Suggesting people should bike isn't ableist, or, at least, is no more ableist than suggesting people should drive.
Thank you for listening to this PSA.

I have a cousin with epilepsy who can't drive within 6 months of an event. Bikes seem like a reasonable compromise, but I think he just gets people to drive him.
I think even with dutch style infrastructure and a tricycle this'd seem like a dangerous game to play to me. I think public transport would be optimal here.
the no driving for epileptics is probably an insurance thing because of the property damage. a trike or something is safer for everybody especially if that guy wears a helmet.
A large swath of epileptics can feel seizures coming, so bikes are perfect because you can just dismount before it starts. Speaking from experience, biking makes my life so much easier and ebikes have allowed me to get around without having to depend on others for rides or use my town's limited and unreliable public transit. Also the 6 month thing is state law. Radpower also just released its first electric trike for people concerned about stability on ebikes.
hey that's great
yeah i mean i assume it was motivated by some misguided lib shit

Why would you buy something that costs tens of thousands of dollars that you can't use?! As for thefts, in my area more apartments/rental places have indoor bike storage which I really appreciate.

too bad he lives in Nashville
Nashville or like suburbs just outside of Nashville? Your cousin could very well be a friend of mine.
Not sure. We don't keep in touch that much. I think he lives in East Nashville these days.
