Yeessssssss, drivists.... PLEASE STAY OUT OF DOWNTOWN PITTSBURGH. The Secret Route is parking your dumb car in one of the many parking garages and walking or taking transit.

Hey @pogohbikes.bsky.social before you expand to the suburbs, you need to put at least one station in the poor part of the Northside. I bike and live on Spring Hill. If my bike breaks down the nearest bike kiosk is literally at my work on Federal St. Pogoh is useless for me.
Big red circle on map denotes the lack of bike share stations in the poor part of Pittsburgh's Northside neighborhood. Bike share wants to expand to the suburbs but hasn't addressed the inequality of bike share within Pittsburgh city limits.

I do more than complain about carcentric culture and dirtbag drivists. I play clarinet in a Turkish folk music ensemble. If you are from DaBurgh #Pittsburgh come see me play at Avva in Aspinwall. Call 412-206-7878 for reservations.

Bought an N+1 bike. 😂 I have a Schwinn acoustic cruiser in my cellar, an EBC cruiser (RIP bankruptcy) getting repaired, & now I own a used Velotric Discovery 1. I hate this color & this design. I love my EBC so much. But I need to preserve my pretty EBC bike & commute on this in winter. #bikesky

BAHAHAHAHAH the recommended route by Ride With GPS is to take Rialto St to the 31st St Bridge! 🤣🤣🤣 For those who don't know, it is one of the Dirty Dozen Race streets, the 13 steepest streets in DaBurgh. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Perhaps it's data is based on all the riders from the race 2 weeks ago. 🤣🤣🤣

This right here. This is why I can't get protected bike infrastructure thru some of Pittsburgh's hottest neighborhoods. I just want to survive a ride from 16th St to 54th St and back again. If anyone here works at Allegheny Wine Mixer let them know I would be there every night.

2/I live 2 minutes from a bus stop on a route that takes me to the parking lot of the store. Bus ride is 15 minutes. But the frequency is 40 min/hour for bus to show. 😑 So glad I am single & have an ebike. If only the damn store would stay open past 8pm. And wouldn't block the bike rack w carts.

Now do cars. This is just a small portion of the street I live on in Pittsburgh. No sidewalk available for any pedestrian. Drivists speed up and downhill bc there is nothing in the parking lane to slow them down. City refuses to enforce the sidewalk parking ban.

I don't understand your shorthand(?) for other street names. The only street goes the entire way thru the #stripdistrict is Penn. It also has most of the businesses to patronize. Mulberry and Spruce are alleys that quit existing every few blocks. Railroad has no businesses and dangerous tracks.

The Giant Eagle on Cedar Ave in Pittsburgh (Northside) is the worst grocery store in the USA. I guess that was 2024 stats. We are now 6th worst. But most local Pittsburghers think the Southside Giant Eagle is the worst. Clearly, they have not shopped at my Northside location. 😂😂

I was supposed to go to the "worst grocery store in the USA" But I got distracted by the beautiful weather and decided to go for a nice ride to the 2nd worst grocery store in the USA. It sells butternut squash ravioli and garlic naan. My store doesn't. 😡

Here's my mOtOrCyCLe, sealion. Vroom vroom. I love throttling my heavy ebike from a complete stop in order to not d1e from an impatient entitled drivist. I can do this literally FOREVER with you. Love my throttle. Hope I can fly by you in real life at 15mph using my thumb throttle. 💋😂
My 55 pound red ebike that some idiots think is a motorcycle because I use a thumb throttle to get moving from a complete stop. I am so tired of anti throttle dipshits who know full well that throttles are necessary to keep up with entitled shitty drivists who will try to murder me at a red light or a stop sign.

Ugh. Mixed use paths. I live on Pgh Northside and like to go up river to Millvale to a bar I like, 1.7 miles from my house. But due to carcentrism and Pgh hills, I can only realistically use the mixed path that runs along the Allegheny. No damn way that I am taking route 28. 😂
Topography map from Google maps showing the safest route to Millvale from the Northside is the mixed use trail along the Allegheny river.

So basically you condone impatient drivists murdering me because I can't get my 55# ebike moving fast enough from a standstill. I will keep riding my mOtOrCyCLe in the bike lanes, on trails, and on streets. That way I can piss off throttle-shamers and all the drivists at the same time!

Today I learned that my ebike is really a motorcycle. 🤣 Look out 279N, I'm taking the highway home. I'm sure all the drivists will enjoy trying to murd3r me. Thumb throttle ≠ motorcycle My bike is heavy. I want to get moving from a stop quickly so drivists don't try to k1ll me in their impatience.

My red ebike with a dangerous THUMB THROTTLE that makes drivists cry. But taking too long to get this 55# ebike moving from a complete stop would make drivists apoplectic and they would probably run me over when the light changed. Apparently this is a picture of a motorcycle. 🙄

Protected bike infrastructure on Penn Ave now! Stop letting drivists dictate my safety where I shop. Drivists can go back to the suburbs. #IBIKEIVOTE #EXTENDPENN #rightsizepennave
A beautiful ebike with a throttle is parked outside of the Smallman St Deli in the Strip District Pittsburgh that should have protected bike infrastructure but the local drivist crybabies and business owners won't give up one lousy lane of parking despite there being 5 lanes of car traffic into the city of Pittsburgh. Typical Yinzer carbrain bullshit.
