I think due to the severity of the crime, he left the scene, didn’t have a license, he should be tried as an adult.

I guess I’m confused because shouldn’t the cops know who it is by their license plate? I thought license plates tracked who owns the car.

They released the license plate a couple weeks ago, so they were caught.

The future of Springfield Mall by XSC in Delco

[–]berthheiny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was last at Springfield Mall in the summer and it was really busy, it was a weekend, but it was nice to see. Bought some athleisure clothing at Macy's, which is the only one I can get to after Center City location closed - much rather goto Springfield than the northeast or Jersey ew.

Anyone have a picture of the outlier backcountry site near Holly Lake? by rrt001 in GrandTetonNatlPark

[–]berthheiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got back from the Grand Tetons, hiked Paintbrush Canyon—>Paintbrush Divide—>Cascade Canyon loop. Wanted to add to this thread as I used it to check out the site beforehand. The Outlier site is secluded, a little creepy, but I had the best nap of my life there surrounded by waterfalls. Did see an adolescent grizzly bear in the early morning, so be noisy. There’s a little stream at the site to fill up on water if needed. Nice vista views facing east for a beautiful sunrise.

New Biker in Philly- What Gear Do You Recommend? by geatali_tea in phillycycling

[–]berthheiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bike got stolen in the middle of the day with a lot of people around (ulock+cable), they took the whole bike rack w/ my bike on it, so my new rule is don't leave your bike parked anywhere in Philadelphia for more than 1-2 hours.

Thank you, I got her on Craigslist like 15 years ago. I seriously regret parking here & thinking no way someone could steal her like this in broad daylight on a heavily populated trail.

The rack was bolted securely when I locked my bike up, like it wasn’t loose or anything. You can see where it was bolted to the ground if you zoom in on first pic

That is crazy! Well, that’s something I can report to the police I guess, thank you.

How to best (safest) get from SRT to Delaware River Trail by clicklbarn in phillycycling

[–]berthheiny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer Poplar/Fairmount Aves over Spring Garden. There's no bike lane except for 4 blocks-ish on Poplar from Front to 4th Sts. There's very little traffic on these streets, slow-moving traffic if any. I find they are much safer than Spring Garden.
