TBH I have thought about getting a mounto bikington so I can go on rides with J, but hes way way fitter than I am and can do the steep bits of merri trail and shiz and i'd just die.

those bits take some practice

I guess I could just ride around AP lake, its all flat.

I have to be honest, fear of being doored/hit by car is the main reason I've never gotten another bike (when I usaed to ride as a teen it was legal to ride on footpaths where i lived, I never got used to traffic)

And when shit happens like my cousin's husband, who gets a little scooter, then gets mashed off it like 2 weeks later and is now a quadraplegic, its like ehhhhh.

like i have to stop saying like so much, damn.
traffic sucks for sure and i will go to great lengths to avoid any roads without explicit lanes. in my last ~6 month stint of riding i only had two closish calls, but generally felt reasonably safe. i tend to find if you don't ride like a fuckhead your ability to stay alive tends to hover at a highish level

*explicit bike lanes
― electricsound, Friday, 9 November 2012 01:06 (eleven years ago) link
explicit lanes
why don't we do it in the road

i tend to find if you don't ride like a fuckhead tanked and on a BMX at 3am your ability to stay alive tends to hover at a highish level

i can't ride drunk, i get puffed really quickly
I can barely sit in a taxi drunk, I'd be effed on a bike and have NO idea how ppl drive in that state.
― Una Stubbs' Tears (Trayce), Friday, 9 November 2012 05:22 (eleven years ago) link
Then again, I do tend to get rather mashed.
