urban rangering on bike

Would biking qualify as Urban rangering? I bike to work some days and walk other days. In the winter, it feels colder, but my time spent in the cold is cut by close to 2/3. I don't get as much time in exercising by walking, but I then use the time to work out at home.

Should count, you're getting there under your own power. I used to live 1/2 a mile from my work, it took me 5 minutes door to door. If I wasn't in a hurry and the weather was nice I'd add an extra ten minutes or so to get a good energy boost. Not practical now, I'd have to go thru heavy traffic and a fairly bad neighborhood.

Sure, call it "Biker Scout."

Meets all the urban ranger criteria of (actually) useful movements.

I like the imagery of the biker scout and "Strider."

"Mounted Ranger"

The bike is your horse.
