So pathetic
Oh, he definitely is.
and sway like him, i thought that was trump behind him too.
There's over 150 miles of bike trail in the Des Moines Metro alone, fuck that idiot
And RAGBRAI. It only brings in tens of thousands of bike riders and is one of the most unique and recognizeable things Iowa is known for around the world.
This is literally the only thing I know Iowa for lol
RAGBRAI, corn, and Captain Kirk
And Radar O'Reilly
I dont believe you. The really smart man said iowa doesnt ride bikes
Terminally smartn't
I've met like three Iowans, all blue collar tradesmen, and one of them has literally biked from one side of the state to the other. From my very small sampling, I can confidently say that 1/3 of Iowans are avid bikers.
RAGBRAI
Since 1973, RAGBRAI, Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, has been a celebrated tradition, bringing thousands of cyclists and spectators together for an unforgettable journey across the state.
Dudes trying so hard to mimic Trump's cadence it's sad
The roughly infinity times worse aspect is them copying Trump's signature blown-out-asshole lip pursing. I went decades never seeing a human being do that. Those were happy times. The closest thing I can recall was the Guild Navigator from the Lynch Dune movie who was a horribly mutated creature, it sort of had the Trump Lips. Now people all over, the worst people, are doing it regularly.
Many such cases.
Clueless asshat doesn't even know about his own state, but he sure seems to like molesters!
IOWA WELL KNOWN BASTION OF HOG CRANKIN DONORCYCLES ARROOOO
Edit- but seriously why do they hate bike lanes? I thought even motorists appreciate them because it gets bikes off the main lanes and out of traffic? Or like, does he want bikes gone all together? I'm so confused.
They are associated with the left. It's "woke".
Bikes are very much left-wing because they support environmentalism, sustainability, equality, democracy, etc., while opposing waste, destruction, violence, privilege, grifting, etc.
Cars <---> Fascism.
You'd think "conservatives" would care about conservation.
That's not really a reason. Psychos celebrating losing infrastructure idk.
I don't expect crazy people to be reasonable
Nobody here ever said the car cult is rational.
Look for the earlier post in this community, titled What Queer People and Cyclists Know, for a good explanation.
+1 this, just sought it out after seeing this comment and very glad i did!
It's not some mystery. The car cult is an overtly fascist death cult controlled by evil corporations.
All the little manbabies doing their best to pass off their Trump impressions as how they actually speak. It's fucking pathetic.
The party of toxic masculinity
And 0 exercise
It's even funnier to think that masculine is driving a car.
Of course they don't ride bikes! That's exercise and exercise is clearly gay! /s
There is a motorcycle museum in Iowa that I am 99.999999% had bicycles in it because that’s part of the culture.
This guy stinks
Is he imitating Trump? That speech pattern
What is the case for being "pro ballroom"?
Over here I mention how amazingly woke and leftist bikes are, and their role in supercharging the feminist movement in the early 20th century. I also link to two good videos about it, by Rebecca Watson and Climate Town.
While I don't really have the stomach for some of the harsher Magneto reversals I've imagined, this is one I can get behind, that we declare automobiles as an instrument of fascism and tyranny that should be condemned for their contribution to global pollution and the climate crisis. And this can be used to justify closing half the streets to motor traffic and limiting gas-run Non-Passenger-Work-Vehicles, (id est SUVs) to a maximum off-highway speed of 25 mph.
This reninds me of the time I was driving through Des Moines on I-80 and I noticed a Harley Davidson dealership just off the highway. About a quarter mile later I saw a wrecked Harley on the side of the road, and what appeared to be two halves of a dead guy lying in the grass. Someone's test drive was undoubtedly exhilarating.
Is this why my Dad is so annoyed by bikers?
I thought that was weird, as I never heard him express that before. I kept wondering where the heck that came from.
Joe Mitchell is a worm. I guess this fuck stick has never heard of RAGBRAI.
I don't know what you guys are talking about, I think this video shows Donald Trump looks good for his age.
When he sways side to side, it means his diaper needs to be changed.
Literally the place of ragbrie 🤦♀️
Where car smashing the stage?
When humanity will start executing dumb shits like him and his followers? There has to be a way to get rid of anti science idiots
Iowa has a ton of bike infrastructure...wtf? I love iowas bike trails
Cars <---> Fascism
