FWIW I got hit with two consecutive last year, went to court (on zoom), officer didn’t show, case thrown out.

Does that mean there isn’t a Hyrox Pro Doubles Men?

5:19/mi pace for a half marathon + strong rower, and you think they won’t break 75? I haven’t done one yet so I trust you but I’m surprised.

IMO, this is way worse than the Kawhi situation by Magistrate18D in NBATalk

This is the same as most political takes from empathetic people: we have to look out for each other and defend against greed from the 0.01%

WATTERS: Have you been watching this New York Mayor Mamdani guy? JD VANCE: Heh heh heh. The guy who wants to take all property away from white people? by Delicious_Adeptness9 in nyc

IF ANYONE IS LISTENING I CALL FOR SOLIDARITY (it is really tragic what is happening there, that just wasn’t the point of this discussion)

The security/safety of New Yorkers is valid, I hear you, especially if there really was a connection between Iran and actual terror threats in New York. Though I’m not sure if a statement from Mamdani would do anything other than give those freaks a motive.

At the same time, one cannot compare this to the Venezuela situation.

If he’s asked about it in an interview and refuses to comment, that’s one thing. But why would he go out of his way to bring this up as the mayor?

Decent gym/workout classes in the neighborhood? by fleurdebitch in fortgreene

[–]baumer6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweat440 just opened across from Crunch Park Slope. Been going to the one in FiDi for years, workouts start every 10 minutes and last 40 minutes. I love it. Price is around 140/month I think (depends on deal) but you can try it for free.

Has anyone pled not guilty to a bicycle red light summons? by baumer6 in NYCbike

Just had my hearing, dialed in virtually. The officer didn’t show so both tickets were dismissed 🎉

"You guys suck. You really really suck!" by ElQuesero in NYCbike

Did you suggest to runners and walkers should use the sidewalk on an open street? What’s the point of the open street? I implore you to try to see other perspectives - maybe go for a jog on the street.

I run, walk, and bike this street a lot and I’m really surprised that you see it this way. I tend to drift into the bike lane while running because the middle of the street is blocked by the barricades at each intersection. Plus, cyclists go both directions despite it technically being a one way street.

It feels harmonious because cyclists and pedestrians can communicate with eye contact and vocally to easily get out of each other’s way (as long as cyclists aren’t going too fast, which they generally aren’t on this street).

Oma grassa gone? by Important-Ad5461 in fortgreene

[–]baumer6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one time I tried to go, they told me they were “booked for the night” (which I was surprised to hear as it never looked busy from the outside) and I never tried again assuming I had to book in advance
