    You can take bikes on buses in Antananarivo? Wait. What? I've lived here for 12 years and I never knew that YOU CAN TAKE BIKES ON BUSES IN ANTANANARIVO!!!

  2. WATCH: Whether you love cars or hate cars, you should watch this new video and better understand the truth about the real costs & consequences of too many cars in our cities, and the car dependency many of us live in. You might find it hard to watch, but watch it to the end anyway. Via #NotJustBikes

    Every Reason to Hate Cars

  3. Kleiner Reminder an das "Geometrieproblem" von Autos:
    Die Karren nehmen einfach zu viel Platz weg. Egal ob stehend oder in Bewegung.

    Wenn wir bessere Städte wollen, müssen wir das Autovirus bekämpfen.

  4. Gute Laune gefällig?

    Schaut dieses verdammt gute und kurzweilige Video, ladet Euch das Dokument runter und investiert ein paar Minuten, da mal drüber zu schauen und dann fragt Euch: Warum ist meine Stadt immer noch so Scheiße? Und warum sollte das so bleiben?

  5. Everyone acknowledges that roads only work as a network.

    The same can, and should be said, about public transit, about bike infrastructure, about sidewalks.

  6. My bike trailer met a colleague at the grocery store.

    It's rare to see signs of active, utilitarian, middle-class mobility in Antananarivo.

  7. Einordnung:

    "Leute fahren in die Stadt, weil sie das Gefühl haben, das sei das, was sie tun müssten."

    "Der überwiegende Teil des Autoverkehrs am Wochenende kommt von Leuten, die shoppen wollen. Was ihnen das ermöglicht, ist dieses Parkhaus für 400 Autos. Dies ist ein Lehrbuchbeispiel für eine Parkmöglichkeit, die Autoverkehr überhaupt erst erzeugt."

  8. It was a complicated day for logistics. Note the motorcycle helmet in the bike bag in the back of the taxi with my folding bike.

    Honestly, I don't know how some car-free and low-car people get by without folding bikes.

  9. Crap! A Burley Travoy isn't supposed to fold this way. Any advice on how to repair this?

    NB: Replacement parts will be hard to get in Madagascar, but good mechanics are plentiful.

  10. Similar to how @notjustbikes showed US regulation lead to more SUVs and trucks, Australia has tax incentives with similar results:

    > For vehicles that can carry less than one tonne or seat less than nine people, the instant asset write-off limit is smaller – capped at $64,741 in the 2022-23 financial year.

    > However, a $150,000 threshold applies for vehicles that can carry more than one tonne or seat nine or more people, regardless of whether such a high payload carrying capacity is required by the business.

    > Additionally, heavy vehicles such as utes, vans and 4WDs, which can carry more than one tonne, are exempt from fringe benefits tax.
