i think probably urban highways are bad for like, human flourishing, because most people dont like them, and theyre especially a low value use of coastal areas, but *i* like them, so it irritates me when people shit on them. what if you could go FAST in a CITY?! is this not obviously great to everyone else
that’s not *you* going fast, thats a machine you happen to be inside going fast. very different creature
And a car isn’t a machine you happen to be inside?
a car is an extension of yourself, its an expression of your will, it has fucking haptic feedback, when youre driving fast and paying attention and in the zone a car is a body! (altho…extending this capability would very cool. car where you can feel the wind on your skin, the balance of forces, the distance to every object around you…)
people reblogging this post suggesting bikes are being extremely silly. have you like…driven a car, at 80 miles an hour? its nothing like ur fucking 30mph (tops!) bike
I’ve been on a (motorless) bicycle going at at least 45 miles per hour but I will admit that it wasn’t in a city.
Motorcycles. If you are looking for the direct physical presence of bicycles plus the motorized empowerment of cars you are thinking of motorcycles.
They’re great, like driving a rollercoaster.
