Are bikers getting pulled over for this? It’s not exactly a big policing issue.

It is! I work in Westchester and my family is all in Queens, so trying to not stray too, too far.

Reply to Rent or buy in Fairfield County, CT? by emalways
Anybody buying at current inventory levels has a very high tolerance for risk.
I'm not a gambling man, renting is the obvious choice to me.

My work is actually in Westchester and family is in Queens, so I'm going the other way. That's why Newtown/Southbury is probably as far as we'll go.

Why do you object to this?

I also do this now. If it’s safe to go, I go.

I mean, sometimes you have to go for the lowest of the low hanging fruit and will take what we can get, but not seeing anything substantive here to meaningfully imporve road conditions.

Neither. I have small kids so I save my personal days for when they can’t go to school.

Ok a while back I was on a trial and every few feet there were dolls positioned alongside it. It was odd.

TX drivers fly off the goddamn handle everytime they see a biker slow down for a stop sign.....and continue through it. They also die of obesity on a frequent basis.
Guess I missed the educational video on bikers killing automobiles at 4-way stops or something?

Can I ask why it's not an option? I don't need detail if it's a personal time off thing. I'm more curious if your school district is putting pressure on you to show up or if there isn't adequate sub coverage in your area. I have 2 teachers in my family hit by this stomach bug and both stayed home because of the ferocity and communicability of the symptoms so I'm figuring your symptoms are very mild or your job is at risk.

Sadly not an option. We have had a million colds this winter/fall. I don’t even know if this one is contagious, because last week I felt lousy too. I’ll wear a mask and keep my distance!

Would you recommend GeoThermal? I looked into it a few years ago but was very expensive and only dandelion was an installer from what I could tell

If we had police pulling wreak less drivers over that would improve road safety. It’s like nascar out there, people drive with total disregard for the safety of others.

This looks like the only section mentioning motorized bikes
"Sec. 3. Section 14-289g of the general statutes is repealed and the 55 following is substituted in lieu thereof (Effective October 1, 2023): 56 (a) No person [under eighteen years of age] may (1) operate a 57 motorcycle or a motor-driven cycle, as defined in section 14-1, or (2) be 58 a passenger on a motorcycle or motor-driven cycle, unless such operator 59 or passenger is wearing protective headgear of a type which conforms 60 to the minimum specifications established in 49 CFR 571.218, as 61 amended from time to time. Any person who violates [this section] any 62 provision of this subsection shall have committed an infraction and shall 63 be fined not less than ninety dollars. 64 (b) As used in this section, the term "motorcycle" [shall] does not 65 include "autocycle"."

Agreed. CT already half-asses roads. You can bet your ass they won't put in dividers. Just widen the road and create an additional passing lane for cars.

Spiral Arts Studio in Willimantic does a "Try it Night" - two hours of clay spinning with no obligation. You can combine it with dinner at Stone Row, Willimantic Brewing Company or The Harp on Church.
