Hey Philly bike kids:
In case you've somehow missed the news, the city council is cracking down on unsafe riding habits, i.e. riding the wrong way on one way streets, riding on the sidewalk, riding without brakes, and wearing headphones. Check out the situation here and here.

WHAT? SO LUDICROUS.

Of all ways to increase revenue for the city, fining bicyclists $300 for wearing headphones while riding hardly seems fair.

It's going to be interesting to see how this no brake issue affects our loyal fixie fanatics...

Go to bikePHL for updates- they said yesterday that today police are going to be patrolling specifically for bike violations and will actually be writing fines. Good luck out there and ride safe.
