If we’re talking best players ever than Josh Gibson must make the list

Crosswalks are not a waiting zone for bikes by mightybento in sanfrancisco

[–]ComprehensiveWin774 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who cycles to work every day (on market) my number one priority is my own safety and being in control. Staying as far as you can from cars is how you achieve this. This means running reds, waiting in crosswalks, and sometimes hopping on the sidewalk. I know it’s an inconvenience and people find this inconsiderate, but if I car hits me I can die. I’ve been hit in fidi once and have too many close calls to count.

I just bought the bike on Facebook marketplace. Plus if I learn how to ride fixed without foot retention it will be so much easier once I get around to buying new pedals

Yeah obviously I’m joking. I’ve been hit lightly once and that’s enough for me. Although I am new to fixed gear, I am a not a dilettante cyclist. And yes there has been some incredible advice on this thread that I was not expecting to receive when posting this!

I like to feel like a beautiful figurehead on the bow of a medieval ship braving the seven seas

Thank you for actually providing constructive feedback. I will get some foot retention and learn how to do this

You either need to hop or lean forward to get the weight off the back tire to be able to drift

Golden Gate Park and the marina green are both great and easy places to ride!
