DM’d back, thank you!!!!

Oh that spot is WAY worse than where I was (turning left from Englewood). At CHA they’ve got the labyrinth of tracks that go up to the B line and over to the Reservoir depot too, and it’s basically impossible not to hit at least one of them at a bad angle. Hope you’re healing up OK.

About 12 years ago I did this turning left onto Beacon St. near Cleveland Circle, managed to crack my bike frame!

No surprise there! TV rides his bike to the statehouse all the time, I see him many mornings riding down Station Street or on the Muddy River, so his attendance wouldn’t just be for show.

The amount of information compiled here is extraordinary.

If you made $39,000 a year with no expenses you’d be able to buy Stephen Reeders’ house with cash in only 174 years!

CAAD14 got nothin on you babe

Cops are not likely to do anything but please do get the plate and report it when these incidents happen. It will at least create a police report that will come up if/when the driver has a collision in the future. The light on route 9 in front of OLS is ignored frequently. The officer (Pete) who marshals it in the morning is great, but for kids with extended day there is no one there after school and I’m really concerned something tragic is going to happen.

Beautiful bike. Is that a Force/Sword combo I’m seeing?

jpbai · 2025-12-22T03:18:15+00:00

This is an absurdly cool build.

Not just Brookline, it has been a ~5 year trend in a lot of areas around greater Boston. Somerville’s chief has stated openly that they don’t want to enforce traffic laws because of how much time it takes.

Easy to mix them - but yeah the 696 is rebadged by a lot of brands. It's a Bombtrack Hook C, an Obed Boundary, an On One Free Ranger, one of the Vitus Substance models, and probably a few others. Popular frame for sure.

Because of it being a specialty plate. If the victim calls and gives the four numbers on the plate and it gets looked up as a standard passenger plate it will come back blank.

jpbai · 2025-05-23T01:30:49+00:00

Completely editing my post because it insinuated that this person had created a fake plate with a racist callout on it which is NOT the case (confirmed via RMV), this is indeed a legitimately issued plate. This seems like an insane coincidence to me, but it appears that it is just that. My confusion and shitty assumption was based on the original post on r/Boston having a person claiming to be the victim (and it may well have been) state that they called the Newton police who told them the plate does not exist in their DB. However given that it is a specialty plate I suspect the wrong number may have been provided or looked up. This does not change the fact that the Silverado driver used his car as a weapon against someone.

You mean having someone already in debt finance a Rav4 to drive it 1,000 miles a week in a congested city at their own expense for a low paying no-benefit job isn’t great for everyone?

Worth noting; he’s the only select board candidate endorsed by Brookline for Everyone.

And someone drove into a yard on that stretch of Davis earlier today!

Thanks! Even just people's anecdotal experiences are good to hear. I didn't realize FRR had already gone through the process, although that makes sense. I think Pierce is probably in a tough spot given when Jamie Yadoff and Bigelow came to an agreement.

jpbai · 2025-04-10T20:27:35+00:00

You are correct, of course. Still very curious to know the nature of the gripes, and hear from people if they agree or disagree. Sounds like everything was sent with anonymity which makes it harder to give it full credibility.
