I cannot believe the average person spends over 2,600€ on an ebike. Mine was a bit over 1,100€ and I've put 3,200km on it in a year. Good ebikes shouldn't have to cost an arm and a leg.

Interesting ratings, some of these seem more progress-based than who has the best overall infrastructure. That said, I'm really happy to see cities like Paris and Manhattan on here, who have made big strides to work on being better about micromobility and pedestrian safety. The more large cities deploy protected bike lanes, the more smaller cities and towns will get inspired and follow them.

Especially cities/towns that forbid their DOTs from traveling to transit conferences to hear how cities like Montreal and Vancouver pulled off their rail and bike infrastructure on a lower budget.

Oh yeah, no worries buying from the women's section. They get all the fun clothes that guys can also look cute as hell in. One of my buddies got some shortalls from the women's section and looks great.

Chubbies has some shorts that are currently out of stock, but come in many sizes and colors. https://www.chubbiesshorts.com/products/the-khakinators-2-originals?Size=L

I ended up going with some shorts from Huckleberry just to test the waters and have something immediately, I found 5" dark green chinos, not unlike the model above. Unfortunately no D-ring closure, but still close.

Thank you for the tips and terminology! I'll keep up the hunt for good tops to pair with these shorts.

I ordered some 5" from https://huckberry.com/store/flint-and-tinder/category/p/84733-365-short-5

But I absolutely want to slut it up with some 2" or 3", which sounds like a lot of fun. :D

I think you might have hooked me up. I might need to wait on a restock, but the two inch inseam ones are awfully close to what I was looking for. The greens are a little longer, but not by much :)

I'll look into that, thank you!

Universities are like little cities. I love all the different styles they have :)

Thank you!

I think we are going to have a long, slow, painful recovery where people clutch at their crystals and misinformation while terrible diseases like polio, whooping cough, and measles come roaring back. I think we will get back to where we were in 2010, someday. It's just sad that something so completely unnecessary is going to cause heartache and lasting damage for whole generations of people.

We'll get there, someday. I do hope we can tone down light pollution significantly in the coming years, and come up with something other than massive LEO constellations so that the night sky is clearer. We need clear skies for our space telescopes and creatures that need the night sky to navigate.

It also shows the strength and resilience of an area. Places like that have weathered many booms and busts. It's particularly interesting when one building has many styles, having been continuously occupied for hundreds of years. Or in some cases, even longer.

I want a conversation pit!
