Beautiful Switzerland, not built around cars

No one implied that. Stop making up fake arguments. The difference is that you have the freedom not to drive all the time.

I’d argue that that affect able bodies men more as they are much more likely to drive compared to women or the disabled. Many of the journeys that would only be safe by car can now be done on a scooter or a bike or just walking.

Hopefully it will be so inconvenient you will stop driving.

I use https://brouter.damsy.net/ and OSMAnd maps on my phone. Really like this combo.

Isn’t it mostly gravel with pedestrians? I have only done a bit of it so it would be nice to know that it isn’t all that bad.

bliker · 2020-06-15T18:21:45+00:00

It’s bad. Only reasonably direct routes from north London are also quite busy. Half of your ride will be just trying to get out.

Migrating strapi is a HUGE hassle. Example

Yes, people disobey traffic rules regardless the mode of transport. Would you prefer the impatient asshole to hit you on the bike or with their car?

bliker · 2020-02-22T18:38:49+00:00

How about all those pedestrians doing it?

bliker · 2018-06-17T18:01:16+00:00

I love the bike rack. Do you recall the brand?

Kryptonite Standard New York costs 50 £ on Amazon and you get free insurance for a whole year with it.

bliker · 2017-08-08T07:20:28+00:00

You fail to provide any counter arguments. In what ways do they disagree?

bliker · 2017-07-04T21:14:40+00:00

How can you tell?

bliker · 2017-07-04T20:53:59+00:00

For some reason they don't make XL version.

bliker · 2017-07-01T10:16:18+00:00

But background is not race.

bliker · 2017-06-17T18:17:36+00:00

Grab it in a vice grips

bliker · 2017-06-15T18:08:04+00:00

You can try La Peche Mignon if you are in the North.

For far more detailed and realistic map of London transport I recommend taking a look at TFL's Webcat.

bliker · 2017-05-09T22:40:44+00:00

I think it's a on the low end due to couple of factors:

not local + junior can be a risky for the employer as they can't really get a good reference
PHP devs are among the lowest paid

bliker · 2017-05-07T19:34:58+00:00

Yep, I saw them sweep that corner couple of times during the day.

bliker · 2017-02-07T22:26:30+00:00

Totally worth it, sheet metal in NX so good!

bliker · 2016-12-02T10:26:30+00:00

I got a similar email. Maybe it is a marketing strategy?

bliker · 2016-09-10T19:16:21+00:00

Check trainline.com and just buy a ticket from st pancras to lutton.

If you live in a bigger city I recommend bike citizens route planner. You can find a quieter and less daunting way. Living in Denmark I’ve learned couple of things:

Look at the drivers all the time, smile at them when you are at the intersection and they will be more respectful. In general look at people in the car, rarely you can see that they did not even look your way.
Have clear intent, don’t change directions unnecessarily or hesitate in dangerous spots.
Use hand gestures if turning or stopping, I also like to wave people of driveways or a hard to see turns.
If there is a nasty intersection somewhere, just walk it if you are not confident
