BECAUSE I DO NOT OWN A CAR AND I HAVE A JOB TO GET TO

This is what we mean by carbrain

The @UCI_cycling recently lost a court case in Brussels.

The @UCI_cycling admitted they had zero evidence which showed trans women on GAHT have an advantage over c1s women. Btw @BritishCycling relied on the same exact research as the UCI when they banned UK trans women.

did I tell you about the time last week when I shouted at a motorist to get her attention so she wouldn’t broadside me and then she followed me into the shopping center parking lot screaming “asshole” at me?

motorists neither know nor care how dangerous they are to people not similarly armored

There are far too many cyclists who think that if they're just really good boys and girls on their bike that drivers won't kill them. And that is because they are all victims of an abusive system of car dependency.

Older folks: Why don't kids go outside anymore? The Outside they Built.

Fuck NBC. Yet another capitulation to hate and bigotry by complicit media and corps

This but it's when someone leans out their car window and calls me a bitch for riding my bike like "Awwwwww thanks! 🥰"

So much for ever racing at Unbound...

Remember: Alex Pretti was a cyclist.

This is simply the appropriate reaction to a gigantic SUV bring driven recklessly.

Make the infrastructure available and people will use it, just like we already do with cars

N.J. e-bike bill could shift injury costs to auto insurance customers Customers could be financially responsible for injuries to uninsured electric bike riders.

New Jersey's statehouse bill to require insurance for all e-bikes is quite clearly written to benefit personal injury attorneys like NJ state Senate President Nicolas Scutari. www.nj.com/news/2026/01...

I understand the sacrifice and longing that goes into training for and qualifying at sports.

I also understand the money involved.

If foreign nations want to help, maybe they should boycott the Olympics and World Cup, stating issues with the current, deadly police state we live in

That would help

So odd that kids these days don’t play outside anymore

Congestion pricing is a heckuva street safety strategy

We Still Don’t Know if Robotaxis Are Safer Than Human Drivers And even if self-driving technology proves to be less dangerous, there are many better ways to improve traffic safety and prevent fatal crashes.

AVs claim they are safer than human drivers (not yet true) but street design, speed limiters, regulating large vehicles, and automated enforcement are far simpler technologies that have been proven to work and should not be left out of the conversation.

so much of the bike infrastructure debate is shaped by the presupposition that people who drive cars need their cars, whereas people who ride bikes don’t really need them

Drivers are never asked to justify their infrastructure, but bicyclists (and pedestrians) are constantly forced to defend why their infrastructure is "necessary"

Pedestrian fatalities reach 17-year-high. This trend could be why Fifty-one pedestrians had been killed on the state’s roads this year as of Saturday – the most in any calendar year since 2008.

SUVs and big Utes "are 44 per cent more likely to kill an adult pedestrian or cyclist in a crash compared with a sedan, and 82 per cent more likely to kill a child" www.theage.com.au/national/vic...

results not accidents

Should've called this guy instead

motorists regard other motorists’ aggressive behavior as obnoxious. as a cyclist i regard it as a direct threat to my life, because all too often it is

Hurry mode is also super problematic because it just reinforces the idea that driving faster and more aggressively is acceptable if you want to save time, the safety of everyone else around you be damned

"We need regulation of e-bikes!!!" people scream as SUVs and trucks get larger and deadlier and people speed and drive distracted with impunity.

I'm happy to talk about e-bike regulation as long as folks agree that the *most urgent* problem is cars.
