Totally car free city project master plan
The two main things to know about this city design is the buildings are “zoned” by type where the zones are in radii, and the entire area under the city is subway tunnels.
The design can also be built above grade if stabilized due to none of the construction being with tunnel boring and all of it being built on a flat dig.
The subway tunnels will be in a grid to make speed and acceleration less of an issue, and in the centre of the town there will be a full sized train passing through.
All the subway trains and full sized trains will have a special modification and will be essentially passenger trains with a cargo section (also a bike section most likely) the cargo section and the design of the elevators is what separates this design from anything even close to what’s done today.
A large platform like deck will be loaded and unloaded separately from the train (train meaning subway too from now on) and the loaded or empty deck will be lifted onto the train with hydraulic arms and possibly rails.
These decks will be designed based on certain load characteristics for weights of loads within the city and it’s various businesses and some residential orders.
Every city block will be a stop and every stop will have a deck loading system.
/ A method to have an empty deck available will be devised but is not set yet, this could include an in and out “box” and the trains to run with some empty decks or a system to move the empty deck out of the way for “out box” loading or just to set it vertically for when needed and a more complex loading system at each stop./ each station/stop around a city block (4, one in each direction around the block) will have two deck platforms, first along the path being the arrival deck, and second being the departure deck, with cleared empty arrival decks being taken down and tilted sideways using the same arm that loads them and using a small rail system with a shuttle riding a wall mounted rail and rollers on the deck riding a floor mounted rail, this will move the deck to position to be loaded for the next run without requiring any complicated maneuvers involving the train and other stops.
Both businesses and residential can book time on the decks and booked space can be separated and multi-booked with caveats about load type for load protection (eggs on top type of thing) and though less likely, residential and business loads can be on the same deck. Aside from quickly unloaded loads, a deck should not share two destinations unless the system is operating at reduced capacity.
The master basement for the buildings will be where the complex elevator system is, /this system will include one of two options, diagonal elevators or regular elevators with a cart or conveyor belt type system to move loads sideways, with the diagonal elevators working best with stairways and the dual system working best to possibly save space taken/reduce complexity./ this system will include a row of passenger elevators to switch directions and two large cargo elevators to switch directions for full decks worth of cargo at a time, this will include self propelled mostly automated pump carts to move cargo from the deck to the bulk cargo elevators and back and from the regular cargo elevators to the deck. The cargo elevators and passenger elevators could optionally stop at both floors or only the highest and utilize the cross directional elevators to go to the lower floor. Residential cargo elevators will have furniture dollies in cubbies in the wall and ratchet straps either also in cubbies or strapped across two hooks within the elevator, nylon corner protectors will be clipped into the corners of the elevator in 1-2 sets and will help strap small fold up arms on the dollies against the furniture without damage.
The elevators may be dual use for space and energy savings or there may be separate cargo and passenger elevators for safety and speed, if separate elevators then the majority of the pathway for passengers will not move.
Block size will determine elevator complexity and train stop duration compared to stop frequency, with larger blocks needing longer stops and more complex elevators but also taking more distance to the next block.
The buildings themselves will all be mixed use with the exception of “special ground floor easy access apartment” being separate from regular apartments just to call them mixed use too instead of saying words like “most” and “mostly”.
These buildings will have two zoning types, vague and exact, with the more vague one just specifying the radii type and the exact one being so specific that what specific businesses operate there can be specified, to the point of a bakery or even a cheese shop being specified.
The exact zoning needs more planning and may change based on residents needs, while the vague zoning will not change unless the whole city needs to change.
There are actually two separate design types for the radii zoning, one with the residential zoning being near the outside and one with it being near the inside, but I will discuss the main type where the residential is towards the outside.
The zones starting from the outside are a walkway and green spaces along with art installations, then residential apartments (that are very tall with a design of space between apartments for maintenance and leak control where a sort of funnel will be below each apartment to direct water leaks somewhere safe, with all electrical coming from above the apartment and below the next apartments funnel, making maintenance easier and noise harder to travel), then businesses that residents would directly shop at, then slightly more industrial businesses but not an actual industrial zone (which can include butchers or non factory businesses, but not anything with pollution or smells), then a series of parks and recreation areas, and finally a central building that could be city hall or an amphitheatre or museum or other historical building of significance if built on an existing city’s land, there are a lot of options and opportunities for the very centre, and even a few options for the parks around it.
Some options for the parks include walkways and running tracks and bike baths.
Along with all of that are many things that go with the buildings, like each one big enough to having a public use bathroom (doesn’t need to be a huge bathroom) and there being tunnels to each building for many different functions currently done by vehicles like mail and grocery delivery and garbage/recycling (along with a different method for sorting recycling to the point that garbage technically isn’t a thing anymore and there’s no real sorting of recycling either, it’s all done by whoever throws it out, of course things that can’t be recycled currently would go to different storage places like landfills, but possibly just in marked bags at a regular landfill until the idea is more readily adopted) and bicycle parking in at least residential buildings.
Another thing each building will have is fire suppression to the point of also extinguishing fires outside of the buildings and the ability to extinguish fires in adjacent buildings where the fire suppression may have somehow failed.
Services like paramedics and police (restructured police of course) will operate in a very different manner where transportation is only done one way and associated equipment will already be stored in all the buildings, meaning each building is effectively an ambulance and a cop car and paramedics and officers will live in each building (they’re all residential too so it works well) and they will be on call in different shifts, meaning they get paid for being there, failure to do so if called can result in the on call pay being removed until the next successful response.
Both of which will have special keys to facilitate emergency transportation on the trains, this will make all trains pull into the stop ahead of them except the ones behind the location the key is used, and a message or alarm will notify people to get off if they can and take the next train, this will require two directions and one transfer before the destination but will mean response time is substantially quicker.
Any disruption to regular scheduled service will be solved by everyone exiting and going across to the other direction for that block and taking the train back a stop and going across to the right direction and skipping the disrupted stop, this is only for disruptions that result in a blocked stop, other disruptions will be solved by just taking the next train.
Scheduled times will depend on the block size and city size but should be close to 5 minutes give or take.
The pathways will consist of a sidewalk and slow and fast bike lanes, mirrored on each side and will be placed in a way that allows somewhat easy removal for access and they will be reflective enough not to absorb energy from the sun but not to damage eyes, and they will have heating coils or fluid loops to allow warming to prevent snow buildup and ease in plowing.
Utilities will be in tunnels also and will be designed to allow safe maintenance by a person or machine, this may involve full disruption of utilities along that pathway to make repairs safer and easier, and that method may allow utilities to share a tunnel like water and electricity and gas (may end up being biogas or hydrogen instead) where the water is of course in its own pipe, two thing about sewage is the tunnels will be double lined and there may actually be two types where toilets get a separate system and may run from salt water if feasible just to save on filtration efforts and waste.
Electric transformers and possibly substations will be under the pathways and possibly in the space under blocks, and may be accessible two ways if done right, one is by the train and the other is using a special vehicle that can lift and lower and transport these transformers by driving over an opening made in the bike lanes and perching itself on the sidewalks.
Many services will change the way they work, I’ve already gone over a few but less notable is the mail where the job descriptions will change and mail sorting will be done in the city somewhere and delivered through the tunnels in batches based on buildings (or based on blocks and separated by building from there) and the job that usually drives the trucks and delivers mail to P.O. Boxes would instead deliver to residents unable to easily go down to the lobby and check their mail, and others on the same floor if they opt for it.
The mail system would use one or two tunnels, where one system is slower but takes less infrastructure but the other is faster and less complicated.
Large items would use the cargo function of the trains.
Currier companies would not be a thing here unless they wanted to ride the train and hand deliver to individuals.
Maintenance and everything like that (residential/business maintenance and repair technicians along with maintenance for the city itself) would be done by rail and on foot, carrying tools, equipment, and parts to the destination in bags and toolboxes, including rail maintenance being done by a special rail vehicle or even just adapted to a standard train.
That’s basically it for the physical aspects of the city other than things I may have missed and the parts outside the main city.
Beyond the main city is the industrial area, that’s just past the city in line with the train, those are the businesses and factories that support the main city both in products and resources and financially in exports, the train will load and unload through a perpendicular train here.
Surrounding the main city is a circular walkway to get to parts of the city and get lower speed exercise.
Just outside of that is a wall or fence or series of bollards to protect the city, and just in front of those is a series of food trucks and food stands and kiosks, some serving outward of the city and some serving facing each other with picnic benches between to eat at.
Just outside of that is a raised deck type walkway that people can stand on and order and be safe.
Just outside of that is the dirt or paved pathway for people to get from the previous section to the next section.
Just outside of that is the only pathway for cars that technically counts as part of the city, and that’s for them to both get past the city and to park, this ring around the city may have interruptions and only be a partial ring if an uninterrupted view is desired as part of the city.
