Bike culture here is gradually adopting the aesthetic aspects of car culture -- i.e. lowrider bikes, fixed-gear bikes, etc. It's self-expression.

But hey, it's not necessarily a bad thing -- it's not nearly as damaging as car culture, so the Militant says, let 'em have it. The Militant does see a future for car-sharing, being that insurance and gas are expensive. Bike-sharing won’t work in Los Angeles.
