Lavish socialism for the entitled motorists, and "rugged individualism" for the transit riders.
We use public funds to clear the path for private machines, but tell other people to pull themselves up by their bootstraps through a three-foot snowbank.

We might be a small bike shop but selling over a million dollars worth of cargo bikes into our local community over these last few years is something we are incredibly proud of.
And inspired, by all those Calgary cargo bike families who are showing their communities a fun way to live.
Bravo, you!

“In Utrecht, the bike is not an end in itself. It is a means to create a liveable, healthy, climate-friendly city for all. The success can be admired in the inner city. It is lively and yet quiet at the same time. Here, it's noticeable: Cities aren't loud; only cars are, and they play no role here.”

12YO girl signed up to do “stand up comedy” at the talent show. 13YO boy decided to heckle her. Teacher started to tell the boy to leave her alone, but the 12YO comedian said “no, no, let him go, this is the closest he’s ever going to get to having a conversation with a girl.”