Just outside of that is the actual parking and the highways (in and out of the city but limited to at most one for each main direction) where parking will have a system to mark a space for each car to avoid issues and fights, and the highway will have speed reduction measures and physical protection in the event of failure to reduce speed, the highway may also include a way to power electric vehicles to help transition them away from using all the lithium before hopefully being phased out.
Just outside of the parking ring is a stepped viewing area to view whatever the outside of the city has to offer for views.
Outside of that main city encompassing ring is where farmland will go, and that will be automated other than areas closer into the city where it’s less straight, that will be an optional area for growing organic foods and meats.
Somewhere in one of those two areas will be a slaughterhouse to keep it away from the city for many reasons.
Transportation from those areas will be done by a separate train that will meet up with the main train to transfer passengers and cargo, this train will also meet up with the trolly from the suburb area (small area) before meeting with the main train.
Some cities will have a meadow or forest or waterfront area to one side or a mixture of them.
Now you have an idea of what the city would look like, but there are also pseudo political aspects.
The hardest part is not letting anyone control the city or buildings in the name of profit.
No building will be owned but no one will be without a place to live.
Other than the business zone apartments everything will be equal in quality and size based on room quantity (other than possible studio apartments for artists) that way prices can also remain similar or the same.
All rents will be paid in taxes which benefits the city, and the option to pay a large deposit to reduce rent will be possible, this deposit will track with value of key items.
This means that the city is effectively the landlord for everyone including businesses which allows rules like prices and wages to be specified along with breaking department stores into separate departments to keep from them wasting space on overpriced items that other stores sell cheaper or better quality of, and any other stipulation that benefits the customers and employees and protects them.
Things like a UBI and rent control would be possible within the city and things to prevent or stop other injustices like racism and sexism and anything I can’t seem to think of right now would be able to be put in place.
Once one of these cities is built it can grow funding to build another and work the way to overcoming and converting existing cities that won’t sell the land off cheap.
Once everyone who wants the car free life has a car free place to live, expansion to accepting people from other countries can happen and that changes a lot of things on the world stage.
Additionally facilities for sports can be accommodated and possibly snuck in as a whole radii themselves between business and the centre or business and the more industrial businesses.
One of these sports can be driving related, to get that out of peoples systems, like tracks or drag strips or even rallies.
Another addition is workshops for people to use for creativity. The addition of these types of things increases the size of the city however.
An additional benefit of the elevators and subways going everywhere is that it massively increases accessibility.

Baseball Hitting Nets and Waterproof Bike Bags for Cycling
For baseball players, practice is a constant routine, and a Baseball Hitting Net can make it significantly more productive. This net isn’t just a convenient practice tool; it’s a personal coach that allows players to work on their swing, stance, and aim without needing a full-sized field or a team of people to retrieve balls. Here are some of the reasons a hitting net is an invaluable tool.
Benefits of Using a Baseball Hitting Net
One of the primary advantages of a Baseball Hitting Net is its ability to catch all the balls hit toward it, reducing time spent on retrieving balls and allowing more time for focused practice. This makes the net ideal for honing specific skills like hitting, pitching, and even fielding if it’s large and sturdy enough. It’s an especially valuable tool for those who live in urban areas or where space is limited since it provides a confined yet effective training area.
The net can also improve accuracy. A baseball hitting net often includes target zones, helping players focus on specific areas of the strike zone. Hitting practice can quickly become an exercise in precision, as players learn to control their swing direction and speed. This translates into improved in-game performance, as players can hit balls with greater confidence and control.
Portability and Setup
Most modern baseball hitting nets are lightweight and portable, meaning you can set up a practice session just about anywhere with minimal fuss. Many nets are collapsible, folding into compact sizes, and come with carrying bags for easy transportation. This makes them an excellent choice for traveling teams or athletes who want to practice in different locations. Setting up a hitting net usually takes only a few minutes, and once assembled, it can withstand strong hits, making it highly durable.
Durability is a key factor when choosing a baseball hitting net. Look for nets made of weather-resistant materials so they can be left outside if needed. The stability of the net frame is crucial too; it should withstand repeated hits without tipping over. When players know their net can take a beating, they’re more likely to swing confidently, enhancing the practice session.
Waterproof Bike Bags for Cycling: A Rider’s Best Friend on the Road
For cycling enthusiasts, having a Waterproof Bike Bag for Cycling is essential, especially if you enjoy long-distance rides or commuting in various weather conditions. Unlike typical bike bags, a waterproof bag ensures that your essentials—like your phone, wallet, and keys—stay safe and dry regardless of the weather. A high-quality waterproof bike bag is an invaluable accessory that can be the difference between a smooth ride and a soaked, stressful experience.
Benefits of a Waterproof Bike Bag
Weather is unpredictable, and for cyclists who enjoy exploring different terrains, a waterproof bag offers peace of mind. Waterproof bike bags are designed to keep moisture out, safeguarding all your items, even in a heavy downpour. The exterior is typically made from water-resistant or waterproof materials like PVC, nylon, or treated fabrics that can handle wet conditions while remaining durable.
A Waterproof Bike Bag for Cycling is also ideal for protecting electronic devices like phones or GPS trackers. Many waterproof bags come with multiple compartments, helping riders organize their belongings. This organization feature is particularly helpful for longer rides where you may want to bring snacks, tools, and a change of clothes. Cyclists can keep all their belongings accessible and safe without worrying about rain or water damage.
Easy Installation and Versatile Designs
Most waterproof bike bags come with convenient mounting systems that make them easy to attach to various parts of the bike, such as the handlebars, frame, or saddle. Installation usually involves adjustable straps or clips, allowing the bag to be securely fastened without impacting the bike's balance. This ease of installation and removal makes the bag a versatile choice for riders who may want to switch bags based on the type of ride or route.
There’s also a wide range of designs and sizes available for waterproof bike bags. Smaller bags are perfect for minimalists who only need to carry the essentials, while larger bags can hold additional gear, making them ideal for touring or bikepacking. Choosing a bag that fits your needs is key, whether you're an urban commuter or a cross-country cyclist.
Choosing the Right Gear for Your Sport
Selecting the right sports gear, whether it’s a Baseball Hitting Net or a Waterproof Bike Bag for Cycling, involves considering your specific needs and preferences. In baseball, your net’s durability, portability, and setup ease are crucial. For cyclists, factors such as waterproofing, capacity, and installation ease are essential when choosing a bike bag. Knowing what you need from these items can help you make an informed decision and enhance your experience on the field or on the road.
Combining Convenience with Performance
Both a baseball hitting net and a waterproof bike bag serve to enhance convenience and performance in sports training and outdoor activities. They are designed to remove obstacles that would otherwise limit practice time or comfort, whether it’s retrieving balls or safeguarding belongings from rain. With these tools in your arsenal, you’ll be better prepared, more comfortable, and capable of focusing on what matters most: improving your skills and enjoying the sport.

Ride in Style: The Essential Guide to Leather Tool Rolls for Motorcycle Enthusiasts
For motorcycle enthusiasts, the love of the open road often goes hand in hand with the desire for practicality and style. One accessory that embodies both functionality and aesthetics is the leather tool roll motorcycle. These elegant yet robust storage solutions keep essential tools organised and add a touch of class to your motorcycle gear. This guide will explore the benefits of using a leather tool roll, how to choose the right one, and tips for maintaining it. Whether you're a weekend rider or a seasoned traveller, understanding the value of a quality tool roll is essential for any motorcycle enthusiast.
The Importance of a Leather Tool Roll
A leather tool roll is more than just a stylish accessory; it is an essential piece of equipment for any motorcyclist. Having the right tools at your fingertips can mean the difference between a smooth ride and an unexpected breakdown. Here's why investing in a leather tool roll is a wise decision:
Organisation and Accessibility
A well-structured tool roll allows you to organise your tools efficiently. With designated pockets for each tool, you can quickly find what you need without rummaging through a messy bag. This organisation is especially beneficial during emergencies when time is of the essence.
Durability and Protection
Leather is renowned for its durability and longevity. A quality leather tool roll will withstand the rigours of the road, protecting your tools from moisture, dirt, and damage. Unlike fabric or plastic alternatives, leather offers superior protection for your essential gear.
Choosing the Right Leather Tool Roll
When selecting a leather tool roll, several factors must be considered to ensure you make the best choice for your needs.
Size and Capacity
The size of your tool roll should correspond with the number and size of tools you intend to carry. A smaller roll may suffice if you have a minimal set of tools for light maintenance. However, a more prominent roll with multiple pockets will serve you better if you frequently tackle more extensive repairs.
Quality of Leather
Not all leather is created equal. Look for tool rolls made from full-grain leather, the highest quality available. Full-grain leather retains its natural imperfections, adding character and ensuring durability. Check for the thickness of the leather as well; thicker leather usually means better protection and longevity.
Design and Functionality
While functionality is paramount, aesthetics also play a role for motorcycle enthusiasts. Choose a design that complements your bike and personal style. Look for secure closures, reinforced stitching, and weather-resistant finishes for added practicality.
