Sigh. If only one could cycle to work without having to worry about getting sweaty or having to change. Maybe we could could use a motor to power the bike. And for hot or cold days, we could put a shell around the bike and install a heater/AC. And we could use 3, maybe even 4 wheels so that people wouldn't be afraid of crashing

That's great. In the US there is a saying in the south "All hat, no cattle" for people who dress like cowboys but have never been on a horse, let alone own cows, but dress like professional rodeo stars.

I laughed when he said his commute time dropped by 20 minutes, and he was now off to take a 20-minute shower.

Know what suffering is? Trying to get through that video.
I assume there's a punch line in there eventually, but I couldn't make it.

The OP video is pretty funny, the animated one kept repeating the same joke for 4 minutes before I got too sick of the computer-generated voices to make it any further.
I'll wait for the book. 3.5 more minutes ain't happening for me.

Don't watch the whole thing, then just skip to the end. I won't spoil it for you. Trust me; it's great.
