Bike People, what are your thoughts on this kind of bike bag?

Somehow, #Costco was *out of carts*. I don't know how that happens. There were people waiting at the entrance, trailing other people to their cars to grab their carts.
"No sweat," I told the security people at the store entrance. "I brought my own cart."

Trying to think of something witty to say about the truck full of leafblowers blocking the bike lane (and parked facing the wrong direction) today but I'm all out of gas.

Yes, you can buy flowers and bring them home by #bike.

This morning's bike ride was 5 miles of meandering through the cemetery and also past it onto some streets.

But we need folks to haul band members in cargobikes, and other stuff. Can you help?

Lol, nope. #BikeNYC

If only #NYC would make good on its promise to give a car lane over to folks on foot and #bike, #BikeNYC folks might have a chance to avoid crashes on the dangerously narrow bikeway of the

Today I learned Minneapolis' bikeshare system, Nice Ride, shut down last year. We complain about how expensive the SF system (also run by Lyft) has gotten, but maybe we're lucky to have one at all? Ouch. #BikeTooter

Nice Ride shuts down pioneering Minneapolis bike share program
When Nice Ride launched in 2010, Minneapolis was one of only two American cities to have public bike sharing. The program helped pioneer the concept of micromobility, which has evolved to include electric scooters and e-bikes. But without a corporate sponsor, Nice Ride is shutting down.

I did a 5.3 mile bike ride this morning and followed it up with a 10 minute walk. The ride was a bit rough since I skipped the last two days due to being ill on Saturday evening.

When even the #WallStreetJournal reports on micro car, Microlino (1100 pound electric car modeled after the iconic 1950’s era BMW Isetta— front hatch and all)… you think there may be some hope that we self-correct carbon course on transportation.
Or… maybe this is the ‘gateway’ car for suburban moms not prepared to go full-on-cargo #bike to get kids and groceries to where they need to be.
I’m not looking for a car, but if I were, this would be right in my lane.

I rode my #bike today for the first time this year. Well, I tried to ride three weeks ago, the last time it was 18 degrees Celsius, but I had to abort then because my electronic shifters had no charge. But today I rode. It felt good. (I had to pump up the tire again. I need to get a new tube.) Also, April 5th is the same day I got back into bicycling in 2020 and was able to combine it with calisthe…

Looking forward to seeing this pilot effort to install #bike shelters in #Minneapolis come to fruition. MPS is a “bike city” that’s made substantial progress - with quite a bit of pushback - to develop needed #infrastructure

Minneapolis bike shelters pilot program might have e-bike charging
A Minneapolis pilot program will offer covered, locked bicycle shelters to better protect bikes, especially e-bikes, from theft and vandalism.

Since my beloved #vanmoof s3 #bike needs repair, which is not available since they went bankrupt, I went on and bought a #urwahn

Today’s cemetery bike ride… I tried to hit every path on the south side. Also my left hand got a little numb after the ride. (This was a slightly longer ride than usual.)

On one hand, I appreciate the new bike parking (I complained to them about the lack of it), and the spacing is good. On the other hand, it's 2024 and #NYC isn't doing staple racks? jfc!

I did a 5 mile ride this morning through the cemetery and over to Dineen Park, which was pretty nice. They've got 5 tennis courts and hopefully no pickleball!

🚴‍♂️ Biking isn't just eco-friendly; it's economy-friendly too! New studies show that bike lanes can boost local business sales significantly. It's time we rethink urban spaces and promote #cyclonomics for a greener and prosperous future. #CarIsOver
📈 A protected bike lane in NYC led to a 49% sales increase for local stores, overshadowing the city average. Bike tourism in Oregon generated $400M last year. Cycling is more than a ride; it's a major economic driver. #SustainableEconomy #BikeLaneBoost #ReclaimTheStreets

Was a bit frustrated and tired after work due to some false positives I couldn't figure out. Slept for two hours and then got up again to not loose a bike day in the Swiss #BikeToWork campaign and—more important 😉—to not break my #BikeStreak. It became yet another midnight ride, so in theory it …

In Oakland I came across this actually protected bike lane with concrete, not just a flexpost to cosplay protection. Hope this advanced technology becomes available west of the Bay someday. #bikeSF

The other ones are still going after more than a decade, not sure if they've shitted up their manufacturing process like everyone else?

Don Rafa's at 16th Street / South Van Ness is lowkey a great bike shop. Only open Mon-Fri and in a weird spot to bike to, but good people. Came in for a flat fix and they noticed my chain was dry and oiled it just as a courtesy #bikeSF

Still getting the hang of the Apple Pencil... here's a quick sketch I did (from a reference photo) of my bike, a Trek 7200.

"Can you take a look at my bike? My chain was skipping almost all the way home."
"Sure. The drivetrain's pretty old, it's probably time.." *looks* "What the fuck?? How did..?!"

Ohhhh shit it was cold out today. Only managed 3 miles... hands were freezing.

Incredible example of lying with graphs from Caltrans. The bike lane pilot on the Richmond–San Rafael Bridge reduced collisions, but they made it look like collisions increased.
Specifically, they divided collisions by vehicle miles traveled. But California's goal is to reduce vehicle miles traveled. So they took two good things achieved by the pilot, and made them cancel out to look like a bad thing. #BikeTooter

Motorcycle gang riding illegally and dangerously on the walk/bike only portion of Golden Gate Park today. Photo of the most aggressive and physically threatening rider. One encounter at 3:51pm and another at 4:08pm. 911 was helpful (one voice call and one text exchange). #GoldenGatePark #BikeTooter

Our route to Prospect Park (from Forest Hills) will be an hour and a half (13mi) instead of an hour (10mi) because there's no fucking bike infrastructure south of us. At all. OSM routing directions are like, "just take Union Turnpike!". lol, no. #BikeNYC

So our 3 weeks of winter is over? Time to take the studded tires off the bike? #BikeNYC #NYC

North side SF is full of 3-lane one way roads.
They all encourage dangerous speeding and do nothing to help people choose walking, transit, or biking to meet our climate goals.
Andrew Zieman was killed on one with this same layout.
They should all be immediately converted to 2 lanes plus a 2-way protected bikeway. Cheap, makes everyone safer (even drivers), massively expands bike network. #BikeSF

always feel a twinge of FOMO when I pass a nice fixie locked to a bike rack

Whew! Longest ride so far… 7.5 miles. Went through two cemeteries and a park. Saw a waterfall, ducks and geese, and even some neighbors!
The bad parts were puddles, unpaved roads, and slipping gears.

What an awesome ride. When they shut down car traffic for bikes, that difference in scale of infrastructure investment hits home

It feels like it’s an occupied zone.
I am feeling shame and sadness this morning.