Maintaining Your Leather Tool Roll
Proper maintenance is key to ensure your leather tool roll's longevity. Here are some essential tips:
Regular Cleaning
Keep your leather tool roll clean by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth after each use. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, which can damage the leather. For deeper cleaning, consider using a specialised leather cleaner.
Conditioning
Leather can dry out over time, leading to cracks and wear. Use a good quality leather conditioner to maintain its suppleness and shine. Apply conditioner every few months or more frequently if the tool roll is exposed to harsh conditions.
Proper Storage
Store your tool roll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid folding it too tightly to prevent creasing or cracking the leather.
Conclusion
A leather tool roll is an essential companion for any motorcycle enthusiast, providing organisation, durability, and a touch of style. Understanding the importance of choosing the right roll, maintaining its condition, and selecting the best features for your needs can ensure you're well-prepared for any journey. Whether hitting the open road or making quick repairs at a roadside stop, a quality leather tool roll will keep your tools safe, organised, and ready for action. Ride in style and confidence, knowing that you have everything you need at your fingertips.

The Popularity of E-Bikes Is Growing
Do you tire of making the same commute every day? Do you want to experience activities without being totally worn out? You ought to ride an electric bicycle in that situation. These electric bikes with pedal assistance are rising in acceptance all over the world. They improve the environment while also facilitating and enhancing everyone's enjoyment of cycling. We'll delve deeper into the e-bike trend in this post and go over all you need to know to pick the right one for you. So buckle up (or should I say get on your pedals) and get ready to explore the fascinating world of electric bicycles!
Electric bicycle types
bikes come in a huge variety of shapes and sizes on the market today. Let's take a closer look at the most well-liked e-bike models now available.
Our electric city bikes make it simple and quick to go around town. Their upright handlebars and padded seats make for a comfortable ride through crowded city streets.
The e-bike counterpart of a mountain bike is the next option, which is excellent for exploring rocky terrain. These bikes' huge tires, full suspension, and sturdy frames are designed to easily handle rough terrain.
For riders who wish to advance their riding by traveling farther and more quickly than they could on a standard road cycle, electric road cycles are available. These lightweight models are excellent for touring and long-distance racing.
Folding electric bikes have recently experienced a boom in popularity due to their portability and space-saving qualities. They are fantastic for those who need a vehicle that can be stored under a desk or utilized for public transportation yet nonetheless travel frequently.
There is always an electric bike that is specifically designed to meet your demands, tastes, and lifestyle requirements.
Electric bike disadvantages and benefits
Electric bikes have experienced a meteoric rise in acceptance as a fun and useful mode of transportation in recent years. Like any other product, e-bikes offer advantages and cons.
The reduced environmental effect of e-bikes is a significant advantage. Because they don't emit any harmful gases, they are ideal for anyone worried about their impact on the environment. They are a great alternative for persons who cannot engage in rigorous physical exercise due to age or health because they are simpler to pedal than traditional bikes.
However, one disadvantage of Ebike rental Mljet is their expensive price. Traditional bicycles are less expensive than electric bikes. They also incur continuous expenses because batteries need to be changed on occasion.
bikes are a practical mode of mobility in crowded cities with limited parking. Riders may receive some exercise and fresh air on their daily commutes rather than being stuck in gridlock.
bike riders, however, may face harsher fines in the event of an accident because several states regard them as motorized vehicles.
There are many advantages to riding an e-bike, but each rider must weigh those advantages against the disadvantages to decide if an e-bike is right for them.
How to Make the Most of Your Electric Bike Search
Choosing the best electric bike can be difficult with all the options available. Consider your chosen riding style as well as the terrain you'll be navigating. For your everyday commute, you may get by with a lightweight, commuter-style electric bike with narrow tires.
Due to their wider, knobbier tires, electric mountain bikes (e-MTBs) are ideally suited for off-road trails and mountain biking. For people who want to pack lightly yet take their cycling trips seriously, touring electric bicycles are the perfect option.
The next stage is to calculate the wattage of the motor and the battery's capacity; a higher wattage motor will produce more power, and larger batteries will enable a greater operating range. Before choosing a particular model that will be both comfortable and convenient for you, you should test out a few different ones.
Because it affects stability when riding quickly or making sharp turns, the frame size is particularly crucial. It might be uncomfortable to wear frames that don't fit well for long periods of time, so it's crucial to consider your height when choosing frames.
Cookbook for E-Bikes
Using your e-bike in the kitchen is not only a lot of fun, but it also allows you to prepare a wholesome meal for yourself.
Bringing food for long rides can be challenging, but you can stay energized with light snacks like almonds, dried fruit, or energy bars with lots of protein. Other suitable options are sandwiches or wraps that won't get soggy during transportation.
But why limit yourself to bland snacks? Making scrumptious, filling meals that can be savored while taking in the stunning surroundings will enhance the experience. The things that can be done with a little planning and ingenuity are endless.
Prepare a cold pasta salad with crunchy veggies or a quinoa meal with protein-rich additions like roasted chickpeas or hard-boiled eggs. Create your own trail mix using coconut flakes and chocolate chips to sate your mid-ride sweet tooth.
Using e-bike recipes is all about making the most of your trip, whether through discovery or sustenance.
Alternatives to Electric Bikes
bikes have had a meteoric rise in popularity recently due to their usability and few negative environmental effects. Though they might not be effective for everyone. When it comes to alternative modes of transportation and hobbies, there are many options.
The greatest way to experience Mljet's natural beauty is on foot, and walking and trekking are great options for this. Two of the best ways to experience the island's magnificent shoreline up close and personal are paddleboarding and kayaking. For those who choose motorized transportation, quad bike excursions and automobile rentals are also offered.
Mljet private tours offers a wide selection of foods and activities. Hiring an e-bike or using another form of transportation will allow you to explore the entirety of this beautiful island.

What Are Various Kinds Of Bicycles In The Market?
Cycling is one of the most popular and versatile sports to indulge in. You can alter its intensity and ease of riding. Numerous kinds of cycles suit various terrains and agendas. Some are designed for smooth long-distance rides, while others are built for stunts and competitive racing.
More than 100 million cycles are manufactured every year. They have a long and chequered history dating nearly 600 years ago. Cycles designs have evolved with major innovations that dramatically changed their features and forms.
You can choose among the many designs of cycles based on what you intend to use it for and the features and fittings of the cycle that appeal to you.
Following are some of the top choices among different types of cycles:
City cycles
As the name implies, city cycles allude to urban Ebikes. City bikes are created with a focus on urban roads that are typically smooth terrain to offer an easy pedalling experience that enables you to glide about without much effort. These cycles are for you if you wish to commute to work with ease. These bikes are easy modes of transport and permit you to incorporate your daily dose of exercise. In case you enjoy stamina-focused workouts in your daily routine, cycling can serve as an exciting option.
Hybrid cycles
Hybrid cycles are built to cater to both city and off-road biking conditions. Such bikes have bigger, padded seats and a comfortable handlebar position which offers the best experience of cycling in both terrains. Tyres are typically medium-sized and feature semi-smooth tread, which offers adequate cushioning for uneven surfaces. You can ride these bikes on unpaved trails as well as paved roads. but these bikes do not have the capacity to handle the rough terrains of mountain paths.
Off-road cycles/ mountain bikes
These cycles are designed for mountain trails and rough terrains. Such cycles typically feature flat handlebars as well as a low range of gears for comfortable pedalling on highly steep, hilly pathways. These bikes have high-quality shock absorbers and suspensions. Mountain bikes with front absorption are called Hardtails, while those with both rear and front full- suspension are called Fullfull-suspension bikes. Rigid bikes are off-road cycles with no suspension. you love adventure and
challenges, mountain bikes are ideal for you.
Folding bikes
Such cycles are among the most compact bicycles in the current market. A folding bike can be folded into a compact package and can be easily carried while riding public transport or when entering buildings. Such models of cycles are perfect for persons who desire to travel long distances with their cycles. At best, such cycles are very lightweight and have extremely small wheels. In case you have to travel part of your daily commute in public transport or cabs, you can carry your folding bike right along and cycle to your destination the rest of the way.
Road bikes
They are best identified by their turned-down handlebars, as well as skinny tires. The handlebars that are curving downwards are typically super lightweight, which helps put you in an aerodynamic situation. The lightweight frame renders this cycle especially good for numerous uses like touring, racing, long-distance riding, daily commuting, and fitness riding.
The big and thin tires of such bikes allow you to cruise along various terrains with zero to low effort. If n case you are obsessed with speed, road bikes might be the best fit for you.
Touring bike
They are just like regular bikes but have been tweaked with special features meant to suit long rides. Touring bikes are equipped with points where you can attach water bottles, lights, racks, pumps, and fenders. They also have super-sturdy frames, which permit them to carry heavy loads on both rear and front racks. Most touring bikes feature disc brakes which offer improved stopping power, especially on non-paved roads. A special feature of such cycles is their wide tires which are specially designed to navigate gravel roads.
