this old bike

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2012.04.04

Despite having poured $400 into maintaining my old bike and outfitting myself with new panniers etc, I've now saved $500 by cycling.

With a total of 360 fares saved, I've now not spent $900 on TTC fares. Another $150 in savings and I'll be able to afford a "cost neutral" upgrade.

(I hope that this isn't some form of Enron accounting....)

Capitalist production, therefore, only develops the techniques and the degree of combination of the social process of production by simultaneously undermining the original sources of all wealth – the soil and the worker.

—Karl Marx
