Did we ever find out what people are supposed to do w/ garbage cans? I've seen several on the curb but this morning there were about 10 black/green bins in the bike lane around Nicholson.
Hell if I know. Yesterday I saw all kinds of cans laid over, blocking the bike lanes.

There was a dude biking this morning in shorts wearing a full hiking backpack. Folks are crazy.
Pack training is a real thing. If you see some dude walking on W. 11th or the hike & bike, or on the stair climber at Anytime Fitness with a big desert camo backpack, that's probably me. I'm training for a backcountry through hike in June.

Last question, I treat the westbound section between Dorothy & Shepherd as two lanes since there's no bike lane there (painted nor curbed) but there's also no lane markers; AITA?
I do the same.

If I see you rucking in the bike lane, I will bust a U-ey, jack the AHC up to highest level, straddle the bike lane curb, and politely ask you to use the sidewalk!!!

I use the sidewalk, except for that spot where the spin studio removed the sidewalk and blocked the bike lane.

Is that what's going into the new 2 story building they're building? Yes, very annoying when construction blocks sidewalks.

My side of Timbergrove has the sidewalks right against the street and there are constantly work vans blocking them.

I think the Heights has more places offering spin classes than actual bikes in the area.

His spare was flat so I let him use my compressor to air it up. I was irritated, but no sense in being an a hole to someone who was essentially controlling my driveway. Besides, he paid the price for not paying attention to objects in the street. He didn't need me rubbing his nose in it. His rim was a total loss

were you able to point him in the direction of a good rim job?












3 week ban for that? More?

Well, from what some of y'all said, Daddy's quality took a direct nosedive and they are overpriced, so not surprising.

The other place is attracting neckbeards and $30,000 millionaires because it is the place to be.

I only bust out the skinny jeans, flannel shirt, Dr. Martens, and fidora on special occasions.

I don't care how much those ****ers try to claim PBR as their thing. I'm still claiming that **** as being a lolpoor in college reminder.

I have a really nice Dobb's fedora that was made close to 70 years I used to enjoy wearing. I had to stop wearing it because hipsters ruined fedoras.

Hipsters ruined trilbys, not proper fedoras. Feel free to wear if it's an actual fedora.

Back to 11th St bike lanes, I did a free demo ride from Pedego in MKT just to cruise down the bike lanes on a fat tire e bike. I rode from Nicholson to Oxford & back, experienced some debris, ran a couple reds, folks didn't yield when I crossed at the pedestrian island, and didn't die.

The Pedego bike was pretty cool, it was owned (and signed by Biggio) and he put RockShox up front so it was extra smooth.