Track/ fixed gear bikes
Often called ‘fixies’, Track or Fixed gear bikes are mainly used by athletes and racers, who train for the professional, competitive sport of cycle racing. As the name suggests, the main feature of such bikes is that they contain a single, fixed gear. This implies that you cannot use them for freewheeling or coasting.
Thus, riders have to use the strength of their legs to stop turning the cranks of such bikes and further stop their motion. Such bikes may feature many brakes and different styles of handlebars. They typically need their cyclists to spin their legs in constant circles to operate at a higher cadence.
Recumbent bike
This bicycle is non-traditional and needs one to sit in a lower seat to the ground and resembles a chair. These bikes feature several configurations: short to long wheel-bases, various kinds of 2, 3, or 4 wheelers, and above/ under-seat steering. A special feature that is deemed as a drawback to this cycle is that because of its design, you cannot stand while pedalling up hilly terrain.
BMX
This is an acronym for Bicycle Motor Cross. This is mainly because such a bike is a single-speed bike that can be raced around small dirt tracks similar to other motorsports. BMX is a term used for any bike with 20-inch wheels and a single speed.
Such bikes are ideal for those who wish to perform jumps and tricks with their bikes since they are especially built for this, with a durable and robust structure and design. They feature small frames, 20-inch wheels, and single gear, which make them strong and low maintenance.
E-bikes
These bikes feature an electric motor that can be charged by plugging into a regular electric outlet. This motor offers much support when you pedal and is highly useful when you go fast or in uphill terrain. There are different e-bikes available in the market. Electric versions are mostly available in types like hybrid bikes, road bikes, and mountain bikes.
Cyclocross bikes
These are designed especially for racing around a dirt trail which comprises various blockages and obstacles found at regular intervals. Such bikes are super lightweight for carrying them and tough and sturdy for handling obstacles.
In sum, cyclists are some of the most exciting adventurers and commuters. Cycles are not only environment friendly but a refreshing source for an routine exercise. Whatever be your agenda, you can opt from among so many different designs and types.

HOW TO CHOOSE AN ELECTRIC BIKE
Electric bikes or E-bikes have become increasingly popular for their ease of use and general fun anywhere. Like any sports equipment, there are different styles designed to excel at specific tasks. You, as the buyer, need to figure out what you want to do with your Ebike to purchase the one best for your needs. Like peddle bikes, styles range from ultra-light road cycles for long-distance rides to aggressive mountain bikes with aggressive tread for whatever nature throws on the trail. A road bike will be a rough ride on a backwoods trail, and a mountain bike won’t be an asset on a long ride on the pavement.
So how should one choose an e-bike? Use naturally is a significant first consideration; after that, we have top speed, range of charge, types of batteries, and additional accessories. For an in-depth look at Ebikes, check out the E-bike 101 page if you haven’t yet.
Use
Where you plan on using your bike will change the style of bike you need. If you plan on off-setting your gas bill and biking to work, you will want a bike with different features than heading into the woods for a weekly ride down out-of-season ski trails. Road bikes are lighter with slimmer frames and tires designed for flat pavement. Offroad bikes have heavier frames to accommodate the rough terrain encountered on a trail ride.
ON-ROAD
Comfort and speeds are the biggest considerations for road bikes. The svelt frames of road bikes mean less work peddling and powering them uphill. There are two categories of road bikes, touring and cruising bikes.
Touring Bikes are the classic style of road bikes with down-turned handles and narrow frames. Most touring bikes will have hub motors to help reduce the bike’s weight. These are great options for those looking to bike to work or push their weekend bike trip even further. Touring bikes are the lightest style of the bike on the market.
Cruiser Bikes offer comfort and style. Cruisers are usually styled like vintage bikes with larger seats and swept handles, making rides across even terrain a joy. Many cruisers have wider tires; the added stability cruising on the balloon tires makes them great beach bikes when peddling along hard-packed sand beaches. Cruisers are much like the big luxury sedans on the road; the trade-off of comfort is weight. These bikes tend to be heavier than most other options.
OFF-ROAD
Off-road bikes, as one would expect, are designed for playing where the pavement ends. Off-road bikes also come in a few styles; the two most popular variations are mountain bikes and fat-tire bikes.
Mountain E-bikes have the same styles and upgrades as traditional mountain bikes. To keep the bike balanced, most companies will use a mid-drive motor. This motor placement also allows for front and rear suspension. A front suspension fork will help soften the impact of a rough trail or even a pothole. For more technical trail riding, look for a downhill-style bike with both front and rear suspension.
Fat Tire E-Bikes are off-road bikes in the same way that your standard jeep is an offroad vehicle. It can handle rough terrain and city streets with the same capability. Fat tire bikes lack suspension, making them lighter weight. The large tires absorb some impact and provide traction in everything from sand to snow.
Commuter E-Bikes are another option that sits firmly between on and off-road bikes. They aren’t as light as touring bikes and don’t possess the same suspension systems as an offroad bike, but they can handle getting off the pavement when needed. Some commuter bike designs forsake the lightweight design to be foldable. The foldable features are an excellent resource for bikers living in smaller spaces where a full-sized bike would be challenging to store.
Folding Bikes are bike designs that forsake the lightweight design to be foldable. The foldable features are an excellent resource for bikers living in smaller spaces where a full-sized bike would be challenging to store. Folding bikes encompass a wide range of styles from “lightweight” on-road models with small tires and telescoping handles, to fat tire models that have front suspension for off-road use. For those who need as much space as possible, a folding bike is an option to consider.
POWER
Like any power source, the buyer has many choices. The cost-to-power ratio is the most common trade-off for e-bikes. The batteries on most e-bikes are removable, so there is always an option to purchase and charge a backup battery if your ride may exceed the charge. Many factors determine how long a battery will power your bike, but a good rule of thumb is to purchase the highest watt battery to extend your range at full power. We’ve listed the battery options below with a few notes to help inform you about the trade-offs.
Lead-Acid: The most economical option but sensitive to climate variations. Cold and hot weather will run the battery down at different rates. Riders can save a few hundred dollars on lead-acid batteries, but they weigh twice as much as lithium-ion batteries.
Nickel-Cadmium: Lighter than lead-acid batteries, but they suffer performance-impacting defects, such as “memory,” where the battery will lose performance based on whether it was properly charged or discharged.
Lithium-Ion: The most expensive option is also the lightest weight with no performance loss from weather or charging/discharging cycles.
DISTANCE
Each bike and power option style will lead to a different maximum distance for your e-bike. You won’t be dead in the water should the battery run down, but your ride will become more strenuous as you peddle a heavier bike in a lower gear. On average, e-bikes get 30 miles or so per charge running at full power. Some e-bikes are capable of ranging up to 100 miles per charge. Figuring out how you want to use your bike, in this case, will determine what range you may want. A long rage bike is ideal for those looking to do some serious long-distance rides into the backcountry or the next county. For bikers commuting to work or school, a 30-mile range is more than sufficient, especially with the ability to charge the battery while in class or on the clock.
SPEED
Knowing the top speed of a bike is critical for those who want to get somewhere fast. Depending on your location, some municipalities have imposed speed limits on bikes. Between motor design and top-speed bikes are broken down into three classes.
For class 1 and class 3 bikes, the rider needs to peddle for the motor to power the ride. Class 2 bikes have a throttle control like a moped. Class 1 bikes are regulated to a top speed of 20 miles per hour. This top speed makes them user-friendly for most bike paths and outdoor use. Twenty miles per hour is nothing to shake a stick at when considering how slow rush-hour city traffic can be. Class 2 and 3 bikes have top speeds of up to 28 miles per hour but are less accepted on bike paths and public roads. It’s important to check your local laws regarding e-bike ratings before making a purchase.
WEIGHT
As we mentioned before, bike weight can contribute to battery life. Heavier bikes may also be less maneuverable at low speeds. Cruisers and mountain bikes with heavier motors and large frames can weigh as much as 80 pounds, and smaller commuter bikes and touring cycles can weigh as little as 30 pounds.

Totally car free city project master plan
The two main things to know about this city design is the buildings are “zoned” by type where the zones are in radii, and the entire area under the city is subway tunnels.
The design can also be built above grade if stabilized due to none of the construction being with tunnel boring and all of it being built on a flat dig.
The subway tunnels will be in a grid to make speed and acceleration less of an issue, and in the centre of the town there will be a full sized train passing through.
All the subway trains and full sized trains will have a special modification and will be essentially passenger trains with a cargo section (also a bike section most likely) the cargo section and the design of the elevators is what separates this design from anything even close to what’s done today.
A large platform like deck will be loaded and unloaded separately from the train (train meaning subway too from now on) and the loaded or empty deck will be lifted onto the train with hydraulic arms and possibly rails.
These decks will be designed based on certain load characteristics for weights of loads within the city and it’s various businesses and some residential orders.
Every city block will be a stop and every stop will have a deck loading system.
