Sure, just throw tires spikes on the road. Let’s have people buy more tires, and trash the (what used to be good) tires into a landfill. Yeah that’ll show them drivers
Now I’m imagining the city hiring armored trucks with spike-plows and police escort, clearing spikes from the most important lanes after car-haters have scattered huge quantities everywhere.
Nice. I can understand. On a crowded bus I’ve tried handles and it takes half my energy not to accidentally bump the person next to me. But also easier to check my phone while riding with less strain.
Dang, that sucks. Is it the rubber type or a sort of rope with a rigid plastic ring? I could see either breaking from poor maintenance but in different ways.
I think it’s important to point out that the video states that vans contribute to a big chunk of vehicle CO2 emissions. What they didn’t really care to touch on is the fact that probably less than 1/3 of those vehicles are being used for actual package delivery
Weird that the longer bars are worse. It’s a cognitive flip, even if what it may represent (carbon footprint, maybe? Fossil fuel expenditure?) is growing with the lower tiers. Oh, and whoever made the poster missed the fantastic opportunity to use Heil! instead of hell.
The design of the bars is borrowed from the European energy efficiency labels for electronics. On those labels, longer bars mean higher energy consumption. So it’s probably meant to reptesent either fuel use or general environmental impact here.
Mate you ever rowed a boat? That shit is hard work, it goes below the bike for sure
Of course, the pedalo manages to combine the worst of both worlds and seems to exist solely as a way to work your quads out without looking like you're doing a gym session
If you have good balance, I think paddle boards are more efficient than a kayak, assuming your not carrying a load. You can put your whole body into the stroke. Kayaking destroys my shoulders
I'm definitely biased here since I spent years kayaking and have only gone paddleboarding twice, and I also definitely don't want to just be all "lol skill issue", but I think this might be an issue with your (kayak) paddling technique. You should be using your whole torso rather than your arms and shoulders
Anecdotal information from my observations only: I have two paddle boards, and a tandem kayak. When we go out, the person(s) in the kayak are always able to go faster with less effort - even if they are solo. Rowboats with oar locks are generally faster still, and none of us can even hope to keep up with one of those Hobie kayaks with the pedal driven mid drive.
I agree in perfect conditions, but paddleboards are completely impractical as transport. I once got blown out to sea by unexpected high winds while on a paddleboard and I was lucky there was a boat going past to pick me up. Kayaks on the other hand can handle rough seas and carry many days of food.
This is the second article I’ve read about someone getting trapped in a Tesla. It’s a shame that a lot of people will opt to blame the user when this is obviously a stupid design decision by Tesla.
The woman agreed to operate a 2000lbs+ machine w/o doing her due diligence. I’m sure the paperwork she signed stated that she was capable of operating such a machine, which means she lied. Hertz may be a crappy company, but this woman is irresponsible.
