Think about doing an escort quest where the NPC walks at 25% your speed and how irritating it is to have to keep waiting for them. Now imagine the NPC moves at %0.0025 or your speed instead. If he ever wants to travel with any companions, this might be more to protect his sanity than anything.
Most useless superhero accessory

He could just pick up the npc. Not like he’s never been shown to accelerate mere mortal fleshbags to relativistic speeds almost instantaneously.
SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I don’t read comics but I’ve hung out with enough comic nerds to pick up secondhand that the speed force and power cosmic are just straight bullshit. They do whatever. Think you found a problem or plot hole? Nah, magical powers specifically address that. Because magic.
bruhduh@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Those assassins creed flashbacks, oh my god
MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
The bike’s just for impressing the ladies. That’s the greatest superpower of them all!
WarmSoda@lemm.ee 5 weeks ago
And people say Batman doesn’t have any powers
Passerby6497@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Nah, he’s rich. That’s a real superpower (as we see in the real world far too often)
WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Chicks love the car.
The_Tired_Horizon@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
In the comic he loses his/the speedforce. Could imagine it was from that, but deep down I know it was just a toy companytrying to sell parents junky toys.

Like Spiderman’s car
dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I dunno. I think this is good for Flash. To paraphrase SolidJJ:
Flash: So, to you, I’m moving faster than the speed of sound, circling the globe. But to me, that’s walking. Just. Walking. For like a year.
Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I’m not understanding. So for the Flash, he’s bored of walking and driving a motorcycle is much more entertaining?
papertowels@lemmy.one 5 weeks ago
It’s taking the elevator in a two story building.
kksgandhi@lemmy.ml 5 weeks ago
Maybe he’s physically tired, and is ok getting somewhere slow.
caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 5 weeks ago
I mean, he probably still gets tired
couch1potato@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 weeks ago
He gets two tired
ScruffyDucky@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
He needs it to get to Chipotle when he’s very low on energy
Drinvictus@discuss.tchncs.de 5 weeks ago
Shadow the hedgehog also has a bike. Although Shadow’s bike is dope as fuck
Vilian@lemmy.ca 5 weeks ago
so not useless
niktemadur@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
For when he needs to go slower.
Like Eskimos use refrigerators to keep their food from freezing.aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
You reminded me that when I was 6 I had a dream where Superman showed me his new car.
(Not a car for Clark Kent, a SuperMobile.)

Lol why the duck does it have fists? Imagine being smacked by a plane flying past you?
Blackmist@feddit.uk 5 weeks ago
I’ve seen the super speed running effect in the movie. The bike is slower, but at least the other superheroes won’t take the piss when he uses it.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 weeks ago
I’m sure his legs get tired from all that running.
iAvicenna@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
do the velocities add up?
Daft_ish@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I don’t need to force my dog to pull me around in my red wagon. It’s just fun.
HBK@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 weeks ago
The_Tired_Horizon@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Its where he put the kids aint it? 😅
ScruffyDucky@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I don’t think so because he doesn’t have FREE SPEED written on it
WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
It’s a van, not a microwave.
MonkderDritte@feddit.de 5 weeks ago
Can’t even go offroad.
JoShmoe@ani.social 5 weeks ago
A more appropriate bike would have Delorean capabilities
realitista@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
All that runnin’ around has gotta get tiring after a while though, no?
boatsnhos931@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
It’s so those hos can see him flexing
Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
What do you think his shoes are made of though
tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 5 weeks ago
Speed.
robocall@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Tiny motorcycles
Mongostein@lemmy.ca 5 weeks ago
You all don’t realize he pedals it
colmear@discuss.tchncs.de 5 weeks ago
That would be a great idea. I mean, I am more than twice as fast on a bike than by foot and I can drive more than 10 times as far. Just imagine what Flash could accomplish with a bike
Mongostein@lemmy.ca 5 weeks ago
Now I’m picturing Flash pedalling his mountain bike to punch Darkseid in the face
KoalaUnknown@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I would assume the rubber and maybe even medal would all melt. Not to mention how hard it would be to control.
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 5 weeks ago
He moves it from location to location, piece by piece.
