Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:I only go to sporting venues with subway stations next door The good thing about the ScotiaBank Arena (where the Leafs and Raptors play) is that it's right next to Union Station, where the subways and GO trains (faster trains that service the 'Golden Horseshoe' region outside the GTA) depart. Even if you're downtown, unless you're right by the arena or in an actual sportsbar, it's pretty easy to avoid loudmouth neanderthal hockey CHUDs because most of them just get on the train and go back to Mississauga or Whitby.

ICE or electric cars? because lol if they broke Tesla's monopoly on the "electric car that loves catching fire for no reason" market. EDIT: I looked it up and it's the tow hitches catching fire, which I've never even heard of before https://www.npr.org/2023/03/23/1165726222/hyundai-kia-recall-fire-risk-park-outside

withak posted:How many airports can you reasonably cycle away from without dying? DCA is good for that, there's a trail that takes you the (very short) distance up to the city by bike. i think there's even a bikeshare station at or near the airport now, so you could even just arrive and grab one there and be off, easy peasy

The silence and lack of maintenance are just so nice. I have the exact same one and I use it for my daily commute. I love hearing nothing but the gentle sounds of the wheels rolling on the road when riding it. Best buying decision I've ever made.

gradenko_2000 posted:I bought a new bike to replace my stolen one. It's a Giant Escape - it's so much lighter than my old one, feels like it flies at the slightest provocation. It's very nice, and the 2-by gearing means I have both easier climbs and faster high-gears either way My partner has a giant escape. She absolutely loves it. I put on some neon blue grips that match the color accents and it's quite the looker. Here's hoping you don't get it stolen. I highly recommend registering it with 529 or whatever the bike registry is in your area. I know blah blah ACAB but you'd be surprised how many bikes get recovered and returned if they are registered.

My daily driver. A couple of goons in the bike threads helped my buy it from Craigslist 12 years ago. And then when I shared it at my current job, one guy piped up and said, "I think I sold you that bike..." and it really was him.
