While listening to the monthly Metafilter podcast today, we discovered that we have a partner in outrage in mathowie (AKA Matt Haughey, Metafilter founder), who’s big on bikes. He threw his vote behind plastering the shaming poster all over Champaign, IL (which, we are flattered and slightly tickled to hear, resembles NYC, at least in its sidewalks). Download the full podcast here(mp3) or listen on MetaTalk. Coverage of bike banditry starts around 40:40.
Wait, you guys are in Champaign? I just moved from there. Now I want to know exactly where this is taking place. Say the word and I’ll put you in touch with some librarians and bike co-op people.
