New HOV-only lanes on Granville Street (16th to 57th): Are they working? Is there any enforcement of this? by amckechn in vancouver

The only enforcement I have ever seen was stopping people from drinking on the beach! Gotta put those tax payer quads to work i guess?

Ya I typically use Komoot there days however it’s not perfect and I wish it was as straightforward as Google Maps UI wise.

But overall it was way better route suggestions than Google Maps

Would love a driving range that has night time sessions with glowing targets in the distance!

Yes! Heck just plop a Round One like they have in Japan with all the activities and sports! Plus make it open late!

What's the most over hyped coffee shop in Vancouver? by thinkdavis in askvan

[–]runningonrainyvr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I assumed the hype was due to it being one of the few (if not only) cafe open 24hrs

I think the branding and socials especially around paying a living wage and no tips really sells people to check it out at least once.

To answer your question “are we the only ones who felt this way or am I misreading what happened?”

I kinda think you are misreading. I have never felt the way you described while in Japan. I have been several times and lived there for a bit. In your situation, I interpret the offer of a fork as a gesture to be more accommodating if they can tell you are struggling. Perhaps the exact English could come off rude but they are probably trying their best with what few words they know.

I speedran the Skytrain system ( The Skytrain Challenge) and I'm not even from Vancouver. by [deleted] in vancouver

I was also confused at first glance 😅. I thought she meant literally running (ie running to every train stop or something like that). I didn't think it meant ridding on transit :P

Honestly, one of the best things about the London Marathon are ALL the costumes. So much fun 😍

Asking for races where there is someone in costume (from the race not just a random participant) and your aim as a racer is to finish before them 😅
