There is a common myth that "cities are dangerous" while suburbanites don't even let their kids ride bikes in their own neighborhoods bc they're so dangerous bc of cars and everyone knows it.

Cities are safer than suburbs and they are lying to you about it.

@wvistheduck the problem solving we did on our bikes I'm sure contributed invaluably to my life as an adult. The bike route between my house and my best middle school friend's involved carrying your bike along a 8" radius pipe over the swampy edges of a Chesapeake Bay creek

@wvistheduck we made that work because the alternative was a giant hill with too many cars
