I posted this before looking for topics, but it kinda ended up being online support for general bicycle troubles.
Which is a good thing! Ask your questions about bicycles that are currently on your mind and we all try to help.

how do I put my bike on a bus's bike rack
the thought of trying to do this irl and holding back the bus driver gives me anxiety
You watch some videos. Most bike securing mechanism are rather simple. It basically boils down to holding one part of the bike in place to hold all of the bike in place.
So the only part you gotta figure out is which one it is for where you live
Just be sure to put the rack back up when you get off. And don't forget your bike when you get off. I've done both. Bus drivers are pretty chill if you're nice. They put up with assholes all day, every day. If you make the effort, they usually do to. And if they don't, they're probably assholes too, so who gives a shit if you accidentally annoyed them
Buses have fucking bike racks??

Some cities have practice racks installed places you can use!
