The thieves and the dopers around here all ride bicycles.
There was a heroin dealer/user across the way that was
also a sort of bicycle broker in a bassakwards way.
They have those big u-bolt bike locks that they use as
their weapons, kinda like the psuedo skateboarders
use their stuff as an impact weapon. ( doesn't work
too well on a kid with an AR huh? Woops . . . )

I live near a small town.
There is an entire society that can't afford vehicles. Therefore, they remove the mowing deck from riding lawnmowers and voila! Transportation! 😃
John is the local dealer/head mechanic. Toothless meth head with a prison record.

Neat view!
Boy friend driving down the street, headed to the local Hop & Sak. Sweetie Pie is sitting on the hood, holding her purse and smoking a cigarette.
At the store, he stops, she jumps off and goes inside.
Five minutes later she reappears with two packs of the cheapest cigs they carry and a six pack of "Old Rooster Toot". Mama hops on the hood, lights up another cheroot and pops a top.
Papa lights up, drinks up, cranks up and the two of them trundle off down the street to work on another IRS deduction and EBT raise!
