    How do you hit the streets, then?

    Running?

    Striding?

    Sauntering?

    Strutting?

    I tend to amble along, harmlessly

    I generally run everywhere screaming 'get out of my fu cking way' It's gives the impression that I am either in bother or very late for something. Either way I get where I want very quickly in general.

    Thinly disguised "I have legs" boast.

    Walk along to the beat of the music I'm listening to. Good thing I don't listen to dubstep....

    If I don't have any music then I dodge the cracks on the pavement.

    I usually send a crier ahead to tell everyone I'm coming. I then appear on a bed hoisted upon the shoulders of four manly men.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,627 ✭✭✭Lawrence1895


    I'm cycling ;)

    Normally a brisk walk, unless I see another cyclist behind me on the pavement I walk slowly randomly moving from one side of the pavement to another.

    i seem to have a long stride, my friends have to almost jog to keep up with me and they always complain but i dont think i walk fast at all, it just feels like a stroll.
    Im not even that tall, only 6' 1" so i dont know why i seem to walk so fast

    I skip along and tell everyone I meet along the way what a fabulous day it is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,184 ✭✭✭3ndahalfof6


    I am, hey Joe what do you know, I hit the street fully prepared.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,749 ✭✭✭tony 2 tone


    I usually hit the streets with a hammer, God damned streets killed my father :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,573 ✭✭✭pragmatic1


    I limp.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 579 ✭✭✭cartell_best


    Usually when i join the mainstream of people moving along I start off walking normally and then when they don't keep pace (i'm supposedly a fast walker), I consider my options. The only thing is? Its gotten just as bad as driving, I'm trying to predict the movement of the people in front of me and a single careless movement of another pedestrian causes to me to lose thought and end up with me bumping into a third party. Then and only then, do I take evasive action and hope I don't have to say "sorry" to a complete and utter stranger, simply because, rules of the footpath were not followed by other pedestrians.

    Yes, but you've got an electric bike.

    So have I.

    We are superior.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,204 ✭✭✭dodderangler


    I tend to walk down the road without a care and couldn't give a flying fcuk who I walk into

    Check out the peter's road dancer on youtube, he's a legend. I wish I could summon that level of positivity on my way to work (generally going into work ....I trudge)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    I'm actually a very quick walker, not quite Olympic funny walk standard but usually set a good brisk pace!

    I change my walk every ten steps or so, that's the only way to stop the Cherokee tracking you.
