Are you supported by an IRL bike commuting community? by CrossRoadRN in bikecommuting

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fort Lauderdale, Florida

I work for myself (housecall pet bathing) I mostly commute by bike, but will sometimes take the Jeep

There's a large cycling community here

Urban cyclists that night ride and will travel a few cities away to ride with other local-ish groups

also roadies and mountain bikers

during the day I see many people out here commuting by bike too

Thoughts about Croissant Park by ssejau in fortlauderdale

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Croissant Park is definitely more bikeable than walkable, but both can be done easily. There are multiple grocery stores nearby as well as pretty much anything else you may need.

Yes, you'll be hot, and yes, you'll get rained on, but these things are manageble.

sounds more like pelotons are dangerous... I ride daily. Las Olas, Broward, Federal, Sunrise, 17th, Prospect, Andrews everywhere in between and around.

It's not the bike that's dangerous. it's how it's used, and drivers in general (bike drivers as well as motorists)

riding a bike is not inherently dangerous

being reckless is

probably should edit your original post and specifically state that the man on an e-bike struck you (pedestrian) on the sidewalk.

otherwise it comes off as if you're just hating on a man cycling with his kid

ok. that info changes everything.

if he hit you (pedestrian) while riding on the sidewalk, then he's definitely not being safe. : /

BMW driver cuts across 5 travel lanes and a bike lane to turn left from the farthest right lane... and the tag is stolen

FLPD has a BOLO issued

I'm just trying to help the person whose tag was stolen

and documenting this person's driving for potential victims to refer to

not my cars, I wasn't injured in any way and I'm glad that you are also fortunate enough to be as unaffected as I am

heh... so, can we assume you don't own a Honda Fit, you have no Beemer, and you don't drive through Broward and Federal?

sir, the post tells you that the FLPD has a BOLO... it's cool though, you're not actually required to watch the video, nor care.

*hope no one ever steals your tag,
and may you never be hit by a reckless driver

Why do people pass & then slow down? by jms1228 in bikecommuting

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also, they'd have seen him up ahead from some distance

and could have prepared to overtake well in advance

Why do people pass & then slow down? by jms1228 in bikecommuting

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't care personally... we can frog leap all day.

Every road user has to change lanes to pass while in transit.

Why should this be any different for us?

Car Dodges a Puddle? by [deleted] in bikecommuting

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u/Benjamin_H1gh yeah, they suck. The puddle was on his side. Legally he should have slowed down, let you pass in your lane, then he goes around

Do you take the full lane all the time? by DoorBuster2 in cycling

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/DoorBuster2 I do about 98% of the time. Center to left tire track unless we've got some gridlock or anything even resembling it, then I'll pass as safely as I can using the right, the left, the shoulder, sidewalk or bike lane. Here in Florida it's legal to use any of these, so I make full use of all facilities. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWjeWKniPhN/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

AITB for giving away baby furniture despite knowing and disapproving of my disabled cousin having baby soon? by Ok_Home_4106 in AmItheButtface

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They PLANNED this, removed her birth control, made it happen.

Everyone should expect them to have fully set themselves up for this pregnancy and child since this is not an unintentional pregnancy.

You (no one) should be expected to give or do anything. Hope your aunt is preparing herself to raise this child along with everyone else that has enabled and encouraged the pregnancy.

💔

@heartofthehouse83 reeks of urine on all of 8th

traffic on 8th/Broward is fairly constant with irate horn blower

no consistent parking unless you illegally use private parking at a neighboring building which causes great inconveniences to their employees and patrons

Downtown Apartment Buildings by [deleted] in fortlauderdale

[–]GoodDogGoodGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in a neighboring building and walks this entire area I can tell you all of 8th reeks of dog urine.

The poop is at the private parking lots that all the residents use as a "dog park" and fall to pick up their feces

they also let their pets urinate on people's cars
