Be the change you want to see
Quit whining and buy me a bike
get a job ya bum
Be the change you want to see and buy me a bike. The government and fossil fuels industry won't make changes to the infrastructure that enables and protects their investments until they see a critical mass of unarmed cyclists, at which point they'll throw their hands up in the air with a wimpy utterance, "Aww man! Shucks!", press a button, and poof! Bike lanes everywhere and SUVs 2/3rds their current size. People will magically work within 5 miles of their home and no need or service will be further than that either.
So quit your winning, quit being a bum, be the change you want to see and buy me an e-bike!
