Happy 82nd b’day, Mick Jagger — who left the London School of Economics to pursue music.
“The Rolling Stones were just beginning,” he said. “I thought, ‘Why not give it a go for a year?’ .. I wasn’t trying to be a rock star — I just thought, ‘This looks like more fun than working for Shell Oil.’”

I think people have yet to wake up to just how amazing e-bikes are. I commute about 20 miles a day, using about 10 cents of electricity. (Mostly on safe trails.)
Every time I ride my brain is ecstatic. I get a workout, but don’t need to shower when I get to work.
