@MsHearthWitch oh no this checks out
@jepyang Yeaaaaah. There are some ppl who are extremely religious zealots about stuff in a blinding way that is sooooo offputting.

@MsHearthWitch @hermannus Hoho! I would never bicycle is such temperature
Can barely do it with 24 C (sometimes even 18 C) since summers here tends to be very humid. 24 C can easily feel like 30 C with sauna effect.@airikr @hermannus Yeah, I wasn't kidding when I said I struggle with The Weather. The last few summers have been blindingly hot WITH 90% and higher humidity for days on end. I can barely function in my house with AC, I cannot imagine biking.

Since I joined I have ditched most subscription stuff like Spotify, Amazon and Netflix.
Made the swap to Linux.
Started painting.
Now I am considering whether or not I could be a Person Who Bikes Places.
@MsHearthWitch And next year you'll start knitting. Great!

@Whimsy I'm on POP OS! haha. Someone that I met on here helped me make the swap and suggest it as my primary use for my PC is gaming.
I hear thatβs a good one. I havenβt tried that one yet.

Last summer I had a blast riding up and down the Chicago lakeshore on an ebike with my daughter and her girlfriend. If you are serious about biking, you might truly extend your weather-range with an ebike. I bike to work in nice weather, but it's only half a mile each way for me, so I can't boast about it.

Well, maybe Mastodon will lead you to 3D printing or miniature photography, or home brewing. It's a big world, right?

@sandorspruit @MsHearthWitch @brennen
Biking is so common in the Netherlands, I cannot imagine life without them. And come to think of it. Very young children learn to bike on tricycles, bikes with some extra wheels when learning to bike. Then the rest of us would bike on bicycles. And then some elderly people again get a tricycle when they want to bike but need more wheels support. @regendans @sandorspruit @MsHearthWitch @brennen the rain can be a bit of a bother, but the real enemy is the wind.

@MsHearthWitch oh dang, you're gonna have a blast! It's so much fun! You can always just dip your toes in too if you're worried about weather or what not; just because you get a bicycle doesn't mean you have to bike *every* place (but you may find that you want to)! Welcome, and enjoy!
We have #BikeNite every Friday at 4PM Pacific on here if you have questions or concerns or just want some friendly folks to chat with (post them with the #BikeNitePQ hash tag and they get added to the queue and @ascentale will pick them up and start the discussion on Friday)!

@brennen It looks like it. The problem is I do not like The Weather.
@MsHearthWitch @brennen you can be a Person Who Bikes Places without being a Person Who Always and Only Bikes Places!
Biking when it works for you is fun and good!
