Zebra is a brand of printers too… What a coincidence!

If they put a double chainring on the rear crank, they could connect them together and have a real tandem.
They were in the Netherlands, too! But in the seventies and "expensive" so the lesser gods like me built one from old bike parts (big rear wheel and smaller front wheel), and with a banana seat, sissybar and J-bar as a birthday gift... The 3-gang gear lever was the coolest, but could not be imitated. DIY in my early stage 😉
In the UK, we had the Raleigh Chopper with banana saddle, cowhorn bars, rear wossname, and the all-important in-line nut-mangler gear shift. They were cool. You should see the prices a good condition Chopper goes for now! £1800!!!
Sigh.
Memories of a simpler nicer time.
Those T-bar shifters were IT, The Thing to have.
The rest of the bike was secondary.
SIGH, I'm Old

Yes at the begining and after a few time it just become a bat habit with no enjoyement, as all addictions.
They work all the time and eat when they are hungry, all the time as well. well managed addictions can gives you some satisfactions even at the old age.

Yes, I bet that eating snacks while watching social media is more fun than going outdooors...
We evolved in a situation where you should eat as much as possible when possible, as you never knew how long it would be to the next opportunity.

The secret to long life and prosperity is…naps!
I’ll take one in the early afternoon whenever I can for ideally 20-30 minutes.
I don’t think I’m very American.
I hate fast food and avoid it like the plague.
I cook as much as possible and my wife has learned from me over the years and has become a good cook as well. Oh…and we use butter…in moderation.
I like a cup of coffee and a sweet in the morning as well as in the afternoon around 3:00 (after my nap 😉)
I try to get out of the house and get sunshine and fresh air regularly…it helps me avoid depression. Even if it means I have to stop working on an audio project!
If I don’t exercise on a weekly basis I just don’t feel right…ideally 3 times. I alternate running, swimming, biking and light strength training.
I quit the 9-5 grind many years ago so I could be there for our kids instead of slaving to pay insane money to strangers to raise them.

Attack the youngs is too easy because they are pure derivatives of our lives.
