"Maybe you wobble a lot when riding your bike
???"
If you drive correctly then a mile is a mile.
If you wobble all over the bloody road then your going to travel further.
You must be one of those that wobbles all across the road so each journey covers more distance. |

Best move to the *USA where achievement is applauded.
The UK is more self deprecating.

If you're riding a bike with deraillieur gears (which is anything 5 speed and upwards generally, if you back pedal too much you can jam the chain in the cage (the bit with the two idler wheels) and it can be a right bugger getting it out again. Learned through bitter experience with that one, and it cost me a new chain too as it bent one of the links...

"My car probably does 5,000 miles a year but cycling to work my bike does 7,800 miles a year! "
That's cos on your bike you probably take a more scenic route like I used to when I used to cycle to and from work. Much nicer than sitting in the car too...

One of the links in the chain (ie. the two little plates which form the link) Force that into the cage by pedalling backwards at speed and you can cause some rather expensive damage....
