When somebody goes on and on for literally years about incredibly minor laws that cyclists break (like riding on the sidewalk...lol) they better have an absolutely squeaky clean record. I don’t even want to hear about a single parking ticket or an instance where their car tire went over a solid white line.
Then look away - that's gatekeeping.
If only he who is without sin may speak, then it's going to be dead silent.

Cyclists in Montreal is suing the city after hitting pothole ,breaking her noise and three teeth .cbc news
Since Quebec has a law exempting tires and suspension from damages citizens may claim for after hitting a pothole I guess the personal injury angle is the next step.

I am not sure advertising that you willfully choose to break the law is the best way to make your argument.
...Motorists complaining about no helmets and riding on the sidewalk need to get their baby blankets and have a nap. Bicycling responsibly is an exercise in risk mitigation. I do not wear a helmet and I have no intention of ever doing so; this is because my riding style is slow and measured. My personal risk analysis tells me that a helmet would be superfluous for me...
I have never been in an auto accident. My personal risk analysis tells me that a seatbelt is superfluous for me.

Meh, whatever. Go ahead and don't wear the helmet. You don't need to convince society of anything.

A serious contender to become Victoria's next Bicycle Mayor.

Or at the very least a member of the Bicycle Council or Bicycle Family.

some type of bike park has opened in view royal.
Probably better in the infrastructure thread rather than the Idiots On Bikes thread, but yeah they built a "pump track". I think it's been done for a little while but the Grand Opening is this Saturday.

You are invited to the Bike Track Grand Opening at View Royal Park on Sept 14, 1pm-3pm featuring: ribbon cutting, cake, and bike skills training provided by The Cycling Co.!
Oh, maybe this is the right thread.

A college student in Victoria is frustrated after purchasing an electric bike this summer and receiving two tickets resulting in about $600 in towing fees and fines, including one for not having insurance that doesn’t exist in B.C.
Jason McCracken, a student at Camosun, said he was ticketed for riding his e-bike without insurance, even though ICBC does not offer insurance for his “motor-assisted cycle.”

Wow, his 'risk assesment' is something else. It doesn't matter what speed you started at. Heck if you're standing still and fall and hit your head on concrete, you'll likely suffer a TBI.

When police stopped Evan Laine while he was riding his electric scooter on Finlayson Street to hand him a $600 ticket, the officer was unmoved by pleas to let it go with a warning.
Laine had only just bought the machine and hadn’t installed the pedals. As far as the officer was concerned, the absence of pedals meant the machine was a motor scooter and required a licence plate and insurance.

Yep yep yep. Whoever sold it to him, shouldn't have let him leave without pedals. The rules are super clear on this.

Let's hope it will be a huge success like the ubike program the mayor found in China.
