Literally a blog post written by a public transit supporter.

Wow. Nice. Congestion charges literally go towards improving transit. Also government in Canada are already spending record amounts on building transit. If you need to go into a zone that would have a congestion charge in Canada (Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver) you would have at least a park and ride option.

This is awesome and confirms what I’ve been hoping, although it looks like the big dummy is being discontinued so I’ll probably have to move quick if I want one new. I have a couple of questions that it seems you’d have the answers to: Q) I think I know the answer from reading your blog, but if you didn’t own any cargo bike already, would you buy a Big Dummy or would you just put that money towards a Big Easy? Q) Is it possible to just ride around with the battery removed or flat? Is it pretty much the same bike plus the weight of the motor? Q) I already own nice (standard) paniers, can those be clipped onto the side of these cargo bikes, or do they have a different sort of rack. Q) Thoughts on riding an electric cargo bike in the snow/slush?

I used to live and bike in Philly on the bike share and it was pretty good back in 2015, have things just stalled out or something?

If that works for you great. Those little front wheels and cargo out front is just not the direction Im looking to go, I’m basically wanting a gravel bike with cargo carrying by default.

I just don’t think I want the default to be storing cargo out front, I like pulling stuff from behind.

Yeah the Big Dummy is the other closest thing I found. Got any thoughts on it vs the Mundo Lux?

I did the same thing when the pandemic was over, although I’m never really sure where to go in my neighborhood so in effect I hardly ever eat out

Sounds like just a few integration tests for the core use cases is the ticket, just like before. Real unfortunate, I would have bet that by now that there would be some startup that had made an automated user that you trained to do tests with a chrome extension or something.

This makes is sound like 10 years later nothing much has changed

I also remember reading some research which said that time spent flossing is better spent brushing.

Can’t help but wonder if the fillings I got as a kid which need to be replaced every few years were avoidable.

Cool, I can use this account too.
