First bicycle tax in nation leaves bike-crazy Oregon riders deflated ... Democratic Gov. expected to sign excise tax
In Oregon, a state known for its avid bicycling culture, the state legislature’s approval of the first bike tax in the nation has fallen flat with riders.

Democratic Gov. Kate Brown is expected to sign the sweeping $5.3 billion transportation package, which includes a $15 excise tax on the sale of bicycles costing more than $200 with a wheel diameter of at least 26 inches.

“We are taxing the healthiest, most inexpensive, most environmentally friendly, most efficient, and most economically sustainable form of transportation ever devised by the human species,” Mr. Maus said.

And in a couple of years it won't be just the bicycles that cost more than $200 with a wheel diameter of at least 26 inches. It'll be all bicycles. We know all too well how this game is played.

I think this is fantastic. It may be the beginning of all those bicycle-riding Dems finally awakening to the fact their own political party is the problem in this country.

Next there will be a requirement for brake and signal lights.
Then a drivers license to use your bike on the roadways.
Then a tracking device on all bicycles.
And traffic tickets for bikes. And camera light tickets. hahahahaha

I really hate to see this happen because we're already being taxed for everything you can think of under the sun. I know that It's only a matter of time before this bicycle tax goes nationwide. And it won't stay at 15 dollars for long either. It'll be in the $100's before you know it.

Thanks for the pine mods!

Bikes in my state have got to have a flashing light on once it gets dark outside. Looks crazy as hell, like a strobe light as they ride by the house.

Mini license plates that would attach to the bikes were also pushed by my state several years ago, but thank God that idea got shot down.

I don't know what's considered a kids bike, but those damn other bikes need to contribute to the road tax. I am so pissed that they now think they own the damn streets and highways. Always riding in the car lanes, totally ignore there are sidewalks and shoulders they can rid their bike on. Heck, we even used taxpayer money for "bike trails" here and they still rid their damn bikes on the highway! Dammit, I pay my gas taxes to use the damn road and I thought there was a minimum speed limit! How come police don't enforce the minimum speed limit and start writing these guys tickets? I mean, you have car's behind you waiting bikers! Get off the damn road and put those bikes on the shoulder or sidewalk that is right beside you for petes sake.

Tax em. Tax the hell out of them. You know damn well they don't own cars and don't pay for any upkeep on the roads.

Ivanka Trump can have her new line of bicycles made in Ethiopia (where labor is even cheaper than it is in China) and sell those bikes here in America for under $200, making a nice profit, avoiding the tax, and screw these libturds up the ass!
