I think these guys are just conning their wives. It's not so much about the lack of carbon footprint, etc. It's an excuse to get out of the house and get some exercise.

Though the guy pedaling the refrigerator around is pretty dang impressive.

Hey...don't let facts and reason get in the way of another tax enslavement scheme by our government. Pay your carbon tax like a good citizen should! After all, it's the ecologically sound thing to do.

Wow. Next thing you know they will have oxcarts bringing produce into Seattle.

And "Carbon free" - umm, the tires and metal on your stupid bike? Did that just materialize out of bong hits and hipster love?

Hah, I figured out their sneaky scheme! Vendors truck their cookies, coffee, etc. to Freewheel's office on Capitol Hill. Then the bike-wagons deliver the stuff to several nearby locations, all of which are downhill!

I'm guessing that "refrigerator" is made of styrofoam.

I eliminated my carbon footprint when I stopped wearing carbon shoes.
