Pink on Pink in London
Sometimes the photography gods just hand you a gift, and this was one of those moments. I was walking through central London when I spotted this woman standing at the kerb in a pink striped shirt — and directly behind her, as if placed there by a set designer with a very specific sense of humour, sat one of London’s famously over-the-top pedicabs, absolutely dripping in hot pink and white faux fur.
The colour match was uncanny. She had no idea, of course.

For someone in the market for a cheap-ish electric #pedicab, this might be serviceable. The build quality of Six Three Zero bikes is typically poor; I’ve seen a number of them rusted out & abandoned around town. They also fail to mention any UL qualifications for the motor or battery. And it’s “on sale” at $2999 with a regular retail of $4999. If you have that much cash to spend, a Tern bike is a much better value. https://electrek.co/2024/04/18/sixthreezero-electric-rickshaw-review-this-e-bike-can-carry-an-entire-family/ #CargoBike #BikeTooter

Weird that both town officials and #pedicab companies say they didn’t know that students on #J1 visas can’t be pedicab drivers. It’s been right at the top of the list of prohibited jobs for years. I thought the reg was just ignored in the spirit of #Provincetown as the “Wild West of the East.” #BikeTooter https://provincetownindependent.org/featured/2023/07/12/5-students-are-sent-home-for-visa-violations-2/

CW: Story about a racist pedicab passenger in 2001.
https://jmb.mx/blog/2001/10/21/from-the-jmbzine-vault-october-21-2001/
Sharing this post from my blog archives from October 2001, from my days as a #Pedicab driver in #Austin, Texas, when I encountered an aggressively pro-war racist as a passenger.

It feels like I am living in the #future talking to the computer in my #car having it spit out debugging information over speech while I drive. Then pull into a parking spot and make minor changes to the code.
I would have loved something like this when I was a #pedicab driver. Be able to play very local music for my passengers while I take them through the city.
Based on my testing I should be able to use this from Yonkers down to every borough in NYC, and a lot of Long Island and NJ. -
Well, it was a rainy and foggy New Year’s Eve here in Provincetown. A few hardy souls came out to join in the Light Bright Bike Ride and we had lots of spectators along the way! 🥳 Happy New Year! #BikeTooter #provincetown #cargobike #pedicab #bikeride #newyearseve

This post is from the JMBzine Blog Vault, which means it is a very old blog post that I wrote at a very different time of my life. My views on religion, politics, and many other subjects have drastically changed over the years, so please bear this in mind when reading this post. – I generally do not edit my past writings, except to fix obvious spelling issues, or to fix broken links (most often replacing with links to archive.org). I do add some more recent editorial updates, which are shown in blue and italicized, along with dates.

Yesterday was a very, very, very good day pedi-cabing. Definitely my best money day so far.
However, I had something happen that really hit me hard. I had a couple that wanted a ride to a downtown hotel. When we got to our destination, the girl went in to get change from the valet while the guy stayed out with me. He noticed my button “No to war: No to Racism” and said, “well, I don’t know about that button. The racism thing is ok, I mean I hate everyone the same but the war (part) I don’t agree with.” He then went on to explain that he is a soldier from Ft. Hood (nearby in Killeen, TX) and that he thinks we ought to “kill all of those sandn*****s and let God sort them out.”
I didn’t know what to say. I have been trying to control my anger since the last time I went off on a racist bigot who was a passenger, so all I said was “well, I respect you think war is a good idea, but for me, my religious beliefs don’t support violence of any kind.”
After I left I was pretty upset. I was taught to respect all servicemen. Even now as a pacifist, I still do my best to honor and respect those who chose to fight. To me, they are doing what their consciences say is right and are willing to die for their beliefs. Since I also strive to live and die for my convictions, I have to respect those who are willing to do the same, even if they see things differently.
2023 Update: I’m still opposed to war, but wouldn’t describe myself as a pacifist either, for reasons to complicated to discuss here.
However, this bigot shook me to the core. I later couldn’t help but wonder if that was what Timothy McVeigh might have said before he went to fight in Desert Storm. What in the **** is going on with the US military?! I feel like calling up the CO at Ft. Hood and asking him where this soldier got this hate philosophy and if they’re going to actually let him go over to Afghanistan. How can the American people have confidence in American GI’s to not target civilians when folks like this are given guns and the authority to use them? I know most soldiers are not racists, but I don’t understand how such a blatant one is still in the service.
2023 Update: I was rather naive in 2001 about the extent and depth of racism in the military, including from the brass.
I would love to hear any responses to anyone in the service… I will gladly publish your thoughts here. I want to know if what I experienced is common or is a fluke instance and is not representative of those who serve.
2023 Update: I think what jumps out at me now in re-reading this, is how big of a role that Fort Hood (today Fort Cavazos) would play in my life in the years to come, both in peace activism, but also in my legal practice.
