Default Harvard Study

A recent study conducted by Harvard University concluded that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study by the AMA concluded that the average American consumes about 22 Gallons of alcohol a year.

That means the average American gets about 41 miles to the gallon.

Kind of makes you proud to be an American.

Have a great 4th of July.

Because we can reduce anything to numbers?

And who says we're not efficient?

Just imagine if we worked all our collective riding miles into that! Hmm...we'd have to work our alcohol numbers into it too though, but it'd still be pretty good!

I suppose that those of us that drink more than the average American are less efficient. I guess it's time to up my walking mileage so I can do my part to keep American's "Green."
