I'm a PhD student in atmospheric remote sensing in Kiruna, Sápmi (Lapland), Sweden. I first came to Stack Exchange for practical reasons: Tex.SE has been of major help when I wrote my licentiate (midterm) thesis. Since then, I have discovered the joy of many websites. As my network profile will show, I'm interested in travel, outdoor, scientific skepticism, and as I work in academia, also in academia and LaTeX.

Search engine for bicycle rentals I found that site already but it just looks like one particular chain, not a site comparing across all bicycle rental places. |

Is there a website to minimize overall agony for N travelers at once? I disagree with the close votes. This is very much a travel question, no less than the travelling salesman is; it's about minimising travel time and cost considering boundary conditions. For a single participant A->B travel, many websites exist. Asking for methods on how to solve the problem described in the question is travel-related. |

Getting from Denver Amtrak to Fort Collins Considering that Thursday – Friday I'll be in Boulder, having only one day with business in Fort Collins, it looks like the most practical option after all is to head for a hotel in Boulder on Tuesday and travel to and from Fort Collins on Wednesday directly. |

Getting from Denver Amtrak to Fort Collins Are there really no rental car services open on a weekday evening downtown in a city as big as Denver? |

Getting from Denver Amtrak to Fort Collins It would be nice if I could somehow communicate specifically with other Amtrak travellers, to see if anyone getting off at Denver would be going northward; Union Station had 113393 travellers FY12, averaging more than 300 per day, if ~150 get off perhaps someone has transportation northward... |

Is there a taxi service in Bishop, California? I was not planning on doing a loop, but on ending in a different place compared to where I started, then walking to the road (such as between Benton and Bishop) and hitch-hiking (route 168 or 6, I've been told it should work fine in rural California). (As for the off-topic points; I'll be going in May and hoping to rent a PLB, I've already established with someone who knows the region that water from snowmelt won't be a problem in May, and my cell phone won't work in any case; more on outdoor hazards better discussed on The Great Outdoors) |
