, u has inspired mee to just get out an do it. Ai havn’t nao in over ten years and ai reelee miss it.

Purrhaps ai will survive heer if ai am veree careful! Ai certanlee know whut feer is - an ai has rode-sens, ai think! But oh, hao ai longs fur those lovelee bike paths.

An think hao mutch we cud awl do fur global warming if menee moar peepl wud sycle insted ov driving. Purrhaps yoo, Amber, wil also inspire menee otters to do as yoo are dong.

Noe need to tank me Ma’am; Ai’s jus doin mah jawb!

Go fore it, JCH4K! Go, gurl, go!!!

now taht’z obscure!!!!!

Yes: “Doozy” is the nickname for a Deusenburg automobile (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duesenberg). Tribble’s original reference is from the Bugs Bunny cartoon. Both a little obscure to many folks.

Yes - u reelee are in trubble when you duz that! Ai wuz training to luk up a cupple ov things that paws4thot said. The full kaylee, teh sein dubh, and the LOLROFHHS. It’s the “hhs” a donut know, bt ai feel a liddle silleeh asking.

But awl ai got wuz the ICHC comments where he sayed it in teh first place! Tehn ai wuz LOLROF ing, but ai’m nawt sure ai wuz doing teh HHS!
