A person riding a bicycle modified to carry a large, heavy load. The cargo container is enclosed by a large repurposed sack of 'Indian Parboiled Rice,' as indicated by the text and image on the sack. The scene is set on a busy urban street with cars, pedestrians, and a billboard in the background.

A common "cargo bike" modification in Madagascar. From 2017.

@lightweight These videos are great. Last night I watched his previous video on how badly Google Maps works in the Netherlands for cycle commuters, because of its many in-built car biases.

One point that struck me was his point that separated cycle lanes are really car infrastructure, not bike […]

One of my favourite YouTube accounts is #NotJustBikes, and his latest video should be required viewing for anyone who lives in an even slightly urbanised area. #cars #anticar www.youtube.com/watch?v=umgi...

The Universal Law Of Cities — The more car-friendly a place is, the shittier it is to be there.

Via #NotJustBikes. Watch his new video below.

WATCH: Whether you love cars or hate cars, you should watch this new video and better understand the truth about the real costs & consequences of too many cars in our cities, and the car dependency many of us live in. You might find it hard to watch, but watch it to the end anyway. Via #NotJustBikes

I'm torn between finishing the big video from #notjustbikes, and watching more choujinki #metalder

I knew that cars were really bad for everyone, but this video shows that I’d seriously underestimated the actual and extensive harm they cause. Please watch.

I might start to spam this video to every possible online conversation it makes any sense. #NotJustBikes #WarOnCars

Not Just Bikes — Every Reason to Hate Cars "While some people benefit from automobility, nearly everyone—whether or not they drive—is harmed by it." This video is a summary of all the ways that cars harm cities, the environment, and people’s lives.

I've been waiting for a good video like this that covers off all reasons why cars suck. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ya gotta teach the people about MAMILs though. Most people dont know who they are. People riding bikes aren’t a problem, but MAMILs certainly are. I would argue people’s IQs arent dropping, but they are definitely uninformed. Here’s a vid: youtu.be/pRPduRHBhHI?... #notjustbikes

Cannot emphasize enough how @nebula.tv is killing it. If you enjoy learning about stuff and also #travel and #transportation shows, try #Nebula.

Our relatively low density cities have managed to build top class public transit and public infrastructure for people, not cars, to travel. And we're light weights compared to the systems in Europe featured on the #NotJustBikes YouTubes (interviewed here:
bsky.app/profile/bren... )

WATCH: This is STILL one of the toughest truths for some to accept, but one of the most IMPORTANT — car-dependent suburbia is HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED by downtowns and urban areas!

Watch this excellent video by #NotJustBikes with #Urban3 & @strongtowns.bsky.social.

PLEASE SHARE it as much as possible.

WATCH: If you STILL don’t understand how car-dependent suburbia is HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED by downtown and all the urban parts of your city, watch this EXCELLENT video by #NotJustBikes with #Urban3 & @strongtowns.bsky.social. And PLEASE SHARE it as much as possible.

I’ve sent it to a LOT of politicians.

LISTEN: How to achieve better cities IN PRACTICE, and why it’s so important to communicate better, be less boring, and call out lies & disinformation about better city-building. @brenttoderian.bsky.social recorded this popular podcast with Jason from #NotJustBikes a few weeks before our launch.

If you love cities and public transit, you might love this new thing by Jason from #NotJustBikes on youtube, and the @theurbanistagenda.com podcast (I was a recent guest on that). It’s called “Day Pass” and he spends a day in different global cities trying to ride ALL the transit.

No, not just not just bikes.
But yes, definitely not just bikes.

Day Pass Jason Slaughter, creator of Not Just Bikes, takes on a new challenge. Armed with a day pass and love of public transit, he visits a new city each episode with one goal: explore the city while also riding as much public transit as possible.

Fabulous first video.
Really like the format and pace.
Look forward to more.

If you haven’t LISTENED to this yet & you care about how to ACTUALLY make cities better, this might be the truth-telling interview you’ve been waiting for. Jason from #NotJustBikes interviews @brenttoderian.bsky.social & boy do they get real and go deep on what works AND DOESN’T WORK.

Please share.

Day Pass — Day Pass — Official Trailer How much can you do with a single day pass before midnight? Jason Slaughter, creator of Not Just Bikes, takes on the challenge. Premieres February 18.

Jason from Not Just Bikes has a new show premiering February 18th: Day Pass nebula.tv/videos/daypa... #NotJustBikes

looking forward to Nebula-exclusive thing forthcoming from that #NotJustBikes guy Jason Slaughter

I have for some time complained about Google Maps distorting our view of reality and I'm glad to see #NotJustBikes do a deep dive. I often see it embedded in council and other official pages and I think we need our councils to actively make a move away from it.

It is dumbfounding how imbecile @GoogleMaps deals with anything not Amsterdam. This colonization by the car-retarded, and I want to punch these people. Amazing channel #NotJustBikes and I live maybe a few hundred meter from where he lives?

I love that the Google Maps photo for this location is also a couple of bikes.

A person standing beside a black Trek mountain bike on a city street, wearing a blue polo shirt, black gloves, and a white bicycle helmet. In the background, large white oil storage tanks and a road with passing vehicles are visible under a cloudy sky.

11 years ago I used to commute by this oil depot every day, which may explain the antenna growing out of my head.

An internet of shit watch displaying an alert from the Castbox application letting me know that there is a new Urbanist Agenda podcast about "Toronto's Crack-Smoking Mayor (w/ Bobby Brococoli). Magical times. And as always, FTP.

Just got an alert on my bloody wristwatch about a podcast.

Catching up on some older #NotJustBikes videos... This one was thoroughly depressing. Pleasant that I live in a place where public transport is pretty good, but depressing to see... well, the power of conservatism, I suppose. The whole #fediverse vs […]
