My commuting partner and setup for the past couple of years
  • Bicycle commuter for about 10yrs now. Yes, the good mood dividend is wonderful! I do find a helmet essential, having been knocked over by a motorist. But I'm also conflicted by recent studies showing that helmeted cyclists are dehumanized by motorists. On the other hand, walking into a place with helmet in hand is a great conversation starter: " you rode here?!?" 😎

  • US evaluating what Wagner Group rebellion means for Ukraine war
  • Prigozhin's ability to successfully execute a coup may have been tenuous, but this will send a message to others that it is possible... Afterall, they did take Rostov-on-Don and got within 200km of Moscow... This will embolden others.

  • Can We Make Bicycles Sustainable Again?
  • i found the AI generated tldr that you originally posted to be a bit confusing, but the article itself was very interesting. Here is my summary of the major points:

    1. from a production standpoint, steel bikes have a smaller carbon footprint than aluminum or carbon frame bikes.
    2. conventional bikes use fewer consumables over their usable life than electric bikes.
    3. among electric bikes, cargo bikes use the most resources to run and maintain.

    to simplify this from a long-time bicycle commuters perspective: steel is real 😁
