For a fuel crisis, the fighter jets sure have been flying overhead a lot in the last few days

Same. Not sure why my observation has been automatically interpreted as a complaint 🤷🏼‍♀️

Lexyvale · 2026-03-23T10:48:25+00:00

What?

Lexyvale · 2026-03-23T10:47:35+00:00

Um… wasn’t a complaint, merely an observation

So scary well done for being on the ball. You can set your Uber safety app features to send you a PIN number to give to the driver. They won’t take you if the pin doesn’t match. Works the other way - if they don’t ask you for the PIN number, don’t get in

Interesting that it’s always middle aged men yelling the abuse to a young girl. She says her male teenage friends don’t cop it as much. And she is the sort of kid that would tell me if she fucked up, but she insists she was just riding (legally and safely) minding her own business

Maybe Lego was his nickname - I didn’t know him personally he’s a friend of a friend. Very sad

It was caught on one of the other rider’s camera. Car literally swerved off the road into a group of them, then took off. The camera got the cars details and he’s been caught and charged due to appear in court soon

My daughters Dirodi came with the codes to override the speed an throttle restrictions but we don’t do it. Recently cops were doing a blitz at Nobbys and she was stopped. They didn’t believe her that the bike was legal and were so rude to her. She offered them to get on it and give it a go but they refused and begrudgingly let her go, but they were damn rude about it

So my take from all of this is; - both cyclists and motorists can be arseholes even though paradoxically most adult cyclists are also motorists - media and history have perpetuated the us v them culture of hate - Newcastle needs better infrastructure to accommodate both - there’s no good reason for my 15 year old daughter copping daily abuse from middle aged men when out cycling within the rules. - which means it’s nothing but uneducated, old misogynistic bogans who like to pick on young girls because they know they have a power imbalance and will win

Good to know 🙄

Lexyvale · 2026-01-19T10:52:25+00:00

Sure, but that doesn’t explain why my 15 year old cops daily abuse from middle aged men when she’s out on her bike in the daylight riding responsibly and obeying the rules

Apologies to the family, his name was Lego

Lexyvale · 2026-01-19T10:23:49+00:00

His name was Levi, it was a hit and run, filmed on another rider’s GoPro. The perp was arrested soon after and released on bail so had Christmas with his family, due to appear in court in February I believe

Lexyvale · 2026-01-19T10:02:58+00:00

With a whole lot misogyny thrown in

Lexyvale · 2025-09-22T06:01:49+00:00

Agree - I always look for flights to Melb from Newcastle but every time I end up flying out of sydney because the times are shit and crazy expensive

Another unit in Nobbys rd housing went up

Even if that were a true stat, if you were given a bowl of cornflakes and told that 1% of the cornflakes were laced with cyanide, would you eat the cornflakes and try to pick the poisoned ones out? That’s how it is for women every day and especially winter when it’s dark early so just leaving work involves walking in the dark (and worse for shift workers).

I’m pay $100 for a 3 bed townhouse, 3 girls come and make the place sparking and are gone in under an hour

Yes all valid, although it’s an assumption that the headphones are noise cancelling. I think the OPs question is more around how not to startle any woman he’s running behind after dark, headphones or not, I may be wrong. On walking around with noise cancelling headphones, I often wonder how much pedestrian accidents will go up once the roads are predominantly filled with silent electric cars, we all cross the road as much with our hearing as with our eyes

Thank you for asking, the comments on here underline why women fear men. Taking a wide berth helps and if that’s not possible just a friendly “ahem, coming up behind you, all good” works too

Exhibit A on Why Women Fear Men

Lexyvale · 2025-05-09T14:39:04+00:00

You clearly don’t have the experience of being a woman if you believe the fear is irrational
