I would say the issue here is trying to find something to actually be able to take on buses/the metro.

the cops probably know the dudes at the chop shops and use them as "a source" (which means they do nothing but help each other commit crimes )

This person has literally never been on public transportation in their life and it shows. You have to put up with 10 times the amount of other people's invasive bullshit driving.

every day i must climb into a tiny cage and pilot it on giant scars we've carved into the surface of a once beautiful world, knowing each time that it may be my last as thousands of other tiny cages piloted by angry and distracted prisoners are there with me.

chicken and egg... if sitting on a train makes you mentally break down completely, there's a good chance that's because you've been messed up by the social isolation caused by suburban car culture

Cugel the Clever posted:My biggest question is where the gently caress do these all go? Are there really that many scummy riders/shops/resellers that will buy bikes of dubious origin at the quantity we see being stolen? i bet a lot of them are just sold on craigslist or facebook market or whatever as 'used,' too. it's not like anyone is asking for an original store receipt to prove the provenance of a used bike when they pick it up

We need to flood the country with bikes so that everyone has each cheap/free access to them and there's less incentive to steal them. Or I guess we could offer a sliding-scale rebate on certain e-bikes for rich people. Whatever.

ebike theft is not as huge of a deal here tho regular bike theft still is and I can only surmise that’s because of the dozens of lovely bike share wrecks still laying all over the place

I just joined a public advocacy group here in the Twin Cities that's pushing to have the part of I-94 that goes through Minneapolis and St. Paul turned into a vehicle free greenway Basically I-94 is at the end of it's life, and while they can repave it, the time between when they have to repave gets smaller each time - started at 13-15 years when it was built in the 1960s, now it's seven years.

No joke I used to be part of a cycling club that did some training rides at a large park in the city. This park had a big one-way ring road around the outside a few km long, and on that road there was a dedicated cycling lane about as wide as the car lane on the outside of the circle. It was a super popular place for cyclists and on a weekend morning there's be hundreds of bikes riding around the ring and practically no cars. One morning the club was doing pace-line practice, so we were riding in a bunch but at fairly low speeds so that people could practice the technique. There was a SUV stopped on the road ahead of us indicating to turn off the ring road onto a side street, and the layout of this place means that the car has to turn across the cycling lane to do so. The car was about 100m up the road and was completely stationary with its indicator going as we approached, so we assumed that the car had seen us and was waiting for us to pass before turning, however just as the bunch started to ride past the SUV it suddenly turned into the group resulting in a big crash with one guy getting knocked out and losing some teeth. One guy riding at the back of the group had a video camera recording at the time and captured the whole thing, police and ambulance were called and the video was given to the police. A little while later the police decide to charge the guy who was knocked out and lost some teeth with reckless riding and not the SUV, because the police thought that the cyclists were riding too close together to avoid hitting the car when it turned into us... It went to court and eventually was overturned and the police were forced to pay costs by the judge because of how ludicrous the whole situation was, but yeah wouldn't be the first time I'd have heard of a cyclist getting charge for having the nerve to damage a car by getting run over by it.
