Denmark’s energy minister called on citizens to reduce their energy use amid the ongoing Middle East conflict.
Oil prices jumped to over $100 a barrel on Thursday, raising fears of rising inflation.
“If it is not strictly necessary to drive the car, then don’t do it,” the minister stressed to Danish citizens.
That’s great if you can managed not to get blended to death by the 10k lb. monster trucks you’re forced to share the road with.
Almost all of the ride is on a trail on the way to work. On the way back, I just go through residential streets that are pretty much empty by the time I go home (where its too dark to take the trail). Moved to where I do because of how convenient it is for commuting. Used to do the ride when I lived further away and had to ride on some busier roads and the perpetual construction on one of the roads made a stretch one-lane that shouldn’t be.
