Why did we need this again?

Yet again, Bicyclists prove that we don't need to listen to them. When they don't get their way, the revert to their true selves. They would rather destroy public property and endager the welfare of others, then deal with having to ride their little toys 1 block over on 9th.

What a bunch of whiney little POS.

Fuck them, I think I'm going to weld a cattle catcher on my car and mow as many down as possible. OR better yet, have a coffee can full of jelly bellies and throw handfulls at them as I pass them by. Hilarity results!!!

stupid

How many construction zones do these tracks go through? Perhaps it was gravity.

And again: Fuck You Eli Sanders.

But hey, at least your angry attacks on me accomplish something... Which is what, exactly?

DOUG, honey, When you comment, we win. Want to hurt me? Want to hurt Slog? Don't come back.

Oh yeah, Frank says get to work or he's gonna run your ass over with his $90,000 Porsche!

Ill take 2

And oh, yeah:

LEAVE ELI ALOOOOONNNNEE!

The protest bicycle ride last night was an example of peacefully spreading the message that the city ignored cyclists in the design of these tracks. I dare say most of us are not anti-streetcar. I like the streetcars that Portland has, I just wanted Seattle's streetcar to be implemented in a way that doesn't cause cyclists to shatter elbows, have their jaws wired shut, and suffer other severe injuries.

If the streetcar wasn't packed with riders, I would have gotten on and given it a try. I smiled and waved at the streetcar. It would have been better if the tracks were in the center of the road and not on the right hand side where drivers expect cyclists to be. At this point, we aren't going to rip up the tracks and we don't want to see anyone hurt, not even streetcar riders.

A potential derailment is NOT COOL, that could hurt lots of people. If you are pissed off, protest the right way, send a message in a way that doesn't risk hurting people.

Damn government cyclists.

This is is balls out basic wisdom. Kudos to ELI!

Personnally, I like to build up the enemy. I mean fuck, I've lived under an American government for my entire life, I've been brainwashed and conditioned to believing that's how to deal with the enemy.

I just hope some Blue Scholars show up tonight at happy hour. One of the most inspiring moments of life for me is to be in the presence of some grad or post-grad rapping. I mean, I came in through the bathroom window living with that Muslim chick for 3 years while she muscled her way thru to PHD in Logic. Too bad my 25 yr old immaturity at relationships had us fighting and pulling one another's hair at home, and showing up in Public looking miserably. Eh, mistakes make us stronger so "THEY" say.

hey Eli, Chris Crocker made the top 100 videos of the Year on yahoo!! You are so on the pulse of reporting!! More Important Crying to Look Forward Too!!

I'd be checking some packages at City Hall for some missing gear, if you get my drift.

I'm just thinking out loud here, but...perhaps cyclists can ride somewhere else?

If, however, it turns out that the SLUT has indeed gone vigilante against cyclists, then I want the world to know that I support a public transit death penalty. I am anti SLUT-violence.

the cyclists were not protesting the SLUT, dummies, they were trying to bring some goddamn awareness to other bikers that; there is a track here that can make you crash, cars are going to have to share MORE road cause bikes lost the side of the street theyre supposed to ride on, and why the phuck didnt Sound Transit listen/follow the design of other trolleys across the country (Portland) or world (Europe) and build something that bike friendly (like this town proclaims to be).

Seems pretty damn simple to me, duh!

But no, you phucking GENIUSES just jump right to the bikers, who, by the way, advertised their intention weeks prior. Yeah...thats like a suicide bomber wearing a t-shirt saying "I have A bomb".

Maybe some of the vaginaminds here would do that, but I doubt it was a contingent of cop watched cyclists.

Oh yeah...there were like, a schitton of Seattles finest down there "escorting" the bikers AFTER they found the bearings. Ys think if THEY thought it was them they'd just let em go rolling around willy-nilly? Not in this shock happy society.

My guess is that it was somebody wanting you all to THINK it was the bikers, cause theres no love lost in this town for them.

a-holes!

why wouldn't it? everything else in this goddamn city is falling apart.

I'm thinking that the rolling stock is probably already coming apart...

im going to go get drunk and ride my bicycle around now.

drinks at the whiskey bar at 630? see you there eccehomomassholes

eli, you're a regular sherlock holmes.

Man - you go out of town on business for a couple of days and look what happens....
