I like travelling by bike, but i am not the biggest fan of doing roundtrips, i much prefer moving further and further away. So on longer trips i will end up way far from home, and since travelling by train across Europe, can be a real ordeal (especially with a bike), i sometimes take a plane back home. I guess busses would be an option too from some locations, i personally absolutely hate travelling by bus though. Weak excuse i know.
I am able to rationalize to myself that it is ok to take that flight, i spent now weeks doing low impact travel and can end it with a boom and still probably had less impact then with my regular life at home (i have not really done the calculation tbh). Of course, if it is reasonably easy to get home by train i will definitely prefer that, and i absolutely don’t always end up taking a plane.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you ever take a flight?
I agree with the everyday life behaviour being the most impactful.
Renting is not an option, certainly not an escooter, haha. I mean i can disassemmble my bike to take it on most trains, but it is still a big hassle to lug it around, together with my other baggage, changing trains etc, and still train connections can be far from optimal
