ooooh! 2 wheel bikes.

It disrespectful for Satmar chassidim to ride bicycles when Reb Yoelish went to such trouble to ensure his chassidim rode in cattle trucks.
Posted by: barry | April 24, 2015 at 09:00 AM
But Rav Mercury holds that, "I want to ride my bicycle. I want to ride my bike."

I praise the wisdom of the holy Satmar Rooov who brought this new level of kedusha to the yiddeshe welt.....
It's well known that the zionist tools Irving Trek and Melvin Schwinn are both puppets of the zionist regime and oppressors of the am-kedusha in Meah Sha'rim.
Posted by: Robert Wisler | April 24, 2015 at 09:11 AM
Probably because the Rosh Yeshiva can't figure out how to ride one.

Modesty issue? Serious question.

This calls for a mass bike ride in minimal legally-acceptable attire down Bedford Avenue from the bridge to Sheepshead Bay.
Posted by: S M L | April 24, 2015 at 09:22 AM
Now I understand why the city eliminated the bike lane from Bedford Ave. because if the Rabbis don't allow bikes why have all those bike lanes.
Posted by: yossi | April 24, 2015 at 09:36 AM
Two wheels are NO good....BUT two hands to accept food stamps, ssi , sect. 8 . etc....is OK ?
Posted by: ichaimJay | April 24, 2015 at 09:41 AM
I will have to get a tricycle oy.
Posted by: jancsibacsi | April 24, 2015 at 09:51 AM
OK, so can anyone who reads Yiddish well explain to us what the rationale is (as written down, and not what you would like them to have said)?

These are nazi edicts. Who is on first? And what happens to the 8 year old riding on Rodney St.? Is he beaten? Bicycle trashed?

Satmar, Satmar, I think you have lost a screw
You’re half-crazy, I wish you were not a Jew

Your rulings are such garbage
You’re just afraid

Are tricycles acceptable?
Posted by: tucsonjew | April 24, 2015 at 11:20 AM
I think i solved the mystery of why no bicycles are allowed,its that their balls will be damaged and they wont be able to father 15 children as their rebbes demand they do.
Posted by: jancsibacsi | April 24, 2015 at 12:08 PM
Another very slow day down in the basement LOL
Jancsi,
After this juvenile and idiotic comment of yours,you shouldn't be wondering why you are being known as the MARMAROSHER FERD
Posted by: JACK | April 24, 2015 at 12:31 PM
Jackyboy---You mindless stupidity in supertceeded by you insane hate for me and everyone who doesnt dance to your mechugas go to hell di farrikt beheime you are so stupid that there are no strong enough words that i can use here , you are one disturbed animal,raving lunatic that you are.
Posted by: jancsibacsi | April 24, 2015 at 12:39 PM
Sorry, Jancsi. It's just that i get angry with you but it's not Your fault, you see whenever I think of you my petzeleh gets hard and then I'm forced to take matters into my own hands.

Free country.
Private school.
If one doesn't like the rules ....choose another school or yeshiva .
Simple !.

You must be criminally insane. Only a sick, twisted roshah would attack an elderly Jewish immigrant.
Posted by: Joseph | April 24, 2015 at 03:18 PM
Wow I'm so far from this. I clean the shul and the adolescent boys break the chairs eat candy and break cups - like Tazmanian devils. I'm like, feed the beasts something to keep them busy. I'd give them bikes and tell them to knock themselves out. Maybe they can bike to red like districts and look in the windows and get into trouble? Maybe it makes sense given their georgraphy?

I guess bicycles dont mix with long white shirts. The boys will remain plump. Pass the fried cabbage with noodles please.

Interesting teshuva written by R. Ovadia Yosef about the legitimacy of riding bikes on Shabbes. Now.......in this "we can out-frum you" world.........
Posted by: Rebitzman | April 24, 2015 at 05:35 PM
instead of thanking g-d for the freedom to ride, enjoy a beautiful day and be able to smile and feel happy?

Give the Sarmarer circus clowns unicycles to ride around on.
I'll even donate some red noses.
Posted by: Shayna G in NZ | April 25, 2015 at 02:42 AM
barry- biting but true.
SML- great idea.
ichaimJay- True dat.
Sarek- Excellent.
Yochanan Lavie - touche.
jancsibacsi- Pay no attention to mindless Jack. Your reason makes as much sense as any other.
ruthie- Fun is against Satmar rules. It might lead to smiling.
Posted by: ah-pee-chorus | April 25, 2015 at 08:55 PM
use a scooter
Posted by: notayenta | April 25, 2015 at 09:07 PM
The real reason is the comparison.
It's like this: women have two legs, bikes have two wheels. Bicycles may get the men thinking about women instead of thinking about how they can make a Chillul Hashem by attacking Israel in the streets of NY.

Posted by: Joseph | April 24, 2015 at 03:18 PM
===========================================
When an elderly jewish immigrant constantly spews anti religious racist Nazi like hateful venom day and night,I not only have the right to attack him but have an obligation to do it,
this piece of human garbage has the audacity to constantly mention,how when he sees Hasidim with their payos,it reminds of the male sex organ,
besides being a vile jew hating bastard,this old senile fart is actually a stupid individual with whom you cannot carry on an intelligent conversation,thats why i consider this creature nothing but Shmaryah's little poodle and a MARMAROSHER FERD,
Come to think of it,i realy should not waste my time on this deranged individual,i will try to complete ignore this piece of garbage
Posted by: JACK | April 26, 2015 at 06:47 AM
Perhaps their tzitzis might get caught in the spokes of the wheels. Think Isadora Duncan. Besides, who knows what naarishkeit bike riding could lead to?
Posted by: BlackHatBT | April 26, 2015 at 12:58 PM
Literally, 60 years old news
Posted by: hhhhh | April 27, 2015 at 05:42 AM
In Israel its been illegal for years already. No Yeshiva allows the boys to ride bikes besides for vacation periods.
