Cargo bikes for democracy! 🗳️ My daughter and I took the cargo bike to the post office and dropped off our household absentee ballots. Two votes to end a Republican cult rooted in oppression and fascism.

i love seeing pics of bikes but this one is special. Everyone in my city could have one of these - or very similar - for 90% of their car shit, and anything that required going really far could just be handled by a train, the station of which they could get to with their bike. We could choose this.

If you are ever feeling down about the injustices in the world, It’s because there is an enormous propaganda machine trying to make you numb to the truth… and it didn’t work on you.

Besides creating a buffer for physical safety, the LaneSaber bike flag creates a buffer for your mental health as well. The effect is instantaneous. When you no longer look over your shoulder to gauge the oncoming danger your road stress melts away.

It's amazing how some people dehumanize others simply for choosing a transportation method that doesn't involve a car. They also hate traffic and other drivers, while simultaneously seething with rage at anyone walking, cycling, or proposing we fund better public transit.

Test riding bikes out of your pay grade is irresponsible. You should totally do it. Info #AltText
Picture description : A picture of a carbon fiber road bike with wide tires, disc brakes, electronic shifting, suspension seat post/stem. Leaning against a wooden fence.

This is a Calfee Design’s shop mule for a more capable version of the Manta.  This one has wider tire clearance (50mm), front suspension (30mm), rear suspension (12mm), and some shock absorbing components. Designed to be a do all adventure Bike that is incredibly capable. This thing has flexible chain days to do the shock absorbing in the back.  It’s really comfortable to ride.

The normal clientele for Calfee is getting older and they’re looking for a more comfortable ride. Now with more people going off-road these sorts of bikes are becoming a lot more popular.

Pretty overboard but I’m not gonna say no!

I have a feeling that when GenX and Millennials age out of MTB and into mobility scooters we are going to see a bunch of new high performance aftermarket mods pop up. I also have a feeling that some wet blanket is going to make laws named after me. I can not be contained

Sometimes I see into my neighbors garages when I’m out walking around. To the those who have empty ones, what is it like to not ever spend time in that part of your house? Like, where do you even hang out at night?

Return of the SpaceCake With newly repaired foam and magnets, the new foil tape and led (repulser lifts) could be reapplied. Next step will be seeing if I can revive these switches that quit working in the dust storms.

Getting started on the rebuild of the LandSpeeder. Mostly foam, glue, and some new LEDs. Gotta have it ready for Halloween!
A pile of shredded foil, tape and LEDs on the concreteWhere I’m replacing some foam that was broken off the pink foam is the new piece that I’m gluing in place right nowI should’ve sealed up these switches. They stopped working when I was there. Hopefully, they can get them working again.

Because just like authoritarian leaders, the petro-masculinity complex enables people to act out their worst self without consequences. If you want to get away with killing a pedestrian or a cyclists in America, do it in your gender affirming toy truck.

The most dangerous thing around my school is a distracted parent driving a 7,000 lb child crusher. While I think it’s important to teach road safety to kids, just question the effectiveness of the message when delivered by cops.

Gotta agree with the classic points. Cyclists are indeed bad for the economy.
A poster reading "CYCLING IS BAD FOR THE ECONOMY" with a picture of a bicycle underneath it. 
The main paragraphs read "A cyclist is a disaster for the country's economy - He does not buy the car & does not take a car loan - Does not buy car insurance - Does not buy Fuel - Does not send his car for servicing & repairs - Does not use paid Parking - Does not become Obese Yes,,....and well, damn it!! Healthy people are not needed for economy. They do not buy drugs. They do not go to Hospitals & Doctors. They add nothing to country's GDP. On the contrary, every new fast food outlet creates at least 30 jobs - 10 Cardiologists, 10 Dentists, 10 weight loss experts apart from people working in the outlet. Choose wisely: A Cyclist or a KFC ? Worth thinking about!! PS: Walking is even worse. They do not even buy a bicycle!!"

Great weekend. I am so happy. Some of you know I've had a fairly difficult time over the last couple of years but I'm fighting my way out now. Long weekend in Cumbria, biking, walking, eating and drinking. Lovely. ❤️

It’s just as dangerous to over torque your bikes hardware as it is to under torque. Knowing when to use lock tight and when to use grease is also very important to your bikes safe functionality. I use wrenches like this. They are inexpensive and a good way to improve your bike mechanic abilities.
