If I escape with clown shoes and a pogo stick, are the cops going to chase me in the same manner? Asking for a friend

There's really only one way to find out. Be sure to report back to us!

I'd prefer it. Meet crime where it's at, you know?

But are fat tire bikes the best option? Or are they chasing bad guys in snow and sand? 😂

[-] _haha_oh_wow_@sh.itjust.works 12 points 11 months ago

Well, you see, they look cool.

At least you'll know that they're coming! LOL

So I outrun fat cops on bikes with my bike instead of fat cops on foot. Not really a problem since those fucks don't know how to ride a bike over anything but the flattest straightest roads.

So I outrun fat cops

Sure you do

There's a Fast and Furious movie in here somewhere...

[-] thefartographer@lemm.ee 11 points 11 months ago

I could get behind that. Me and my... family....

Unsurprisingly, the authorities have taken notice of this, and are now making use of e-bikes to catch crooks on e-bikes. Talk about fighting fire with fire.

But e-bikes aren't the fire..?

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
