Replace Cyclists With Geese

Geese have never requested a bike lane. They use paths, lawns, ponds, parking lots, and occasionally the road. A goose will warn you.

This campaign proposes replacing cyclists with Canada geese on shared paths. Municipal authorities have not responded.

IMPORTANT Canada geese use honks, barks, cackles, and hisses. Recordings are available.

Honk if you agree

Add one honk to the public record. The goose is not notified.

3,246 people have honked their agreement

The complaint

A bicycle passing close and fast on a walking path can frighten a child before a bell helps. This is the serious part of the website.

Unrelated goose fact: some Canada geese remain in the same region through winter. They live here now.

Goose of the month

The Wawa Goose

Wawa erected its first goose beside the new highway in 1960. It lasted three years. The current stainless-steel goose arrived in 2017.
