    all this talk of donorcycles and shit. i ride, my life isn't worth less than a car driver. sure, it's more dangerous, but life is dangerous and i choose to make my own decisions about where i draw that line. i agree about having to opt out of organ donation being ideal and it saddens me the attitude people have towards people who ride, saying they will end up donating organs instead of just… everybody who dies and has in tact organs? the worst motorcycle accident i ever witnessed was 100% the fault of an SUV who nearly killed 2 riders and yet THEY are the donorcycles? no, they're victims of an infrastructure that is wildly unsafe and alienated. bikes might be a luxury in the US but bikes are much more efficient and a better solution than cars any day of the week, (i'd still prefer trains) so really fuck cars, if anything.
