    this was my youth, we still fucking walked / biked everywhere, even in the deep south’s 100+ degree temps. people who think europe is an non-automotive utopia: this is a recent trend - it took time to build out the infrastructures (PLURAL) that replace driving everywhere, and even then it’s taking time to get the cars out of the cities.

    It’s something we have to work at together, and the vroom-vroom crowd who want to murder cyclists with their coal-rollers are very much in the way.
