This just in: The dumbest, least bike-friendly city in the US is...
in Texas. Is anyone surprised?Several Houston restaurants victims of "bicycle bandit"
Five restaurants in southwest Houston, near Buffalo Speedway and 59, were burglarized yesterday morning by a thief who police are still searching for, according to KTRK. The crime spree began around 1:45 am yesterday and lasted only a few minutes. It also returned little reward - the unidentified burglar made off with a grand total of zero in cash. The man also made his getaway on a bicycle, which we hear is the preferred means of transportation for environmentally friendly burglars these days.
See, now that's just petulant bullshit from an armchair reporter, intended to make all bike riders look stoopid by association.
He's not stoopid because he's riding a bike, or even because he's trying to rob closed restaurants. He's stoopid for living in Houston, where they apparently can't catch you unless you're in a car. (Sorry, BikeHouston.com. The truth hurts.)
