Why you should bike/cycle

[ají]

That's just a motto,  N + ! is a law

hold on, what is this N+! law?

hold on, what is this N+! law?

Actually, that should be written as "n+1".

The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.

"n" is the number of bikes currently owned. "n+1" means the correct number of bikes is always the number you own...plus the next one. Altogether, this is a wonderful way to justify adding yet another bike to the stable. After all, it is not just a formula, it is a Law. 

Best,

I have seen "the perfect number" phrased as S-1, S being the number at which your spouse leaves you...'course, it's kinda hard to know what the value of S may be beforehand, although the after-the-fact calculation is usually spot-on.

No worries, e-man!

A lot of my posts are made on my phone's keyboard with numb fingers, sometimes roadside and occasionally in very poor weather. When you see I've edited my posts, it is usually after I've gone back and looked in horror   at the typos I've made --  -- and must correct! 

All's good. 

All the best,

Dan.

i agree entirely. n+1 is a law. i want a fliz bike.
S-1 is interesting too. for owners of "classic" cars, the "s" value is always very low.
