@GordonPlutsky @BarstoolBigCat @tankathon Gillette is a terrible experience. The new Revs stadium in Everett is going to be infinitely more fun and more convenient for most

@danarestia should also exclude the actual city and Hudson County

@BrandiKruse @CBSNews I think it's that you have a face for radio

@ImpunityCity @TransAlt have you ever heard how ugly your laugh sounds?

@TX_Liberty @swd2 @MLB go to your break room, gather 5-6 employees, say "the alphabet soup agenda has no place in baseball", record it, and post it back in this thread

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@emily_lip only morons are taking issue with that. it's riding two-abreast in a narrow lane when talking about a deadly crash that was caused by someone passing at excessive speed in a narrow, non-divided lane that's the issue. way too much overconfidence in the margin for error

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@TX_Liberty @swd2 @MLB Go to your office break room with at least 5-6 co-workers present, record yourself saying that, and post it back here. Unless you work construction, I doubt you will

@Nightcruzer1 @BikeBronx @UPS @NYC_DOT @NYPD114Pct @nyc311 "deep behind enemy lines" get a life

@OneIndefinite @FlightEmergency @AirNavRadar The road cycling is insanely good, especially compared to American roads. Too hot at this point, so it's just beachgoers/partiers, but still some really nice parts of the island to escape to away from the city

@chelsorscum @MikeyOver1 @alelalinde1 I counted 8 ok/good passes and 5 fuck ups

@Chris_Grosse Took my friends and family to A for my 30th birthday in the dead of January, would repeat

@urbanjerry2 @EricsRambles @StreetsblogNYC @Megmd514 That's my guess too. Hard disagree on no passing though. QBB is 1.5mi long and most of it is sloped. Everyone would get stuck behind someone going 4mph uphill. I'm fine with electrics going 25mph. It's when they go 35+ that it becomes a terrifying problem

@MaxLevene @NYCMayor @nyrr Holy fuck, came here to sarcastically reply this. 9+1 is ruining amateur racing in NYC

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@EricsRambles @StreetsblogNYC @Megmd514 Yes, it would make a lot of sense to switch bikes to the south roadway which is wider and to erect a hard barrier to divide east/west traffic. Put pedestrians on the north roadway. Could be solved with a mile of jersey barriers. Head-on collision is always my biggest fear on QBB

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@EricsRambles @StreetsblogNYC @Megmd514 They ended up very close to each other, so I suspect the collision may have been exactly head-on with all the energy being absorbed at once, as opposed to a glancing blow where they would've kept moving forward at some speed

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@GeoMRLSS @Crime_In_NYC It was near Queens. I would guess one if not both were attempting to pass in the middle of the lane

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@CubicalWizard @Crime_In_NYC believe it or not, that path used to also have a bidirectional pedestrian lane squeezed in there as well! Four lanes of traffic, often with not just illegal e-scooters but also gas-powered mopeds (those have been curtailed but are making a comeback)

[Matt Masi-Phelps @mphelpsm]

@BobaCyclist @bfurnas Would make a lot of sense to keep the two outer roadways unidirectional. Physically separate bikes from peds with jersey barriers, but keep eastbound traffic in the south lane and vice versa. The issue with this crash, and what I and other QBB riders fear, is head-on collisions
