Do you swap your tires?
06.10.2025 14:01 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Itβs also illegal on the road from a motorcycle standpoint (lack of turn signals, plates, high beams). Those really belong on a dirt track
26.09.2025 13:45 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I ride a motorcycle (small 300lb bike) and bicycles. I have many more hours on my bicycle for fun and transportation, but people assume I took my motorcycle if I say Iβm going to bike somewhere that isnβt a park.
04.09.2025 15:51 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Are people allergic to moving? Thatβs one of the biggest pros of riding any bike.
Many of the helping people start counter could be solved with proper gearing.
Are there other exceptions other than knee problems or similar medical issues?
Why are Americans mostly interested in cheap ones? What can convince people to go with better quality(at least bike shop quality)?
Most of the time someone comes to me for e-bike advice, they donβt want to spend over $1k. $1k is minimum for a decent used bike.

Can we use that $8.4 million to create better alternatives for those drivers?
The income is the friends you make along the way

Itβs worth it tho! Fun hobby if youβre into photography/videography
Cargo bike hauling mulch
First year with a cargo bike, and this might be my biggest haul yet!
Also, shoutout to the local Menards for all of the bike racks even in car dependent suburbia.
Fire light painting with me as a model
Took a light painting photography class at Midwest Photo this weekend!
Another student kindly took this photo with my camera while I modeled.
Cargo bike parked in front of a grocery store loaded with groceries.
Havenβt used a car for local errands since getting this bike 4 months ago.
Bonus is that Iβve felt much stronger hopping on my sport bike for the first time this year.
Situational awareness is probably the best bet. A chill vacation spot, I just need a cafe lock. Downtown at work, I use a bike locker.

You MUST do the same. It takes less than 10 minutes to reach them all. Social media wonβt change things, but calls will help.
Use the site. Make the calls. π
Ahh, nice! Thatβll be awesome

27.02.2025 19:35 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I was riding a COGO bike in downtown Columbus yesterday, and had an Amazon delivery van worker chat with me at a stoplight. She said sheβd trade and that itβd be much easier to deliver on bike.
Maybe one day we can get cargo bikes in downtown Columbus.
People become severed when they hop behind a wheel - spin off show idea

21.11.2024 18:35 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Even if the gear is free, itβs annoying to put it all on every time you run an errand
20.11.2024 23:09 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Better than nothing
20.11.2024 16:51 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Hence the obvious - cars. Iβm assuming you are riding in a bikeable area(rare, I know) like a shared path.
The US has lax e-bike and e-scooter regulation. The knee-jerk reaction is to ban them, which would be bad for everyone. The higher risk they cause damages the reputation of bikes in general
Other than the obvious (cars, road condition, etc), high power e-bikes and scooters can be dangerous for both cyclists and walkers. Even 28mph limited bikes can be dangerous for elderly or congested paths.
