Spen, nobody else seems to mind.

Do you commute by grumpiness and pedantry?

no grumpiness involved- i was thinking how fantastic it would be to commute to work down a huge water slide

I want one of those air tube things....like on Futurama - you don't have the hassle of drying off then!!!! But all the fun of a slide - Jetsons style.

Spen666 is not grumpy he is just diligent... and anyone who wants to commute by waterslide gets my vote for PM.....

In fact - scrap the water wings - Will pay beer/wine for picture of 30 year old + in water park in a full life jacket stolen from an aircraft....or even better, both water wings and life jacket + bicycle.....

Damn, have to be over 30 to get that beer/wine. I'll have to do it after November.
Bets along the lines of "bet you won't do this as you will look dumb..." tend to get a big grin for me as I reach for the camera to give to someone.

You won't look dumb! Just different....and exciting, women (or men) will throw themselves at you....along with stones and old bits of metal.

I get plenty of people throwing themselves at me, usually they are in cars and I'm on the bike but they throw themselves at me, with the car included for free!

I was sat looking at the serpentine at lunch today designing a water-bike in my head... paddle wheels and floats to the side... brilliant! River commute anyone?

Your livin' the dream....!

Can I swap the life jacket for corset and suspenders? There are no airports near me and I can source the other stuff much more easily...

When entering a water park and heading for the "fun" slides, the ones where you have to sit in an inflatable ring that takes 2 people, find yourself a fat person for the all important rear position in the inflatable - the increase in acceleration, cornering geometry (sidewall height) and splash factor are sigificantly better than using lightweight skinnies.....as proved by my fat mate!

I am 33......And I enjoy a good water slide as much as a 3 year old. Thats good science that is...

Do you commute by water slide?


Just wondering why this is in commute
