Friday, September 29th, 2006

[Event flyer]

Way back in February I wrote about a new bike club in Portland called the Community Exchange Cycle Touring Club.

Your stolen bike is on Craigslist...now what?

Friday, September 29th, 2006

[Hey! That's my bike!]

The other day I got a phone call from a reader in distress. He found his wife's bike for sale on Craigslist. He was sure it was her bike, but he wasn't sure how to proceed. I didn't really have a good answer for him so I asked [...]

Scapegoating messengers and fixed-gear fallacies

Thursday, September 28th, 2006

Nearly every time someone complains about how bicyclists are unsafe, uncourteous, dangerous, and suicidal riders, they nearly always mention messengers. Or "those downtown messengers" as the cop put it who wrote me a ticket for rolling through a four-way stop intersection on a sleepy bike boulevard.
