How is biking in NYC now versus non-Covid times?

Thanks y'all. Fortunately Consumer Reports and VA Tech both name the Brontrager Spectra Wavecell as one of their top picks for crash protection (low and high impact). Time will tell if ventilation...

Mouthport is the Specialized marketing term for the large horizontal opening that goes across the forehead. I think they were the first to produce a helmet with that design. Greatly helps with...

I hear what you are saying except that in the real world, we often hit our heads on curbs, rocks, tree roots, etc. so we can't assume the load will be evenly distributed. Plus, in this incident,...

I was able to secure my Exposure light to the helmet without any difficulties but your mileage may vary. I have 30 days to try the helmet out but of course the weather has been so friggin' cold I...

Yeah, I'm gonna throw the Prevail helmet out after I've notified Specialized in case they track these things. My noggin is too important to use a repaired helmet and to worry about $$. I'm just...

A couple of weeks ago, my helmet was hanging off my handlebar and the bike fell over on to the pavement. Imagine my shock when I saw how much damage the helmet sustained from a low impact, largely...

I live at the intersection of 4MR and Walter Reed so I routinely drive, walk, take the bus, and cycle through that intersection. It sucks for everyone. As a non-driver, I regularly avoid crossing...

I live on that corner. At a minimum, there needs to be a curb bump out to slow the drivers down when making a right hand turn. It's a dangerous intersection and I'm furious that left hand turn...

Hi, my BF just received the Wolvhammer from 45thNorth from REI but they were too small in a 48 (toes hit end) so now he is thinking he should be looking at 49s in order to ensure he can fit winter...

I've been to one of Bruce Deming's seminars and it was excellent. So is his book. He has helped a co-worker of mine recover damages when he was hit (broken bones involved).

One of the take aways...

Everyone who lives here knows the challenges...

Anybody have first hand knowledge if Ft Myer guards are checking for bike passes nowadays? Just checked their website and was directed to this horribly designed link that says only 1 year or 60 day...

This month the Library of Congress is featuring photos of old. You can see them by going to https://loc.gov and scrolling to the bottom of the page.

Me +1 will be there around 6:00. Thanks so much for organizing!

Whoa. I would call that a serious crash in my book. Hopefully all heals up quickly and well and that you don't need any serious dental work. I don't know that area so can't offer any advice. ...

And what pray tell is going thru the peds' minds when they are walking along the side of the PBL when there is a perfectly good sidewalk right there?! "Gee, I should be careful and walk along the...

Here’s a good 7 minute FHWA safety improvement video on the Lummi Nation Haxton Way Project where in Washington they installed separated bike/ped paths with automatic brightness solar lighting on a...

Cut and paste from another forum:

This Satuday, Nov. 4, DDOT representatives are holding a public meeting on what is officially known as the I Street SE Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Improvements...

Thanks for posting this. I've never noticed the ground level barrier even though I've ridden past a million times. I could easily see myself passing through the gate if it were open. Hopefully...

I've seen the orange and green bikes in Pentagon City and a couple of orange bikes in Shirlington which I presume is outside of the approved zone. If they circulate a lot I think they are a good...

This is what Bruce Deming always advocates. Unfortunately the police may or may not (usually the latter) not ticket the driver.

FYI: unit for rent in my complex. We are located right on the W&OD! 15 minute shuttle ride to Pentagon City metro if you don't want to ride. Cabi station also located next to property. Walkable...

Interesting article in the NYTimes about Utrecht's biking infrastructure expansion.
