[Cycling] An insignificant activity (3)
Extracted from official data:
The average person in England in 2022:
- walked 221 miles
- cycled 57 miles.
Maybe no longer an average traveller since retirement, but my estimated
scores for 2022:
(a) walking: 500 miles
(b) cycling: 0 miles
(c) railway: 0 miles
(d) bus: 0 miles
(e) car: 6,000 miles
(f) aeroplane: 20,000 miles
In my younger days, my annual mileage by car could easily be
significantly more than the total of the above (26,500 miles). Fifty
thousand in a single year was not unknown.
Some headcases "think" that a similar level of utility can be gained
from cycling...
