• Lmao tell me you’ve never experienced cycling in any capacity outside a park or parking lot without telling me.

    Give me a fucking bike lane or shut the fuck up, I’ve been literally forced off the road every single year I’ve been cycling since 15, I have been hit by cars more times than I can count, I have been hit with things thrown by cars, I have been hit by city busses, semis, and even fucking cops.

    I wear hi vis clothing, my bike has lights front back and sides, at least one constant and one flashing in each direction. I leave 3ft between me and anything to my right, and am as far to the right as I can be without ILLEGALLY riding on the sidewalk

    Where in the ABSOLUTE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO GO

    There is idiot drivers. There are idiot cyclists. There are idiot pedestrians. People are idiots.

    Also drivers: “Uh, taking over cyclists with two centimeters between us will show them to better use bike lanes next time, even where none exist!”

    Meanwhile pedestrians: “He, why is the sidewalk split into a red and a grey area? Is this a two-way-walkway?”
