vividspecterWhy is the right at war with cyclists? We’re not ‘wokerati’ – we’re just trying to get around | Zoe Williams
I feel like this article is really missing out the part where oil interests are intentionally funding hatred of other modes of transportation. The PragerU video on “The War on Cars” is a good example. They are funded by oil companies, and this is public information that is easy to find. And they use that platform to prevent other modes of transportation from being safe or viable.
Bicycling industry lobbyists need to step up their game
I’ve been to the Pacific Cycle corporate headquarters, the current owner of well-known brands like Mongoose, Schwinn, GT, and Rioadmaster, supplier of most of the bicycle-shaped objects sold by mass-retailers like Walmart and Target.
That’s right, into the very belly of Big Bike!
And, uhh, they’re not very big. I’ll bet more people work at the Toyota dealership just down the highway. That is to say, bicycle industry lobbyists don’t stand a chance against automobile lobbyists.