/ A method to have an empty deck available will be devised but is not set yet, this could include an in and out “box” and the trains to run with some empty decks or a system to move the empty deck out of the way for “out box” loading or just to set it vertically for when needed and a more complex loading system at each stop./ each station/stop around a city block (4, one in each direction around the block) will have two deck platforms, first along the path being the arrival deck, and second being the departure deck, with cleared empty arrival decks being taken down and tilted sideways using the same arm that loads them and using a small rail system with a shuttle riding a wall mounted rail and rollers on the deck riding a floor mounted rail, this will move the deck to position to be loaded for the next run without requiring any complicated maneuvers involving the train and other stops.
Both businesses and residential can book time on the decks and booked space can be separated and multi-booked with caveats about load type for load protection (eggs on top type of thing) and though less likely, residential and business loads can be on the same deck. Aside from quickly unloaded loads, a deck should not share two destinations unless the system is operating at reduced capacity.
The master basement for the buildings will be where the complex elevator system is, /this system will include one of two options, diagonal elevators or regular elevators with a cart or conveyor belt type system to move loads sideways, with the diagonal elevators working best with stairways and the dual system working best to possibly save space taken/reduce complexity./ this system will include a row of passenger elevators to switch directions and two large cargo elevators to switch directions for full decks worth of cargo at a time, this will include self propelled mostly automated pump carts to move cargo from the deck to the bulk cargo elevators and back and from the regular cargo elevators to the deck. The cargo elevators and passenger elevators could optionally stop at both floors or only the highest and utilize the cross directional elevators to go to the lower floor. Residential cargo elevators will have furniture dollies in cubbies in the wall and ratchet straps either also in cubbies or strapped across two hooks within the elevator, nylon corner protectors will be clipped into the corners of the elevator in 1-2 sets and will help strap small fold up arms on the dollies against the furniture without damage.
The elevators may be dual use for space and energy savings or there may be separate cargo and passenger elevators for safety and speed, if separate elevators then the majority of the pathway for passengers will not move.
Block size will determine elevator complexity and train stop duration compared to stop frequency, with larger blocks needing longer stops and more complex elevators but also taking more distance to the next block.
The buildings themselves will all be mixed use with the exception of “special ground floor easy access apartment” being separate from regular apartments just to call them mixed use too instead of saying words like “most” and “mostly”.
These buildings will have two zoning types, vague and exact, with the more vague one just specifying the radii type and the exact one being so specific that what specific businesses operate there can be specified, to the point of a bakery or even a cheese shop being specified.
The exact zoning needs more planning and may change based on residents needs, while the vague zoning will not change unless the whole city needs to change.
There are actually two separate design types for the radii zoning, one with the residential zoning being near the outside and one with it being near the inside, but I will discuss the main type where the residential is towards the outside.
The zones starting from the outside are a walkway and green spaces along with art installations, then residential apartments (that are very tall with a design of space between apartments for maintenance and leak control where a sort of funnel will be below each apartment to direct water leaks somewhere safe, with all electrical coming from above the apartment and below the next apartments funnel, making maintenance easier and noise harder to travel), then businesses that residents would directly shop at, then slightly more industrial businesses but not an actual industrial zone (which can include butchers or non factory businesses, but not anything with pollution or smells), then a series of parks and recreation areas, and finally a central building that could be city hall or an amphitheatre or museum or other historical building of significance if built on an existing city’s land, there are a lot of options and opportunities for the very centre, and even a few options for the parks around it.
Some options for the parks include walkways and running tracks and bike baths.
Along with all of that are many things that go with the buildings, like each one big enough to having a public use bathroom (doesn’t need to be a huge bathroom) and there being tunnels to each building for many different functions currently done by vehicles like mail and grocery delivery and garbage/recycling (along with a different method for sorting recycling to the point that garbage technically isn’t a thing anymore and there’s no real sorting of recycling either, it’s all done by whoever throws it out, of course things that can’t be recycled currently would go to different storage places like landfills, but possibly just in marked bags at a regular landfill until the idea is more readily adopted) and bicycle parking in at least residential buildings.
Another thing each building will have is fire suppression to the point of also extinguishing fires outside of the buildings and the ability to extinguish fires in adjacent buildings where the fire suppression may have somehow failed.
Services like paramedics and police (restructured police of course) will operate in a very different manner where transportation is only done one way and associated equipment will already be stored in all the buildings, meaning each building is effectively an ambulance and a cop car and paramedics and officers will live in each building (they’re all residential too so it works well) and they will be on call in different shifts, meaning they get paid for being there, failure to do so if called can result in the on call pay being removed until the next successful response.
Both of which will have special keys to facilitate emergency transportation on the trains, this will make all trains pull into the stop ahead of them except the ones behind the location the key is used, and a message or alarm will notify people to get off if they can and take the next train, this will require two directions and one transfer before the destination but will mean response time is substantially quicker.
Any disruption to regular scheduled service will be solved by everyone exiting and going across to the other direction for that block and taking the train back a stop and going across to the right direction and skipping the disrupted stop, this is only for disruptions that result in a blocked stop, other disruptions will be solved by just taking the next train.
Scheduled times will depend on the block size and city size but should be close to 5 minutes give or take.
The pathways will consist of a sidewalk and slow and fast bike lanes, mirrored on each side and will be placed in a way that allows somewhat easy removal for access and they will be reflective enough not to absorb energy from the sun but not to damage eyes, and they will have heating coils or fluid loops to allow warming to prevent snow buildup and ease in plowing.
Utilities will be in tunnels also and will be designed to allow safe maintenance by a person or machine, this may involve full disruption of utilities along that pathway to make repairs safer and easier, and that method may allow utilities to share a tunnel like water and electricity and gas (may end up being biogas or hydrogen instead) where the water is of course in its own pipe, two thing about sewage is the tunnels will be double lined and there may actually be two types where toilets get a separate system and may run from salt water if feasible just to save on filtration efforts and waste.
Electric transformers and possibly substations will be under the pathways and possibly in the space under blocks, and may be accessible two ways if done right, one is by the train and the other is using a special vehicle that can lift and lower and transport these transformers by driving over an opening made in the bike lanes and perching itself on the sidewalks.
Many services will change the way they work, I’ve already gone over a few but less notable is the mail where the job descriptions will change and mail sorting will be done in the city somewhere and delivered through the tunnels in batches based on buildings (or based on blocks and separated by building from there) and the job that usually drives the trucks and delivers mail to P.O. Boxes would instead deliver to residents unable to easily go down to the lobby and check their mail, and others on the same floor if they opt for it.
The mail system would use one or two tunnels, where one system is slower but takes less infrastructure but the other is faster and less complicated.
Large items would use the cargo function of the trains.
Currier companies would not be a thing here unless they wanted to ride the train and hand deliver to individuals.
Maintenance and everything like that (residential/business maintenance and repair technicians along with maintenance for the city itself) would be done by rail and on foot, carrying tools, equipment, and parts to the destination in bags and toolboxes, including rail maintenance being done by a special rail vehicle or even just adapted to a standard train.
That’s basically it for the physical aspects of the city other than things I may have missed and the parts outside the main city.
Beyond the main city is the industrial area, that’s just past the city in line with the train, those are the businesses and factories that support the main city both in products and resources and financially in exports, the train will load and unload through a perpendicular train here.
Surrounding the main city is a circular walkway to get to parts of the city and get lower speed exercise.
Just outside of that is a wall or fence or series of bollards to protect the city, and just in front of those is a series of food trucks and food stands and kiosks, some serving outward of the city and some serving facing each other with picnic benches between to eat at.
Just outside of that is a raised deck type walkway that people can stand on and order and be safe.
Just outside of that is the dirt or paved pathway for people to get from the previous section to the next section.
Just outside of that is the only pathway for cars that technically counts as part of the city, and that’s for them to both get past the city and to park, this ring around the city may have interruptions and only be a partial ring if an uninterrupted view is desired as part of the city.
Just outside of that is the actual parking and the highways (in and out of the city but limited to at most one for each main direction) where parking will have a system to mark a space for each car to avoid issues and fights, and the highway will have speed reduction measures and physical protection in the event of failure to reduce speed, the highway may also include a way to power electric vehicles to help transition them away from using all the lithium before hopefully being phased out.
Just outside of the parking ring is a stepped viewing area to view whatever the outside of the city has to offer for views.
Outside of that main city encompassing ring is where farmland will go, and that will be automated other than areas closer into the city where it’s less straight, that will be an optional area for growing organic foods and meats.
Somewhere in one of those two areas will be a slaughterhouse to keep it away from the city for many reasons.
Transportation from those areas will be done by a separate train that will meet up with the main train to transfer passengers and cargo, this train will also meet up with the trolly from the suburb area (small area) before meeting with the main train.
Some cities will have a meadow or forest or waterfront area to one side or a mixture of them.
Now you have an idea of what the city would look like, but there are also pseudo political aspects.
The hardest part is not letting anyone control the city or buildings in the name of profit.
No building will be owned but no one will be without a place to live.
Other than the business zone apartments everything will be equal in quality and size based on room quantity (other than possible studio apartments for artists) that way prices can also remain similar or the same.
