I don’t believe Jane Goodall ever ate with gorillas, leaves or not. I believe she studied Chimps. None of which has anything to do with winter cycling or climbing a mountain with or by bicycle. But if you see a connection I will have to say it has to be like ILTB has said before, just add LCF to any statement and it is in the spirit of the forum.
I thought it was your sarcastic post 39 that really took the thread off track. Machka introduced the barrier that the hill poses to commuting in Hobart and tandempower was pointing out that in a car-free world, cities would evolve differently and each side of the hill would be a more self-contained community. Again, relevant to LCF, and if it was off topic for a winter commuting discussion, it wasn't because the OP took it there.
