This time of year we eat a tonne of corn on the cob, and our local grower is so close to home that I got the idea to bike ride to corn! I put on a corn carrying backpack, made sure I had my wallet, and set off to get us some farmer corn.
Distance traveled on bike to get corn: 4.5 KM (each way)
Number of corn purchased: 6 (we can't eat a full dozen before it goes off)
Cost of 6 corn: $3
Weight of backpack full of corn (as measured on a mostly inaccurate bathroom scale): 8 lbs
Amount of transit time it took on my bike: 40 minutes
Amount of time it would take in the car: 8 minutes
Number of KM not put on car: 9 KM
Number of degrees it was outside: 27°C
Number of degrees it felt like carrying corn on my back: a million°C
Number of corn eaten by me: 2
