re: #312 Bert’s House of Beef and Obdicuts

I grew up split between the country and the city. Where I wanted to go in the country was back into the woods, where a car isn’t useful. In the city, going places in a car and parking generally took longer, so I never bothered to learn how to drive.

I am still amazed at how anti-bicycle and anti-scooter US cities generally are. They have to be strong-armed almost into establishing bike lanes (and usually poorly designed and enforced ones at that.) And once you have the lanes there is still the on-going issue with secure storage of the bicycle once you reach the destination since racks and parking space for bicycles is another afterthought.
