It cracks me up to see bike companies adding wireless electronic shit to bikes, like, shifting and turn signals. Those bikes will die while my 2008 trek hybrid keeps rolling.
As someone who always hated to get stuck behind a bike while driving, I like bike lanes because it means the bikes never get in my way.
I’m opposed to a vehicle that maxes out at 20mph riding in a lane that’s 35mph or above. For safety reasons as well as the inconvenience. I always felt nervous passing bikes on the road, and often the cyclist would look at me like I’m an asshole for it, but ain’t no way I’m going all the way to where I’m going doing half the speed limit, and it’s selfish for someone to think I should just because they chose to take a slower vehicle.
Bike lanes solve this problem. Bikes and cars go different speeds, and each has their own lane so they don’t get in each other’s ways and there are no close calls.
I don’t understand why car people are opposed to bike lanes.
More reasons to own a bike, the government can’t do shit!

The most advanced electronics on my light with 3 different modes that switch when you press the button.
What if car industry sponsored government doesn’t allow bike lanes?
I wasn’t asking for permission.
You don’t need bike lanes to ride!
You need bike lanes to encourage more people to ride
Not many people are willing to take a lane
Not yet.
Not ever!

That’s the magic, I then bike off road.
They will
@Korhaka @RockBottom Keep your old bikes in good working order, they’ll probably start requiring tracking devices on new ones soon.
Should be easy enough to remove for regular bikes, ebikes might be a little more annoying.
In time of crisis bikes are THE best transportation mode.
Yeah, canoe or kayak are also good choices. They are basically the bikes of the sea.
Don’t take a canoe or kayak out into blue water. They are really only useful in brown water.
Is there really much need to go more than a few miles from shore though?
