he gets tired sometimes ok
Wants to save money on food ok.
Isn’t gas more expensive?
In a lot of Flash canon, his metabolism is/was insane. That might have been before the Speedforce took root as the extradimensional power source.
my bro ain’t aging very gracefully
Lord no.
Maybe I’m behind the curve. I sold my car to scrap a while ago and haven’t been able to get another one.
By the way off topic but it sucks so much to not have a car in America. I thought it was like that in general but I started watching NotJustBikes and holy fuck why can’t it be like that here.
What you need is price per calorie, Gas is way cheaper than food, per calorie.
Too bad we can’t eat gas…
It’s a liquid you’d have to drink it

Not being an expert on the lore, I’d be willing to bet it exists solely for merchandising
Dude probably just gets tired of running everywhere.
He can run around the world in a second, but the catch is he has to run around the world.
And if he’s able to react and avoid running into things, it means he’s experiencing more time, so that 2 seconds might feel more like the normal amount of time it would take to run that far.
And hopefully his reaction time increases with his speed, otherwise every 2 seconds would seem like they are long enough to run around the world in.
I had a Batman action figure with a bright prison orange suit. The least stealthy suit possible. But I was 8 and thought it looked cool and begged my mom for it.
If Batman didn’t want to be seen he wouldn’t dress up as a bat.
In what universe do billionaires end up in prison? Any tips?
Maybe they should start a club.
For picking up chicks. Dude may be the fastest man alive but no lady gonna give him the time of day unless he got a sweet ass ride.
Sweet Ass-Ride
They also ain’t calling him back because of how fast he is.
The man can vibrate every part of his body, just saying.
Yeah, vibrate through molecules. Doubt they have fun with that.
He doesn’t need a motorbike for that.
I imagine that his perception of time is also affected when he uses his super speed. Yes, he can run from one side of the continent to the other and back in a fraction of a second. But from his perspective, he just ran nonstop for an entire month.
Subjectively, a stop light or stop sign must feel like an eternity for this guy. Or conversations, for that matter.
There is a storyline about Quicksilver constantly being frustrated because of how slow everything and everyone is.
This is just what having ADHD is like
It’s canon that he can alter the speed at which information is processed / how he perceives the flow of time / events.
But does that alter his ability to do things at speed? If he does all the housework in s second, can he make it feel like a second, or does the fact that he has to pay attention to what he’s doing mean that subjectively it takes just as long as doing it at normal speed?
I think of it being like how a pro golfer does like a dozen things in the split second it takes them to swing a gold club, and they all have to be perfectly coordinated, but they really don’t think of each and every little movement in sequence as it happens.
That’s muscle memory, which is different because it doesn’t require reacting to different things during the process like cleaning a house would.
I never thought about that. I like it!
He also bought a van once, but that was when he was single and it was for uh… other stuff.
Beats the shit outta walkin’.
Didn’t one of the variations of Flash burn calories when he used his powers. The dude was always eating.
Most versions of The Flash do that at first, then the writers forget.
Doesn’t Flash just wanna cruise sometimes? Also, it’s probably great after workouts
I always imagined him riding this for a race, but fully Fred Flintstoneing it when no one is looking.
He enjoys the sensation of driving,
It’s not a bike, it’s a velocipede.
Flash is literally a good sport about his super speed and will not go too fast to make things unfair unless he has to
I thought that was a speedy toilet so he didn’t have to shit at mach 5 and blow out his o-ring
It’s powered by tachyons so it’s fast too
