The new Paris groove. What’s possible when you have the space.
HT @PatroxYoutube @PariSansBagnole for the great video #Paris
@BrentToderian I'd really rather not have daredevils whizzing around me as I ride to work.
@BrentToderian Not a good look. As irresponsible as a speeding motorcyclist or car. A clear danger to other cyclists and pedestrians.
@BrentToderian This is how I think I look when I ride my unicycle to the office
@BrentToderian The views expressed in this thread shows what we have become as a society, why be critical of kids keeping fit & learning to do stunts when we already know the alternative for many is violence & drugs.. look at evidence,.How many pedestrians have cyclists killed in 2020
@BrentToderian I think this is best done in private land not public roads. New cyclists will be scared stupid, there’s more potential for accidents and it just makes cycling look like an adolescent hobby rather than a useful carbon-free way to get around, plus a leisure pursuit for everyone.
@BrentToderian No matter how much space I have I’ll still never be able to wheelie like those kids.
@BrentToderian It's great that there's so much space to ride a bike, but it's no joke when a pedestrian gets hit by a cyclist. It's all fun and games until somebody breaks a femur.
@BrentToderian the fun is about reclaiming space, not owning it youtube.com/watch?v=t-FZ7R…
@BrentToderian What's possible when you have no space
@BrentToderian I'm not convinced that's the most positive example of people using car-free space. It's fairly irresponsible, & likely to be off-putting/intimidating for others. If the test is that all ages from 8 to 80yrs old should feel it's safe to cycle then that behaviour makes it a fail 👎🏼
@BrentToderian We're always seen as unsavory types whenever we have fun. Sadly, your thread sheds light on this. However, on the plus side, it's lovely to see Paris in this light! No G7 Taxis to dodge!
@BrentToderian Yeah, kinda looks like a dickbot.
@BrentToderian @Tiksmum Marvelous. I doubt the people in the suburbs share your enthusiasm, though.
@BrentToderian Nicht gut. Dieses Verhalten gefährdet andere Verkehrsteilnehmer!!
@BrentToderian @parents4future made my day. Fahrrad ist so viel mehr als ein Fortbewegungsmittel! #IWantToRideMyBicycle
@BrentToderian And that irresponsibility will make us lose the space gained. Some people just don’t get it. I almost got knocked out by one of those in London the other day. It’s really a shame.
@BrentToderian Love this, but v uncomfortable with the language / sentiment.
@BrentToderian @JanMencwel to chyba raczej antyreklama. Koronnym argumentem fanów samochodozy są właśnie bandy rowerowych wariatów, którzy za nic mają przepisy i BRD...
@BrentToderian Cet idiot ne semble pas être un bon modèle @Anne_Hidalgo @AlmeidaPP_ @MADRID. Qu'il aille dans le couloir de sa maison ou dans un cirque. #FelizDía #alTrabajoEnBici y #AlColegioEnBici
