When mad drivers tell you that you, a cyclist, don't belong on roads because you don't pay registration and the gas tax, show them the Road Damage Calculator. Compare, for example, the damage made by a small SUV and a longtail cargo e-bike. Very different orders of magnitude

Because Trump is nothing, he is useful as a mirror. His success mirrors the dysfunctions of our politics & media. His support mirrors the resentments & fears of his supporters. His fearsome reputation mirrors the insecurities of the left. He is showing us what *we* are.

Wow, that’s a pretty big point of disagreement, NPR. Maybe someone could investigate which point of view is correct and report on the truth of the matter. Do you know anyone who does that sort of thing?

Also a note, disclosing settlement details is a breach of the contract & it can be taken right back to court for the full award amount so I encourage everyone to just move on as we all are trying to do.

Our cities plan parking around peak usage and plan roads for rush hour, so they certainly believe in judging a transportation system by how well it works at its worst. This is a post about winter sidewalk and bike lane maintenance.
