After three days of family and friends Mags and I were ready for our annual Christmas Day tandem bike ride. Finally a chance to burn through all of those holiday goodies. This year’s destination was the International Peace Garden right here in SLC.
Mags and I weren’t the only ones with bicycles on our minds this Christmas. Somebody over at Velorution.biz decided to fabricate a Christmas Message by Her Majesty, The Queen. Bloggers everywhere are falling for it.
This is what the Queen allegedly said:
…will our blessed Kingdom be hotter or is it facing an Ice Age, as the North Atlantic oscillator switches direction? We don’t know and both scenarios are plausible. What we can do is become more self-reliant. It’s up to us restructure our lives in a way that we can survive strongly any of the shocks that will hit our country.
The bicycle can transport you everywhere, free from dependence from petrol, rails, pilots, etc. This is probably why so many people have started riding bicycles in London.
You can read the Queen’s real Christmas Message here.
No matter who really said it, the message rings true. But are there really that many people riding bicycles in London?
