READ THIS: How Amsterdam became the bicycle capital of the world. In the 1960s, Dutch cities saw cars as the transport of the future. It took the intolerable toll of child traffic deaths —and fierce activism— to turn #Amsterdam into the urban biking nirvana of today. It took vision and leadership.

I spend my week crossing london on a bike and increasingly that means cycling alongside Wayve/Waymo robotaxis. it’s uncomfortable. they give you so much space, don’t do a close pass while accelerating as lights go red. So unnerving if you cycle on assumption everyone’s mental and wants to kill you.

Pro Tip: should you need to disconnect your quick link without the aid of pliers, because, say, you accidentally routed your chain incorrectly you can push the link against your big chainring assuming you have something narrow to push with like this pocket knife I happen to carry in my saddle bag
My chain has been given some slack to allow the quick link to rest perpendicularly against my big chainring. I’m holding the backside of my closed pocket knife blade against the other end of the quick link. If you put enough force on it it will definitely open the quick link.

Some people will say this REI ad was AI generated. I choose to believe that they have finally embraced the power of “reach around bars,” and acknowledged the bourgeois redundancy of having two pedals.

The Dutch mobility system isn't just built around cycling. It's built around bike-train intermodality: cycling solves the train's convenience problem and the train solves cycling's range problem. Together, they offer an attractive alternative to driving on a mass scale. WATCH: youtu.be/jq93DgLvmFc
