Yeah, nearest store to me is like 30 min walk each way. Nearest Costco is about the same time in the car as the grocery store (5-10 min).

That's a 5 minute bicycle ride then?

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Something like that, yeah. Costco is more like 10 min, and I've done runs to both on my bike.

My Costco is physically less than mile away but you have to cross two major strodes and a four lane bridge thats only for car travel. There's an alternative route but I have to backtrack 2 miles to get to the pedestrians safe bridge then the two miles to get to Costco from the ped bridge. Why can't the four lane strode have a partial bike lane?? It would save me hours of commute and I live in pretty bikable city. I'm doing Critical Mass for the second time this Friday, I highly recommend it, its a lot of fun
