Selling carbon offset
I had a daft idea this morning. Since I’m doing all this cycling, would someone like to pay me for it - to ease their conscience for driving around in, say, a huge 4×4. So I’ve put it up on Ebay, to try to put a figure on what people think it’s worth.













What a fabulous idea!
Love it! I may have to join you…
Let’s see… 1000 miles cycling vs. 400 miles driving @ 20mpg… that’s at least 600 miles driving available. Add to that, all the miles I’ll put on my bike for the remainder of the year. Add to that, we’ve converted to a 60mpg car… hmmm….
That being said, you’ve got a much better product than me since you’re guaranteeing that your miles are commuter miles!
