Why are americans so obsessed with my country's dogshit infrastructure? It's a total crapshoot that desperately emphasizes bikes by making all other forms of transport shittier. The public transport is dogshit and road taxes are up the ass. I fucking hate living here and i fucking hate bicycles.

What are some examples of important buildings that were torn down for car infrastructure?

I know a lot of cities in the US had entire neighborhoods leveled for freeways.

>have a bike rack
>no girl is sitting on it
what even is the point?

I'm sick of the Mountain Bike craze, everyone involved is a scrawny sØy who watched Bern Peak one time and suddenly wants to waste their time and money on expensive upgrades for their inherently inefficient heavy framed sidewalk princesses. We need more content around actual, practical road biking and not this consoomer shit.

*whistles tune* *SNAP* ACK!

You don't need anything besides Coaster Brakes, anything else adds unnecessary cabling and controls to your handlebars
You don't need anything other than a single speed, anything else adds unnecessary complexity (derailleurs that can get clogged up and require more maintainance, extra cabling and controls you don't need, chain tensioners et al), and all this ultimately leads to a reduction in pedal efficiency by about 5-10% do to extra sprockets the chain needs to pass through, adding resistance, plus reduced pedal efficiency caused by chain deflection on every gear besided the middle, all so it feels marginally easier to go up slight inclines

This light rail line has been under construction for 15 years. The city chose light rail over subway because dumb counsellors believed it would be cheaper and faster to build.

The line service is fully grade separated and partially tunnnelled in the west half, then an express surface tramline in the East running down the middle of a busy thoroughfair.

After years of mishaps it looks like its finally coming online. Can these mixed use lines actually be succesful? Basically its a midtown subway, and also a suburban midtown tramway. Will it work, or will the city be revisiting how it operates in the future?

Which one is it? What plane was designed with the least amount of flaws? The 787 might be good now, but it had some battery flaws in the beginning that while did not lead to any deaths, did cause it to be grounded. Is it the 777? There has been any loses or grounding of it because of any design flaws that needed to be updated, correct? All loses were pilot error, or intentional, right?

I'm gonna sue Boeing.

I can't let these SUICIDE MACHINES keep destroying the society.