All rents will be paid in taxes which benefits the city, and the option to pay a large deposit to reduce rent will be possible, this deposit will track with value of key items.
This means that the city is effectively the landlord for everyone including businesses which allows rules like prices and wages to be specified along with breaking department stores into separate departments to keep from them wasting space on overpriced items that other stores sell cheaper or better quality of, and any other stipulation that benefits the customers and employees and protects them.
Things like a UBI and rent control would be possible within the city and things to prevent or stop other injustices like racism and sexism and anything I can’t seem to think of right now would be able to be put in place.
Once one of these cities is built it can grow funding to build another and work the way to overcoming and converting existing cities that won’t sell the land off cheap.
Once everyone who wants the car free life has a car free place to live, expansion to accepting people from other countries can happen and that changes a lot of things on the world stage.
Additionally facilities for sports can be accommodated and possibly snuck in as a whole radii themselves between business and the centre or business and the more industrial businesses.
One of these sports can be driving related, to get that out of peoples systems, like tracks or drag strips or even rallies.
Another addition is workshops for people to use for creativity. The addition of these types of things increases the size of the city however.
An additional benefit of the elevators and subways going everywhere is that it massively increases accessibility.

Fic: Closing Time (Johnny Utah x fem!reader)
Summary: You work at a clothing store, you get a last minute customer at closing time and sexy tims happen.
Pairing: Johnny Utah x fem!reader
Author’s Notes: So I’m slowly getting back to writing. I’m not gonna say I’m fully back just yet, but for this week at least, there will be content! Huge thanks to @toomanystoriessolittletime and @meetmeinthematinee for being cheerleaders and giving me early feedback on this!
Wordcount: 3125
Warnings: smut. oral sex (F! receiving); dirty talk; unprotected sex with strangers (don’t do this kids!); sex in inappropriate places.
Most days you quite enjoyed it when there was barely any movement at the store. It gave you the opportunity of just being by yourself, reading a book, or enjoying some music or studying for college, things that you didn’t always have the privacy of doing at your dorm because your roommate seemed to always be around. Even during the summer and what was up with that? Didn’t she have better things to do?
She wasn’t like you, who actually had to work to put yourself through college and took some extra jobs during the summer so you could have some savings for the following term when all you managed to get were part-time jobs that you had fit in between classes and paid shit.
Fortunately, at the shop, you had some peace and time for yourself. It was a tiny, hole-in-the-wall sort of place around Venice Beach where tourists could get some shirts and other knickknacks to take back home and locals surfers could find cheap clothing and supplies for a day out on the beach. Most days, you worked from 9-5 and after your shift, you could head to the beach, spread your towel on the sand and enjoy the gorgeous Californian sunset. However, as the summer winded out and the fall winds blew the scalding hot weather into simmering heat, your boss let you close a little early, especially on Tuesdays, when most tourists had already headed home and the new arrivals hadn’t landed yet so there were barely any customers around.
Your plan today had been to finish your reading for class and start the new crime thriller you picked up at the used books store on your way to work. Except, today you were just too restless to focus. You must have reread the same paragraph of your textbook twenty times before you gave up and set it aside, giving the other book a go, but it was just as unsuccessful at holding your attention.
So instead, you moved around the cramped space, adjusting the decoration items, dusting off shelves, and refolding every single shirt in the display until it was perfectly symmetrical while you willed time to move faster so you could end this day. Maybe it was the heatwave that had made an appearance turning the air in the shop stifling and all you had to help you was an old and slow fan that made more noise than blow air. The A/C was busted and your boss still hadn’t called someone to fix it.
Another possibility was the fact that you had to keep the glass doors opened to help circulate a little air and every time any kind of wind blew or someone walked in, it brought with them the crisp smell of salt and sand that always made you ache for the ocean and fight against the temptation of just abandoning everything and heading for the beach so you could cool off taking a dip in the deliciously cold water. Either way, you kept checking the slow ticking of the clock hands, counting the seconds before you could turn the closed sign.
When the minute hand finally hit twelve, you let out a cheer, jumping off your stool and taking a step towards the door. You always locked the doors first to discourage most last-minute walk-ins while you closed the register, put away the money in the back office safe, and slipped out of the store through the back door, taking any garbage with you to throw in the dumpster outside.
Before you could move from behind the counter, a man stepped into the store and you groaned low in your throat. Of-fucking-course! It was like they stood in wait to come in at the precise moment you were about to head out.
“Hey, you’re still open, right?” He asked, pushing the overgrown dark hair back from his forehead and offering you an unsure smile. You felt the urge to lie and say that no, you were closed and he should come back tomorrow.
“Yeah, sure.” You said instead placing your best and most fake seller’s smile. “Feel free to look around and let me know if you need help.”
“Thanks!” He replied, flashing a wider smile that showed a small dimple, before moving towards the shirts in the display while you made your way to the main entrance, flipped the sign, and locked the door to bar any other walk-ins.
You hung back while the guy browsed the options, taking a moment to assess him. He didn’t look like a tourist, but also not fully like a local. Most Californian guys that you knew had the most horrifying hair cuts or bleach jobs you had ever seen and that was not the case for the man in front of you.
His hair was dark brown, a little shaggy from too much exposure to sun and salt and it flopped a little over his forehead, just above his eyes. He wore a grey cropped t-shirt that had definitely seen better days and struggled to contain his broad shoulders, showing a peek of toned abs. His jeans were ridiculously tight and hung low on his slender hips, the light-wash of the denim accentuating the perfect bubble butt and for the love of God, you needed to get laid. Badly.
“Excuse me,” he called, startling you and you prayed he hadn’t noticed the way you were checking his ass just now. “Do you have this one in black?”
“Yeah, sure.” You moved towards the drawers. “What’s your usual size? Medium or large?”
“I think large should be good,” he replied and when you turned around with the requested shirt, he was just standing there, barechested, his top hanging from his shoulder and you hoped your gasp wasn’t as loud as it sounded in your head.
“Here you go,” you croaked, offering him the shirt. “We do have a fitting room…” you gestured towards the small cubicle to the rear of the store.
“Oh right!” He glanced over as he pulled the shirt on. “Do you mind if I try them out here, though?”
“Not at all,” you forced your voice to sound somewhat normal.
“Awesome!”
Damn! He wasn’t just fucking hot. He was also cute, the wide grin he just flashed giving him a boyish look that was only enhanced by the almond-shaped chocolate-colored eyes. Biting your lip, you watched as he turned side to side in front of the mirror, checking himself out.
“It think is a little too big,” he said, meeting your gaze. “What do you think?”
“Well…” you cleared your throat and moved closer so you could look at him through the mirror. “If you want it more fitted, then yeah, probably a smaller size would be best. Want me to get it?”
“Yeah, thanks.”
Once again, by the time you turned back to him, he was shirtless, the garment he had just tried neatly folded and resting on the shelf as he took a look at some other shirts, his attention snapping at you when he noticed you coming closer to hand him the new shirt, giving you a glimpse of a pale, sunken scar running down his abs that stopped just above his belly button and that drew attention to the small trail of fine dark hairs that disappeared under the waist of his jeans and holy shit! He was bare beneath those jeans.
“Bike accident,” he commented as he took the shirt that you offered and you met his eyes in confusion.
“What?” You asked, mouth suddenly dry.
“The scar,” he clarified, putting on the shirt and his lips were tilted into a slight smirk. “That was what you were staring at, right?”
“Right,” you agreed, feeling your face burning. “I’ll just head to the register and give you some privacy.”
I don’t mind,” he shrugged, turning to the mirror. “This is better. What do you think?” He turned towards you, giving you a full view of the cotton fabric covering his muscles, looking almost as if painted on him.
“Sure...” you swallowed hard, trying not to stare. “If you prefer it more fitted...”
“I do,” pulling the shirt off and once again giving you the glorious view of his torso. “I’ll take it.”
You took the shirt to the register and he followed, pausing only to pick up his own, which he had discarded on a nearby hanger. You were expecting him to put it back on, but he just threw it over his shoulder, reaching for his wallet as you registered the sale and tried not to stare.
“Is that the only camera you have around here?” He asked, gesturing to a point above your left and you glanced at the object before nodding, exchanging the money he gave you for the paper bag with his purchase.
“Yeah, why?”
“So basically...” he started, taking a step to the side, closer to the fitting room. “I’m completely out of sight over here?”
“Basically, yeah,” you frowned a little, stepping away from the counter. “Why? Are you planning to rob the place? Because let me tell you, there’s not much worth...” You trailed off with a surprised squeak as he tugged on your hand, pulling you over to the blindspot and nearly pressed against his strong chest.
“Because honestly, I never really gave a fuck about the shirt. I just thought you were beautiful and wanted to ask your number when I walked in, but you looked kind pissed so I got cold feet,” he confessed with a rueful smile.
“So you decided to just get mostly naked in front of me?” You snorted, shaking your head and he shrugged.
“Needed to make sure you might be interested and considering the way you were eyeing me earlier, it looked like you saw something you liked.”
