Not polished yet: https://close.city/https://vxtwitter.com/NatMakesMaps/status/1776259750310912335It's an interactive map to show the best places for transportation and walkability. The default is Grocery + Library which makes the map really really narrowly defined and there's no real way to weight the options, so I recommend disabling Library and/or using just one at a time. But it does an incredible job of highlighting walkability and would make a great tool for deciding where to develop or move
>>1990047I heard recently that it's now cool to be dumb as bricks, so much so that people now avoid using grammar and find it offensive.You're not the first one i've seen wearing their stupidity as a badge of pride.I'm personally embarrassed by how little I read.
>>1990405>decades agohahahaha>99.99% of all books ever written are availablehahahahahahaha you are a moron
>>1993632>it's not library but let's call it librarySmall libraries are dead, chud, deal with it. I can understand national level library that keep really rare books (though those should be all scanned and made net available too). But small municipal libraries? You don't find anything beyond censored ESG slop there. You would be 9000% better if you donwnlaod these books from the net.
>>1990219Currently in hospital recovering surgery after cager attack. Not the first time. And by far not the first injury or crash caused by cager attack. Ironically my father, terminally cageoid himself, just weeks before my recent incident, broke a leg and ankle in a cager attack. My grannie, cager herself, just months before that, got her car flattened by a lorry. Miraculously survived. My aunt, survivor of a prior stroke, was riding shotgun when hit by a speeding cager loosing control, lots of injury and pain for her.And none of this tells of all the indirect collateral damage motorists cause to society and environment. Health, climate, flora and fauna, stress, obesity, loss of empathy, messed up markets for housing and crippled cities to name just a few.Sure, in general and in most peoples experience the automobile is a very useful, empowering and convenient technology, for those who aren't ashamed to be dependent on crutches like a cripple. This experience tho can suddenly and drastically shift. It does so for few, maybe it wont for Anon. But if it does it's usually tragic.
>>1990432Maybe the correlation noted here has more to do with the similarities if not identity of the traits of motorists and certain people ? You know, blatant disregsrd, even disdain for fellow man, laziness and low drive, mental weakness that rivals that of the body, total lack of responsibility, raging consumerism and terminal addiction to comfort and the easy way ... to name a few.

>>1993711there is an inbetween of a $10 amazon rack and a $400 ti tubus rack. how do you carry anything bulky? what if you have to carry a lot of stuff? panniers are great and don't have to cost an exorbitant amount of money, same with racks.
>frontcamping stuff>middletools, snacks, etc>seatpostclothesit was a 7 day trip
>>1993764That thing costs more than a Tubus though.
>>1992738Went from rack & panniers to rack & picrel on the daily recently. No pics of install bc currently in hospital bc murdercage attack.Reasoning: Never had, wanted to try next after trying several options for several years each. The weight penalty (together both are 2,6 kg) is not an issue on the daily. They are neat and can not be taken by some lowlife. When not in use and folded ultra aero. So no need to take off the bike and store when not in use to avoid theft and aero penalty. Also my panniers tend to accumulate grit from the road and sometimes water inside, as such I put delicate things to go inside seperately anyways. So the folding baskets requirement to pack things water and grime tight isn't exclusive to it.
A thread to discuss bike touring - bikes, routes, gear, stories, etc.
>>1993579beautiful, thanks for sharing herr anonym , you actually pick some decent routes. Are these all recorded tracks? remind me how you charge your stuff (including drone?) without solar? I would never share the places where I camp.I like that yellow and light blue tracks, I can see that you feel the calling of the Central and eastern europe, but I hope this summer you will fell that beautiful loire valley and bretagne and cantabrian coast.Also you kinda doxed yourself, be careful or you'll have the deutsche rentenversicherung inquiring about the authenticity of your autism diagnosis.
>>1993597>>1993597>Are these all recorded tracks?Almost all of them, except for the small trip to Vienna across Czechia and back, and the trip to the northernmost point of Denmark. Lost the gpx files, which were only stored on my Garmin back then, in a bad accident way back. Had to reconstruct the tracks based on memory and pictures. They should be fairly precise though.>remind me how you charge your stuff (including drone?) without solar?Four power banks and and a dynamo hub USB charger. No drones. Enough for over a week without accomodation. I use my phone a lot.>but I hope this summer you will fell that beautiful loire valley and bretagne and cantabrian coast.I already went through Brittany on one of my trips to the British Isles, which is not on the map yet. I like France a lot, probably my favorite country outside of Eastern Europe and the Balkans. But yeah, Iberia really needs some love along with Scandinavia. I am not particularly fond of the latter though, and Spain/Portugal aren't really summer destinations for bike touring. Hate the mosquitoes in summer anyway. I sleep outside a lot. >Also you kinda doxed yourselfNah. The starting and end points you're probably talking about are obviously not accurate at all.

