Tough Truth
Once more with the gasoline math.
This time its not hypothetical, its personal.
I took a sub job at Pleasant Valley High School yesterday, which, according to Google Maps, is 3.4 miles from my house, a 10 minute drive mostly on Cohasset and East Avenue at less than 35 mph.
Round-trip is 6.8 miles.
At 24 mpg, I would burn 0.28 gallons of gas getting there and back.
At $3.80/gallon, it would cost me $1.07 to travel just under 7 miles.
Did I mention that it is a pleasant 20 minute bike ride along Lindo Channel to get from my house to PV?
