No Excuse Zone

How often do you hear people argue that they can’t ride to work because “it would take too long” or “the distance is too far”. Well no more excuses – some folks have measured distances for a healthy person to cycle to the CBD for work within half an hour. This was based on a series of test rides and careful mapping. This is called the No Excuse Zone!

A guy I work with pinned this to our notice board. It sure stirred up the people who live within the zone.

The maps are surprisingly far reaching and provocatively suggest that if a person lives within this zone and works in the CBD, then they should try cycling to work a few days a week and enjoy the benefits