Supertrain, from 1979. A broad-gauge atomic-powered luxury train, the show was trying to be "Love Boat" on rails. It was pretty awful. You can find some of the episodes on Youtube.
>>1992471Is it? Was there any transit in it at all?
>>1988913Mexico city had a pretty large tram system which actually worked as a sort of interurban system between the city and outlying towns, which nowadays are completely grown together.But I meant because mexican films from the 40s and 50s were shot largely on sound stages and never showed trams or much realistic city life.
That the track is narrower? That it's elevated (chicago already has elevated trains)?
>>1991721she'll be alright. just pop a purple and blue filter on it, add a few palmtree clipart jpegs and use a generic supermarket Muzak clip as background music

My maglev proposal for China.What do you think?
nah too expensive
I legitimately do not understand the preoccupation some people on this board have with chinese maglev, waco to branson maglev, ougadougou to bujumburi maglev, or any other such irrelevant speculations, and it makes me think the "chang" shitposter might be on to something. Literally what is so boring about the NEC, western europe, taiwan, peninsular malaysia, or japan, that makes these other (irrelevant) places so worthy of your attention? Other than the fact that you see them as probable future colonies for the CCB-Tencent corporation's future workforce, but if that were the case you'd be targeting Taiwan too so it just doesn't make any sense
I don't understand the appeal, especially when they already have an impressive HSR network. The benefits of maglev compared against HSR are very minimal. Maglev pretty much exists as gadgetporn.

What's the most retarded bad faith argument against improving transit and walkability you've come across?I'll start with "But but but, AMERICA'S TOO BIG"
>>1989749you faggots really need to lurk before posting, it's painful. Learn to use the website.
>>1989347Admittedly this was about 10-15 years ago, it was a family trip when I was a kid
Carcels flying off the rails in this thread and giving proof of every bad faith argument against better transit systems
>>1993571My city has a patchwork bicycle path network and honestly I don't find it too bad, I have certain routes I know that get me to work or the shops and I've got the main routes mapped out in my head. I can stay off main roads, and although there is a compromise of extra turns/ getting on and off of shared paths and perhaps having to slow down in parks it's still quite good, crucially it gets me where I need to be without too much danger.
>>1993301Fair, I agree it only takes that 1/100 experience of a schizo to turn you off it, and most people (especially women) feel more threatened by that stuff.I also find the same that high traffic/ volume usually means less schizos. Really the schizos have little to do all day so I think them hopping on a train or bus is just something for them to do.
Something nice to him.
>>1993806fucking hell kill me
America has globally, objectively low commute times. And generally the more public transit usage and walking there is the longer the commute.
>>1993653I think you're confused, urbanism is all about ethnic cleansing and eugenics. You're on the same team here bud. Friendly fire. Blue on blue.
>>1993668Eh, I just want to be able to use EITHER method without being subject to government overreach, but the huge number of illegals is overloading public services including the road network and public transport. Making this possible would mean spending tax payers money on the citizens for once, instead of throwing it down the drain on vanity projects and foreign wars. We should be worrying about our own borders, not Ukraine’s. I like what Vivek Ramaswamy said about how we can build a better world by focusing on ourselves rather than flying off to globalist conferences

>>1993779i really do prefer loading the front before the rear, but the boxes were just too bulky to fit between the bars. i'm just really clumsy and forgetful. it took me a solid month to adjust to riding clipless before i could complete a ride without failing to unclip and falling. falling sucks, accidents happen. just hopefully harmless non-fatal ones.
Does it still count as 1 (one) ride if I change bikes inbetween? Thinking about doing a century tomorrow
