    Sounds like actual good proper bicycle friendly infrastructure, awesome!

    Honestly, I’m more of a BMX flatland rider, so my bike ain’t gonna pass any of those checks, no brakes (flatlander’s choice, my shoes are my brakes), no reflectors, no lights, no kickstand, no chainguard…

    In BMX flatland, all that stuff is just extra weight and more parts to break. But also, flatland bikes aren’t exactly intended for everyday road transportation.

    Bikes meant for regular road use really should have all those parts, plus even a mirror for an extra point or two of safety.
