also whoever said Boston isn't a bikeable city is a moron. Boston is probably one of the most bikeable major metros because of how dense the city is built. you can be end to end in 45 minutes on a bike. poo poo I live in east Boston, on the Atlantic Ocean and I can still probably get two towns out of Boston in any direction in an hour

Hell, the whole eastern seaboard down to North Carolina is heaven compared to Texas, which is where I did most of my rides for years.

https://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/2016/04/25/bike-bus-offers-ride-that-will-leave-you-spinning/PGDCh4rvPG8Mz81Ve1u7FK/story.html boston is the most bikeable city because there's even buses that put the bikes as stationary exercise equipment inside the vehicle.

Bloody posted:boston sucks to cycle in because the road conditions are atrocious and traffic volume is absolutely insane dont be a wuss. cycling means you don't have to deal with traffic and if you keep getting flats get better tires. I get what you mean but it's just a learning curve. if you can handle Boston/NYC streets on the daily you can basically bike any other city just off that core skillset source: I bike Boston/Camberville as a job

I totally get what you're saying though. once you bike in traffic regularly it kind of goes away. I mean you're always hyper vigilant but it's not nearly as stressful. you still have the same random chance of death but you at least learn better ways of anticipating death uh I deliver farmshare/csa goods via bike and on some days I do recycling pickup for the city of Cambridge via bike. this is my whip pre trash that bike weighs 400lbs by itself. my high score is 500lbs of recycling on it according to the scale at the recycling center. let me tell you you haven't lived until you've tried to take that loving tank on a 40mph rd.

well yeah infrastructure comes from rich white people who have time to lobby for it. working class people don't have time to push for it but they're actually impacted far more by safety measures
