Sick bike!
I wonder about the "this machine kills fascists" sticker, I've seen that on a lot of bikes and while I wholeheartedly support the message, I don't quite get how it relates to bikes? Bikes make really bad weapons ๐
Edit: I found the context https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_machine_kills_fascists
Car infrastructure creates the conditions that allows fascism to thrive

Seems like a good read, will check it before going to sleep!
Not supporting gas/auto/etc. companies that they use for power. Not doing long car commutes doubling that. Living in/aspiring to walkable, close-knit communities that function rather than exurbs thereby stripping more power away from them by building human links with your neighbors. Etc.
Edit: also I could run them over.
I see, I took it a lot more literally:)
