Spinlister: Peer-To-Peer Bike Sharing Gets Rolling →
This is test launching in a couple of cities in California. I have a lot of thoughts on this, but I don’t have enough time to sort through them all at the moment.
My initial thoughts are: Maybe, but I’m not convinced.

Sweden Plans A New Superhighway For Cyclists →
The latest to emerge is in Sweden, where there’s a proposal to build a 12.5-mile bike superhighway to connect the college town of Lund to the metropolis of Malmö. This supercykelväg, as the Swedes call it, would have two lanes in each direction with fences and landscaping to both separate it from traffic and provide wind protection. In a brilliant addition, the plans also call for multiple bike...

iambal: HAHAHAHAA!!!! ”rational thought and logical arguments”- this from someone who wondered how conservatives would feel about violations of privacy!
And next time, just don’t use my posts to edit and cut and twist stories to mean things they don’t on topics they aren’t about.

Sen. Paul stopped by TSA at airport, law... →
…Paul refused [a pat down], resisting on the grounds that it infringes on his rights and “private property.”
littletinyfish: I wonder how well that statement would go over with the anti-choice rally to which he was heading when he was detained.
iambal: 2 things about this reblog:
1. I bet it would go over great since “anti-choice” people are traditionally conservative and conservatives...

convincingindie: Just arrived home - current temp 8 (feels like -8) - from my first reeeeeeeally cold BIKE WINTER commute (again: first time winter bike commuter here). Upon arriving at my apartment, the manager was out front freezing his ass off having a smoke.
Him, to me: “Holy shit.”
Me: “If I can do this, I can do anything.” (feeling pretty much like ArcticSuperman here)
Him: “Amen.”

DC Entertainment Officially Unveils New Logo →
l3fan-o-rama: see? look at the versatility in this logo. i’m sold. i love it even if “a peelback is so design 101”.
Clark Kent/Superman is the ultimate peelback, as is 90% of what DC does. This is a very forward thinking logo for a company like DC Comics Entertainment whose industry is morphing into something different than it was even 10 years ago. The comics industry is less and less...

WALKER STREET!!! RECALL THAT THROROUGHFARE!
We’ve created a monster! Let’s hope he doesn’t catch wind of the neighborhood’s name (Walker’s Point) or we’re all screwed.

taeblog: The trail in the first half of this video is pretty awesome. Must be a bitch to clean up after it rains though.
Wow. I want to go there, but I know I could never use that trail to its fullest capacity. This guy makes it look effortless.

The hawk lands upon my outstretched arm.
fireland: The hawk lands upon my outstretched arm. I unroll the message affixed to its leg: did you get the email i sent y/n. I angrily throw the note to the ground and the hawk takes wing with an irritated squawk.
I glower at the slumbering city, fists clenched. Suddenly, the sky explodes in a riot of color. I cower in terror but then slowly stand back up as I see the fireworks spell out...

Awesome!!! Who won?!
Judging by the picture, Marcelo wore himself out early while Giuseppe clamped down tight, biding his time until just the right moment. One swift yank with a turn of the head and Giuseppe had himself a hot dog and Marcelo had himself a few less teeth. They’ll both sleep well tonight.

Years ago, it blundered by not designing and building the bridge so that it would accommodate pedestrians and bicyclists.
Now it is banning bicyclists...
