This Place Is For Bikes




This is kind of old news in Colorado, but word travels slow sometimes when you're dealing with logic this revolutionary. Could be something about insanity warping space time.

Lube our brains up for the crazy-fucking, Denver Post. It's ok, we like it rough:

Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes is warning voters that Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper's policies, particularly his efforts to boost bike riding, are "converting Denver into a United Nations community."
"This is all very well-disguised, but it will be exposed," Maes told about 50 supporters who showed up at a campaign rally last week in Centennial.

Maes said in a later interview that he once thought the mayor's efforts to promote cycling and other environmental initiatives were harmless and well-meaning. Now he realizes "that's exactly the attitude they want you to have."

"This is bigger than it looks like on the surface, and it could threaten our personal freedoms," Maes said.

He added: "These aren't just warm, fuzzy ideas from the mayor. These are very specific strategies that are dictated to us by this United Nations program that mayors have signed on to."
Did I mention these guys are probably going to win a lot of seats next month?  It's ok, we had a good run with the whole reasonable democracy thing. No regrets. No regrets.

Speaking of really old news, at least we'll always have this old gem "This place is for bikes." I haven't seen this in years, and by god, it's still feels like the first time. This whole fucking country is for bikes.
