I talked to the owner of the bike shop where I got my new road bike and I asked him if they've seen an increase in bike sales since gas has really started to jump. He said they've seen zero increase...
You don't want to know how much it is here in NZ! US$1.46 a litre! Thats about 20c a litre more expensive than you got it! DAMN LKVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PACIFIC!
holy crap. was that price for regular? if so, you are officially higher than northern california, which has been the highest in the country lately. our regular is around 4.10ish. premium is higher, and diesel is upwards of 4,75. insane. i'm glad i live within biking distance of work.
A US gallon (about 4 litres) costs about $8.50 in Ireland at the moment. - €1.35/litre at $1.58 to the euro. You guys in the US have got to give up the humungo trucks and start driving regular cars like the rest of the world. Some day soon you'll wake up and realise that you're the only ones still riding dinosaurs while the rest of us are hovering to work with our jet packs, silver suits and pills for breakfast.
I just tried to buy it but the shipping to Europe is $37.50....cost of gas I suppose - I can't give the post office that money on the principle of the whole thing!!
So people...not in the US say we are "belly achin'" about the price of gas? Driving dinosaurs? I surely don't drive a hummer, a 4 cylinder, and it cost me oodles to fill up my tank. Keep in mind I used my lawn mower gas to drive my 9 year old to school the other morning. Give us some years, and I'm sure our "little" towns will be just as close together so we can ride our bikes everyday to our kids' school, and then to work. I'm buying this t-shirt. Well done fella's! I read your article in INC. magazine. You guys got a good thing going.
congrats on your PRINT
