The lines are already drawn. We are a species that survives due to genetic diversity. Different responses at different times to threats ensure our survival or demise.

A lot of our responses are already hard wired into our genes. The rest is conditioning. The serious  science is heavy going. Some scientists concentrate 100% on science. A few take a 2 minute break and enjoy some light humour. The latter especially if they take climate change as fact and cycling as part of the solution.

Your sleeping. An incessant tap on your shoulder draws you from your slumber. Dickens ghost of Xmas to come takes you firmly by the hand. All the way to 2050.Note he doubles as scientist and cyclist.

You scan the selection of blueprints. It’s on a quantum computer. In the basement a 3D printer starts to churn. Its rolling out a Xmas present. A bicycle of your design. Together with puncture proof tyres and 6 kg frame. Outside the roads are made of super tarmac. Like Lino with minimal rolling resistance. So much faster. The advances in 2050 sports medicine are amazing.

The Mars annual mountain bike Annual Tour 2050 championship is on. Forget Sports Tourism. The Mars surface was designed for one thing. Humans to race bikes.

Freezing temperatures, No oxygen.All that methane?. Science is so beautiful. Your helmet is designed to be symbiotic. It incorporates methane gobbling bacteria that love a methane diet. They spew out carbon dioxide and water.Plants use this to produce oxygen .We have created huge hoards of these helpful bugs underneath the Martian surface. Energy and respiration and cleaning the sprockets on the bikes powering hotels. Bacteria step up the wattage to make Mars habitable.

Newton discovered Gravity. In 2050 we finally understood Gravitons. Just as the transition from Wilbur and Wright to the 747 took 100 years. So to for spaceflight.

A drone gently drops your cycling jersey down the house chute. It regulates temperature even when wet.
You pay by just one worldwide Cryptocurrency. This is finally safe. It’s all totally Government controlled. Negative interest rates mean banks pay you to borrow. However, the most precious commodity is now available with the ubiquitous robots and homeworking. Time you have time to cycle. More importantly you now have time to read those science research papers.

Where does the methane come from? 

How is this politics
