I agree about 15 minutes cities being a pleasant proposition. I live in quite an average town in Derbyshire and I had to collect a small parcel from Argos, yesterday. I decided to go out on my bike and collect the parcel from 2 miles away on the route back in from my bike ride. I own a car and could have used that. The amount of traffic and general busyness of vehicles in my ordinary town makes it much more unpleasant when you’re trying to use ‘green’ methods of transport.
If a quarter of the traffic was eradicated from my town it would be great. I’ve got two gyms I can think of that are about 20 minutes walk away and all the amenities I need. Sounds okay to me. Get some of the fatties that are driving but could walk out on their legs, I say.
