Lemmy is more a "Fuck Cars" kind of place in my experience, if you want to fight the biking horde you're going to have to build the army yourself

I don't want to fight the biking horde, I just want to be a gearhead.

I agree with a lot of what the Fuck Cars community has to say (the name sucks though). Cars are often not the best solution. Good public transit means only the people who want to drive are on the road, which means less morons. Oh no - they might shut down some city streets, the worst place to drive anyways.

Cars are loud, it's a fact. As a gearhead, I don't like generic road noise. Cool engines with tasteful exhausts? Yeah. A corolla driving past making nothing but tire noise? Nah. I'll take a quiet downtown please.

Being a public transit/bicycling enthusiast and a car enthusiast is very possible. Public transit and good bike infrastructure make driving better, and no one should be forced to drive if they don't want to, just like you aren't being forced to take public transit or bike.
