sometimes the pool noodle on a kickstand feels silly, but then I see drivers and I'm glad @sundance.bikesky.social gave me the idea
New NACTO signage criteria just dropped ^kj
Ebikes are accessible to huge sections of the population that don't have the option to ride a standard bike.
This is a horrific precedent for a state to set.
Tierlist of bike rack types: S: Staple, Inverted U/round staple, circle rack; A: Inverted U with a design panel; B: Bollard Racks, Bike Corral, Staple on crossbars; C: bike shaped bike rack, artsy racks (swan shaped); D: Wave Rack; F: coathanger rack; HELL: Wheelbender
I have attempted a tierlist of common styles of bike racks. (Just install staple racks!)
Below market rate parking, but you have to sit through five minutes of getting roasted by a teenager who makes you feel bad about driving your car.

Is NDOT putting up more of these blame-the-pedestrian LOOK signs? I saw this one at Rosa Parks and Church, moments before two different drivers turned in front of two people crossing on the leading pedestrian indicator. (This is where Hume-Fogg student Elena Zamora was killed in 2013.)
My New Year’s resolutions are the same every year: read more books, ride my bike more.
If I do these things, everything else improves: fitness, mental health, energy levels, not being so murdery, appetite, sleep, the need to scream in your face.
Books and bikes, they make life better.
Antique postcard featuring an illustration of a baby angel riding a tricycle with coin wheels and a bunch of pigs following it. It says "Happy New Year" in Czech and has a handwritten greeting in Czech.
Happy new year, bicycle friends ❤️🚲
We'd love to have you round for some questionably better choices :) ^kj

Manufacturers: hey we want to make bikes for kids!
CPSC: Coaster brake reqd for seat height lower than [whatever, I can't remember]
Manufacturers: hey we'll put a front brake on that doesn't actually work but it looks like it does! & big box store Bob the assembler won't gaf about it either!
These are the janky cheap ones on kids bikes @airbornegeek.com not the better ones from a past time. The pull ain't pullin' here. FWIW I generally take those off if the kids bike is a standard coaster too. Likely no rear brake on it other than coaster tbh. ^kj
Funny how your company can be a member of the NDP but not be within these boundaries nashvilledowntown.com/membership ^kj
