"In patriarchal societies where is coded as and control, men often try to get closer to women through power and control. The range of how this plays out is vast. It could be inconsequential, or it could end a woman’s life. This (...) may also be a reason why so many women in the “Man or Bear” debate chose the bear."

I recommend every man to read this piece by long-distance Laura Killingbeck.

@ilumium Don't just say "I recommend every man to read this piece". It is good reading for women as well.

We recently concluded the preprint "Cohesive urban bicycle infrastructure design through optimal transport routing in multilayer networks" https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.02052
with A. Lonardi & C. De Bacco. We focus on #copenhagen as it is a great example for the annoying phenomenon of #cyclist congestion - too little space for all those people!

As a , do you have a preferred corner direction?

Mine is left-handed, so much so that when planning/riding a route, I always go counter-clockwise because clockwise feels completely wrong 😅

@robertklep this explains so much. :D

I have a ride that's just laps on an old airport and I usually cycle it clockwise, because that's the direction I'm more comfortable on.

Are you left-handed by any chance?

Tell me what bike brands you love!

is now a working prototype. But very short on data. I'm not a bike expert so hearing from you is very educational.

What are some bike parts that people who are shopping should not overlook?

If you don't have any suggestions, a boost be helpful too!

@kleb racks mounting lugs and max fender width and/or tire width would be good fork and frame-specific intel if you can get it. A larger tire may fit without fenders (cyclocross) or by cutting the fender around the fork. The rest are more like things you forget to buy/pack before the ride, or e.g. legally required to have a bell. Looking at your brakes section, a list of compatible replacement pads would be cool.

@Alonealastalovedalongthe @kleb some of those have a narrower front hub, I think 75mm O.L.D. rather than the typical 100.

Scientists are on it 🤦‍♂️

Scientists: Pedestrians Could Wear Devices to Protect Themselves From Self-Driving Cars 😬
The research “proposes that pedestrians get used to carrying reflective gadgets that amplify vehicles' radar and send it back to them” 🤷‍♂️

Oh lawd.

Next research will propose that pedestrians be enclosed in a protective box. On wheels.

Am I tired of this?
Yes I am.

You know who has an excellent track record for not killing or maiming pedestrians?

Bus drivers.

Does someone of the #cyclist community of #NYC know who maintains (orbmaintained) ghostbikes.org ? It seems somewhat unmaintained and I'd like to convergence them with #OpenStreetMap (esp with https://mapcomplete.org/ghostbikes ) #ghostbike