“You’re really sure of yourself, aren’t you?” You arched an eyebrow at him, not ready to concede just yet. Even if the heat of his body and the smell of sea breeze whiffing off his skin were driving you crazy.
“Only when I’m right,” he flashed you a lopsided smirk and just waited, gazing into your eyes, making it clear that the next step was yours.
Part of you screamed that it was crazy to even consider hooking up with a guy that just walked into your store, no matter how hot he was, but it had been a ridiculously long time since you last had sex and he was so fucking hot, the scent of his golden skin intoxicating and his heat was making you dizzy with want as you looked him up and down, noticing the volume pressing against the denim of his pants.
“We might not have cameras, but the windows are see-through, so get your ass to the fitting room while I finish closing up.”
He flashed a victorious smirk and nodded, heading towards the back while you rushed through the steps of securing the store before joining him.
Your heart was pounding with anticipation as you made your way towards the back, pushing away the curtain that blocked the small space of the fitting room and finding him perched on the low stool that you kept there so customers could put down their things, facing the full-length mirror, legs spread, jeans undone, revealing the bush of dark hairs surrounding his long and thick cock.
You nearly whimpered at the sight, your center pulsing in want as you leaned against the doorframe, watching him as he run his left hand up and down his shaft, head tilted back, breathing hard, eyes hooded. He was such a beautiful and debauched sight that you felt the urge to photograph him, capture that sensuality.
“Are you just gonna stand there and watch?” He asked, eyes meeting yours through the reflective surface.
“You seemed to be doing fine on your own,” you teased stepping into the tight space, fingers itching to touch all that glorious skin.
“I did not just spend most of my afternoon at the corner diner, drinking burned coffee just to jerk off in front of you,” he declared, standing up and turning your way.
“Ohhh, so this was premeditated?” You asked, kicking off your sneakers as he reached for you and you stumbled against his chest.
“A little bit, yeah,” he admitted, large hand hot against your hips and you wanted to feel it against your flesh. “You probably don’t remember, but I was here last week and you had to bend over to get something from one of the lower drawers...” he let out a soft groan, hands moving to your ass and squeezing lightly. “Fuck! I don’t think I ever popped a boner so fast in my life. I had to get out.”
You vaguely remembered that. There was so much coming and going in this place, it was hard to keep track of faces, but customers just taking off after asking to see something usually caused an impression. If you weren’t about to get fucked after six months, you would be more pissed.
“So you decided to come back when I was alone and seduce me?” you asked, running your hands over his chest and abs, scratching it slightly and goosebumps rose in his skin as he hissed.
“Yeah,” he spoke in a low voice as his hands move to the button of your jeans. “I’ve been thinking about you all week,” he slid your fly down and your breath caught in your throat. “I thought about bending you over that counter and fucking you until you’re screaming.” His fingers skimmed over your cunt, just a soft touch, but you gasped and arched your hips forward, holding onto his arms to steady yourself. “I thought about it eating your pussy and your ass until you’re begging me to fuck you.”
Those words were whispered right against your ear, before he changed your positions, crowding you against the mirror and pushing your jeans down to your thighs before he once against skimmed his fingers over covered sex, making you ache for him.
“What do you think about that?” He asked, lips brushing your cheek in an almost chaste kiss, completely opposed to the lewdness of his hand exploring your cunt. “Do you want it?”
“If you’re as good with your tongue at eating pussy like you are at talking dirty, then I maybe I do,” you declared, tired of his teasing and you felt his smirk as he gracefully slid to his knees in front of you.
You didn’t manage to get another word out before he shoved your panties down to join your jeans and his lips firmly connected to your clit. He gave it a sharp suck and you groaned, burying your fingers into his hair to keep yourself on your feet as your brain short-circuited and your knees turned to jelly.
He was very good at eating you out, especially because he was very attentive to every sound you made, every tightening of your grip on his hair, and roll of your hips to nudge him into going faster or slower, harder or softer... It wasn’t long before he reached that perfect alternation of fast flickering against your clit and slower and broad strokes of his tongue over your entrance and lips, a combination that drove you crazy.
You were whimpering and moaning, legs quaking with the alternating urge to close them around his face to keep him trapped there pleasuring you forever or spreading them wider so he could have more space to work, but the edges of your jeans were digging into the lower part of your knees, signaling you that that was as far as they could go.
As if reading your thoughts or maybe he just realized he would need more room, he shoved your pants down and helped you to kick them off so you could be completely free of the garment. And didn’t you two looked like a mismatched pair, with you standing there wearing only your top while he knelt in front of you, his jeans still on.
Once your pants were off, he hooked your right thigh over his shoulder, pressing his mouth even harder against your cunt, flickering his tongue over your clit before dipping it in between your lips, gathering the juices soaking your sex like a starved man.
“Fuck! I’m so close...” you hissed, rolling your hips, seeking more because that tight knot deep inside you was about to snap and from the way you ached and shuddered, your muscles tensing, you knew it would be a hard one.
“Yeah?” He mumbled against your core, his breath against your overheated skin making you shiver as he pushed two fingers inside you. “Gonna cum all over my mouth?”
He pistoled his fingers in and out at a fast pace, crooking inwards with every down motion, his tongue matching his rhythm against your clit and it was that made you snap as you bit down on your fist to stop yourself from shouting as your body was flooded with pleasure and all you knew was the unbelievable bliss that surrounded you. Stars bust behind your closed lids, the air came out of your lungs in short gushes as you fought hard not to slide down to the ground because your legs felt like jelly.
“Ok?” he asked, making you finally snap your eyes open to look at him.
He was sitting on his heels, face still glistening with your orgasm, his lips swollen and red from the abuse. His cock was rock hard, red, and leaking and you really wanted to return the favor.
“Way better than ok,” you replied with a gasp. “My turn?” To your surprise, he shook his head and got to his feet.
“Tonight, the only place I’m cumming is in that pussy,” he announced against your ear and shivered with anticipation. “So let’s get out of this fucking store and go to my place?”
“Fuck yes!” you grinned breathlessly at him as you reached for your jeans and he buttoned his over his hard cock and that couldn’t be comfortable.
“I’m Johnny, by the way,” he said. “Johnny Utah. Just in case you want to know what to shout when I fuck your brains out later.”
You rolled your eyes at his cheeky smirk and moved closer to him, once fully clothed, the only evidence of your recent climax was the sweat cooling on your skin and the stupid grin that refused to leave your face.
“I think I like you more when your mouth is busy with something other than talking,” you declared and before Johnny could manage a reply, you silenced him with a kiss, tasting yourself in his tongue.

Little Girl. (Younger!Nine/Wookjin x You)
•TRIGGER WARNING•
Warning(s): Semi-Noncon, humiliation, degradation, size kink, fingering, slapping, hair pulling, choking, strong language, older!y/n, spanking, wedging, a dash of fear kink. Read at your own risk. Both of you are of legal age in this.
The air in Y/n's apartment was thick with tension as she awkwardly nodded at Wookjin, the son of her kind neighbour lady seated comfortably on the couch in her living room as she fumbled through one of her drawers, grabbing the teaching notes she needed to help the boy with, still clad in her work clothes which were a tight black pencil skirt and a pretty peach dress shirt, feet bare.
Wookjin bit his lip as she looked her tight ass up and down from behind since she was crouching to level herself with the piece of furniture. The boy was struggling to fight the urge to undo the high professional bun her hair was in. It looked so pretty when it was down, flowing down her shoulders and ending just above her waist. Fuck. She was so beautiful. It was a shame how she was all smiles with him when she first moved in the apartment complex but started avoiding him when she learnt that he was just a college sophomore.
Y/n sighed as she dropped a booklet yet again, trying to suppress the shudder in her fingers. Although she had her back to the boy, the woman knew he was staring. God damn. He was always fucking staring. She hated it. If it weren't for his friendly and kind mother, she never would have agreed to tutor Wookjin.
She wanted to smack herself for being so stupid. Without knowing his age Y/n had so stupidly flirted with him here and there when she first moved in. Only to find out that he was 5 fucking years younger than her.
And the fact that his door was right opposite to hers didn't fucking help.
"O- Okay!" Finally standing up with the materials and notes she needed, Y/n softly pulled in a long breath, closing the drawer with her foot before whipping around. "Let's sta-" a surprised scream escaped the girl, the bunch in her hand falling down on the ground when she came chest to face contact with the younger one, blinking up at him in surprise, unconsciously gulping down a bike.
"W- What are you doing, Wookjin?" Her voice broke towards the end of the sentence, breath hitching as she reflexively tried to step back, ass hitting the chest of drawers.
"Tsk. Don't hurt that pretty little butt now." The woman's cheeks flushed hot at his vulgar words, heart leaping up in her throat when he placed his hand on the piece of furniture besides her, leaning down to level his face to her smaller height.
"W- Wookjin! What is this-!"
