  • Echt waar? Fietsen waar het stuur en beide wielvorken zo vervloekt zijn? Nah, deze fiets is een simulacrum van hoe een fiets er ongeveer uit zou moeten zien.

    For the others:
    Really? Bicycles where the handlebars and both wheel forks are this cursed? Nah, this is a simulacrum of what a bicycle should approximately look like.







    • Anecdotal evidence is merely evidence of an anecdote.
    • Just because those people are decent (or maybe seem decent when they’re around you) does not mean that assholes do not exist.
    • The point still stands that MAMILs cycle in spite of infrastructure, not thanks to. This is not the case in the vid, but probably is the case for the above commenter.

    Would you be comfortable sharing the lane with things that outweigh and outrun you by two orders of magnitude, where a forgettable bump for them would probably be your death, and where at best there’s a chance they might not notice or see you in a decent frame of time, at worst they’ll actively try to hurt you. I’d hate to cycle in such an environment.

    Vehicular Cycling is the Dark Souls of cycling. Dutch cycling, or Practical Cycling as I’d prefer to call it, is more the Animal Crossing of cycling.

    It’s also worth noting that a profession where you spend every day in close proximity to cows is very common. Meanwhile, a profession that regularly has you in close proximity to sharks is way more niche. Make of this what you want.
