The bike section is how we as a community meet up to make friends and admire the work on everyone’s bike. I understand we can be rowdy but completely removing us is a bit far given how much support we bring!
As a rider it is extremely disappointing that C&O does not support all riders on motorcycles to be there. C&O is the place where all automotive enthusiasts (cars & motorcycles) come together, to not have us (riders) there is awful. Many of us want to share our stories, inspire young children, and show our love for bikes.
I know many people whom have limited abilities.. I take my grandchildren to the park , currently have 8, one is nonverbal autistic and love to see him enjoy the outdoors/parks. My mother n mother-in-law both use walkers and it's difficult for them to get to most parks due to the accessibility to watch thier greats enjoy a park . I truly hope that we as a community can support our community by making better accessibility and understanding that everyone enjoys a Day at the Park . I do salute whomever keeps them clean , great job!
Urban heat islands are real. Having worked in South Seattle I know from lived experience there are not enough tress in South Seattle to keep people cool as temperatures rise.
There are people who simply fulfill their roles, and then there are those like Dr. Wilkins, the Dean of Students, who become heroes in the truest sense—not by grand gestures, but by showing up every single day, for the children, he has been a role model, a protector, and someone they can trust without hesitation. He has seen us, heard us, and treated us with a level of empathy and care that goes far beyond what’s expected.He may never wear a cape, but in our eyes, he is a hero.
RDO has been one of the biggest wastes of potential by a gaming company. Many players left because of the modders and lack of updates. However, it still has a strong loyal base of players, but they have been pushed aside for GTA. GTA gets Battleeye, RDO gets to watch our sessions taken over by modders and cheaters. GTA gets new cars and many garages and places to store them ... RDO has ONE stable and limited number of horses and only two wagons to buy. GTA can buy several places to live, RDO has a camp and Wilderness Camp that gives you an error most of the time when you use it. Rockstar needs to get rid of the cheaters/modders and with just a little effort on updating, they would be making money on RDO. It is one of the best games every created and to watch it die is nothing short of heartbreaking. - Jessica Stone.
Life-long gamer mom here: Let me put in my 2 cents...
Red Dead Online is a vast and immersive open-world multiplayer experience set in the untamed American frontier, yet it has been left to stagnate despite its incredible potential. The game boasts breathtaking landscapes, from snow-capped mountains to sun-soaked deserts, all rendered with stunning attention to detail, making every ride through the wilderness feel alive. The character design is rich, allowing for deep customization that fits the rugged, lawless world, while the existing story missions hint at the potential for deeper narratives filled with outlaws, bounty hunters, and desperate survival. With improved updates, Rockstar could introduce more dynamic events, expanded customization, and meaningful progression, breathing new life into a world that already stands as one of the most beautifully crafted in gaming history. A full revamp would not only honor the artistic brilliance of Red Dead Online but also provide players with the immersive frontier experience they’ve been craving.
