I rode my bike to vote today

[Doug Fattic]

My voting place is about a mile away. I rode my "Messenger" bike that is similar to the bikes we make as a charity project in Ukraine. The difference is I used lighter tubing. This one was an example of how to make a frame when I am teaching my framebuilding classes.

I had to hustle to beat the rain supposedly coming at 10 am. The line was very short and I was in and out in about 15 minutes.

Riding bikes and voting is a great combo. Right there with peanut butter and jelly. (Or chocolate)

Excellent.

I voted weeks ago via mail. I did walk to the local PO to mail it in.

I didn't ride my bike to do it (should have rode the Riv), but I voted in person for the first time in many years on Sunday.. being military, I always voted by absentee ballot.. it was kind of cool to do it in person again!

Nice. We had voted early by mail. But ironically my wife and I went for a walk before work and we walked by the polling place so we could chuckle at our fortune to not be stuck in the raging car-scrum. Probably similar distance, about a mile.

Put me in the camp that voted early, but did ride my bike to the ballot drop box at the local library.

Voted early, too, but I couldn't find a way to tell the parties that so they'd stop bombing me with ads

Same here, but the library wasn’t local, because the library up the street doesn’t have a ballot box. Got a good hour of riding and civic duty.

I walked to the mailbox a few weeks ago. I haven't voted in person since 2016.

That's a very cool bike and I love what you are doing for Ukrainians. My wife and I always ride out to vote, voted here in Virginia about 3 weeks ago.

I've ridden to vote the last 3-4 elections

I get *looks* ...but then again, I live in what were the cowfields so it's expected.

Fixin to get changed to go vote again

I voted early. I ran to town hall (1 mile), cast my vote, then continued running on our local MUT. Best run of the year IMHO. I just hope I get what I voted for.

Good stuff!

I also voted early and dropped off my ballot on foot.

Ya bunch of Commies!!!

We did early voting as well. It was my daughter's first time to vote. The workers at the polling station rang a bell and did a cheer for her. Kinda cool. We were in and out of the polling station in 15 minutes.

Vote Pedro!