"Tsk." Using the back of his hand to lightly slap her pretty lips, the boy clicked his tongue. "Funny how you talk so much yet go mute whenever I am around" inching his lips closer to the female's, Wookjin stared down at her pretty lips, breaths getting heavier against them. "What did I even do, hm? One moment you were acting like you wanted me to fuck all your holes numb the next you started avoiding me for no reason." Before he could stop himself, his slender fingers wrapped around her pretty neck.
Fuck. It felt even better than he'd imagined. So soft, so thin, so pretty and vulnerable.
He felt his cock getting hard.
"Hm?" Raising an eyebrow he trailed his fingers up and towards her jaw, cupping it before his thumb rubbed her luscious bottom lip. "Cat got your tongue again, hm?"
Y/n felt tears welling up in her eyes. Fuck. She felt so small and weak. Body frozen. "T- This is... wrong" was the only thing she could whisper helplessly. So wrong yet so good. But she didn't want to admit it. "I- I am older-"
"Tsk." Closing the distance between them in a swift motion, Wookjin pressed his lips against hers, almost moaning at the heavenly feeling. Fuck. They were so wet and soft. "Seriously?" He whispered against her lips after pulling back, other hand trailing up her sides. "That's your lame reason? Age doesn't determine anything. If you're a weak little girl who needs someone to take care of her you just are-"
"N- No!" Her features hardened, displeasing the boy as she tried to stop the hand that was travelling down to her ass, weakly pushing at his strong chest. "I am n- not weak! This is wrong! I knew this was a bad idea! Get ou-" her words locked up in her throat in surprise when a soft slap was placed on her cheek.
"Really? Funny you say that because I see you struggling with basic tasks around the complex all the time. It's quite pathetic actually. How someone your age still can't do basic things properly. A surprise how you secured this job you have honestly." Y/n's cheeks glowed red in embarrassment at his words.
Fuck. She hated how his words effected her. From the butterflies in her stomach all the way down south.
No. Wookjin was so much younger than her. He was basically a kid and she was a university lecturer. How could she let him treat her like that and make her feel do small?
And just why the fuck did she like it?
Ugh.
Her head was spinning.
"S- Shut… up" the boy threw his head back and let out a loud laugh at her petty little words.
"Aw is that the best you've got, huh little girl?" Shaking his head, he whipped the older around and forcefully pushed her against the chest of drawers, not hesitating to rip her tight little skirt all the way up to her ass, pulling at the g-string she was wearing underneath in a harsh and humiliating wedgie, landing slaps on her ass.
"Look at this pathetic little thing thinking she can decide things around here. Tsk." Y/n bit down on her bottom lip, helplessly gripping the furniture as her face burnt in embarrassment, toes barely touching the ground due to the wedgie she was in.
Fuck. It hurt so good. She hated it.
"Quiet again, huh?" Squeezing and pulling at one of her fat ass cheeks, Wookjin landed another harsh spank, pulling the wedgie up and down. "Good. Little girls like you should stay quiet and let Daddy take care of them. That's when they're the prettiest" her chest was heaving up and down, ass crack, pussy and butt cheeks on fire from the assault they were under.
The woman how good it felt. She felt so vulnerable and weak. So helpless. And then being treated like such a small little thing by someone so much younger that she'd tried to act all big in front of.
An involuntary moan escaped her when Wookjin moved the string covering her vaginal opening to the side, still having her hanging from the wedgie. "Let's take a look at Daddy's property, shall we?" Followed by a deep chuckle. "Would you look at that!" Y/n's whole body jerked forward from the harsh smack her pussy received. "Acting all innocent and like you don't like it but actually pathetically dripping down there, tsk."
Leaning forward and over her back, the boy placed his chin on her shoulder, middle finger slowly stroking her swollen folds. "But you actually love this, don't you? You filthy little thing" biting down on her ear lobe, the male pulled at it, rubbing her flesh in circular motions, fingertip prodding her entrance. "Being taken care of by Daddy because you're clearly so pathetic on your own." Biting down on her lips, Y/n felt sweat trickling down the back of her thighs, knees trembling and pussy clenching at how good it all felt. "So desperate that you'd let someone so much younger than you put you in your little place."
"P- Please!" The girl whined at last when she felt his covered erection graze against her asshole, the hole clenching in defense. "Please!" Sweat broke down on her forehead, another whine escaping her.
"Please what?" Wookjin breathed in her ear, kissing down her neck and biting the soft skin of her neck softly.
She was so going to regret this when it was over. But Y/n figured she could worry about that later.
"P- Please, W- Wookjin… m- more…" A grin spread across his devilishly handsome face when he heard the words, getting even hard at how pretty she sounded. "P- Please… please… T- Take care of me, D- Daddy… Hhhhaahhhh~" her eyes rolled to the back of her head when his finger slipped in the tight ring of muscles of her virgin pussy.
Yes. You heard it right.
"Good slut…" The boy praised, letting go of the wedgie and allowing her to stand on her feet, gripping her throat and choking her again, pushing her face all the way back and kissing her soft lips upside down, pushing his tongue in and exchanging saliva, finger fucking her tight pussy steady and good. "How does my pretty whore feel?" Letting go of her throat, he messily undid her hair, painfully aroused himself.
"S- So good!" Tears leaked out of her eyes as she cried from the pleasure. Y/n looked so pretty it was blowing Wookjin's mind. Beautiful face red, pretty eyes red eyes full of tears, breaths heavy, skin covered in sweat, legs spread as her underwear laid stretched out on one side, disheveled hair decorating her body and pupils delated, a hickey forming on her neck. "P- Please, more!"
"Fuck!" The boy whispered impatiently, plopping his fingers out of her to have the girl whined with a pout, chuckling deeply before turning her around by the help of her hair, putting her up on the piece of furniture before ripping her shirt open along her bra.
"S- Shit… you're so strong" a smug grin etched on the boy's face at her words as he pushed all the ripped fabrics out of the way, cupping her soft and fat breasts, feeling her hard numbs with the pad of his thumbs, biting his lip when she moaned from the feeling of having her tits massaged.
"Ready, little girl?" Unbuckling his pants, Wookjin uncovered his hard erection, pumping it up and down before smirking. "Brace yourself here I come ready or not~" He loved the worried look on her face as she stared at his huge cock.
"Is it even normal for it to be that big?" She innocently asked, blinking at the boy with her legs spread wide, hands out of the way and fat tits glistening with sweat.
"Awww look at this cute whore being so inexperienced" the boy cooed, wrapping his hands in her hair and aligning his tip with entrance with the help of the other. "Not that I am complaining though-" his words were cut short into a low gasp when he slowly entered her slightly fucked open virgin entrance, grunting at how her walls hugged him. "Fuck!"
"I- I've never done this before with anyone… n- not even myself…" Throwing her head back, the girl cried out, clenching around Wookjin's fat cock in defense, thighs trembling as she felt his lips wrap around one of her nipples, tongue swirling around the fat nub. "B- Because no matter how hard I tried… i- it never felt good, Daddy! Ever!" The woman whined needily, relishing in the pain. "I- It hurts so good, Daddy… Y- You're so good!"
Wookjin fucked her harder upon hearing the confession, grabbing her throat and squeezing the air out of her, biting her other nipple before pulling at it, slapping the other recently abused boob, fondling it before slapping it again, causing the girl to cry out.
"Because you were meant to be my cock sleeve only, babygirl. Of course nobody else can pleasure you like I can. Not even if you try, but-" gripping her soft cheeks, the boy pulled her red and teary face closer to his. "You wouldn't dare, would you?" Y/n whimpered from the frightening look in his eyes, gulping. "What? Didn't hear me?" Slapping her cheek, he gripped her face tightly again. "Answer when you're being spoken to!"
Y/n clenched around his cock, whining loudly before nodding hurriedly. "I- I wouldn't! Never! I would never! I am all y- yours!" She loved how he was treating her. Fuck. He was so good and more. It was perfect.
"Good girl." Wookjin smirked in a satisfied manner, pulling her closer on his cock and himself by her knee, making her scream because it caused his balls to slightly push in her now gaping hole. "Fuck, babygirl… you're much tighter than I'd imagined." Slapping her now bruised marked tits, the boy fucked her walls harder, starting to rub her clit.
The girl yelped, her back arching from the pleasure as she gripped at the younger's strong shoulders, nails digging into his skin and eyes hitting the back of her head from the pleasure, pussy expanding even more now that his balls were also ramming in and out of her, one of the male's hands groping her ass, middle finger stroking her hole which shrunk even smaller in defense.
Whining softly, Y/n's head weakly fell on one of his shoulders, chest heaving up and down as she trembled from the pleasure, softly nibbling on the skin of his neck.
The male chuckled devilishly, prodding her butthole teasingly with the tip of his finger while snapping his hips swift and rough. "Not yet?" He referred towards anal, ignoring the stuff that was falling off the chest from how hard he was fucking her, the loud banging noise of the furniture hitting the wall eliminating the silence in the apartment.
"That's alright, babygirl. We'll get there. None of us are going anywhere, after all."
