This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My city bans bikes from buses because of the space they take up. Scooters and folding bikes are ok only if they're folded up small enough not to be obstructive.

The really shitty thing is that bikes are allowed on trains. But if the trains are unavailable and get replaced by a rail replacement bus...because it's a bus, you can't take your bike.

I was until now unaware that there were places where (non-folded) bikes were allowed on buses. On trams and trains sure, but buses have such limited space that I can't imagine a bike being transported in them.

I have seen in more than one place a bicycle rack attached to the front of the bus to allow a few bikes
