Anti-bike arguments aren’t just frustrating—they’re outdated, inaccurate, and often repeated without a shred of evidence.

    Cycling hurts my ass

      I realise you’re probably joking but I’ve always found this to be temporary. If you’re cycling regularly and the saddle pain lasts longer than a few weeks you should probably try a different saddle (I do only cycle about 60km a week so maybe not true if you’re doing much longer distances)

        No, I’m not joking. I even used the numbing cream to avoid the pain. Tried three or four different saddles - all were bad. Now I’m a proud motorcyclist.

        I second the vote for a recumbent. I switched to one in 2006 and never looked back. So comfy. You can go for a bike ride and have a lie down at the same time.

            But much more comfortable one and the softer suspension

It’s a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don’t be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
