My sister's husband, now............
Bellowed at me a couple months ago because I didn't ask him for a ride to work during the winter, instead of bundling up to ride my bike.
Please.
DM,
I know what you mean about your brother-in-law not getting it that you'd rather bundle up and ride your bike vs. calling for a ride. I have a neighbor who doesn't get it either. It takes me about an hour or so to get from my apartment out to Bay Pines. He keeps reminding me that we have the PSTA and that I should take the bus instead of pedaling. It would take at least twice as long if not longer to take the bus out to Bay Pines.
As I would have to catch the Rt 4 in front of my apartment then go downtown to Williams Park wait for and transfer to the rt 18 bus and go out to Bay Pines. My way I just jump on my bike head up to 9th St. N. and then turn onto 30 Ave. N. ride to the Tyrone Mall area where I hope onto the Pinellas Trial and ride out to Bay Pines.
