The bike lane is a great place to store these barrels when the speed limit is 35mph and cars tend to go 40 mph.
Last night I said "screw it" and used the sidewalk. I am against biking on the sidewalk (and it's illegal here) but if the provided (crappy) infrastructure isn't even available I'll do it.

First small tour with the new bikes in their area of operation, the Darß peninsula. Very happy with them, so much better than renting bikes!

I tried a new bike route to work today. I originally planned this due to some upcoming road closures but I really like it!
Minimal contact with cars and busy roads (except for the last 1.4 miles) and I get to use the new separated bike lane on Lisbon Avenue.
#milwaukee #bikeTooter…

My wife and me both have commitments during the day. So we just did a 2h cycling to our beautiful reservoir and back. It went really well and it felt good to be on the bike.
Especially as it's not so hot any more.
Enjoy your weekend!

The 360 camera is kind of fun for doing silly things...

I was hoping to bike to work today but it looks like rain… but it also looks like a good day to learn how to ride in the rain.

Back on the bike on the train, making intercity rail actually useful as a commuter option by using my own bicycle to extend their service area all the way from Home to Office.
I wish Metrolinx didn't have such regressive policies about me "inconveniencing" people who drove a half-ton truck 8km to the train station.

Eight days out from breaking my rib, I took my favourite bike out of the shed this afternoon for a wee ride, to see if by any chance I would be able to ride into Castle Douglas (40Km round trip) tomorrow to pick up my medicine.
I managed about two hundred metres.
The answer is 'no'.

After getting our new fridge, we packed our cycles and did a nice loop in the neighbourhood. It's been a bit warm but with enough water it went quite well.
Enjoy your Saturday!

It’s hard to find any information on this, because it’s obviously not what you normally do… Any idea to what pressure you can inflate a bicycle tube when *it is not inside a tire*?

My wife & kids are away (the kids at camp, my wife for a conference). As such, I have turned the living room into a proper bike shop. Currently 4 bikes in various states of repair - my wife's road bike, my father-in-law's brand new bike, the 9yo's new bike, and a folding bike. I have a new cassette for my mid-tail bike, too, but I think I'll order new tires first before I replace it. #BikeTooter

Anybody seen/used these 'Bike Lane Sweepers'

Added Power Grips (pedal straps) to my wife's #Brompton. Not going to say it's my nicest work, but I'm hopeful that it'll hold. I only drilled holes through the plastic reflectors; the metal is all intact. I can change that later if needed. #BikeTooter

Wear your helmet!

Naked bike ride is gonna get cheeky
The World Naked Bike Ride organizes in Milwaukee on Saturday.

RE: #BikeTooter community I guess

I biked 6 miles this morning. Felt pretty good. My back didn’t seem to mind… I did have a little knee pain at one point. (Which is one of the reasons I switched to an ebike.)
I may wait a bit to try biking to work, especially since it’s supposed to be 90 °F next week. 😭
#bikeTooter

I was biking near the queens zoo today, and adjusting the pedal-assist all the way up to 4 (which I never do). Thinking to myself, "Jesus fuck, is this headwind really that strong or is this heat just making me weak?"
I look over at the sidewalk, and someone is walking backwards to deal with the wind. "Oh, it's actually the headwind."
#BikeTooter

Because of a river, railroad tracks, freeway, and cemetery, this might be the most direct path for me to bike to work.
Some of it is separated bike lane, some is multi-use path, some is residential streets, and some is terrible roads with speeding cars.
#bikeTooter #milwaukee

Every now and then you come across something good in the bike lane…
(This is the third or fourth hammer I’ve found on the street in my lifetime.)

We tried out an Xtracycle (swoop) today. Alas, both kids (14yo and 9yo) did not fit. Glad we tried it out before buying it! #BikeTooter #CargoBikes

We expected rain (but no ⚡⛈️).
So we got our jackets, did our errands with our little bike trailer - and were lucky because it didn't even rain 💪
✅ Saved fuel again
✅ Physical activity
✅ Faster way to detach from work
✅ Saw a couple of cats
Totally recommended!

It’s been three weeks since spinal surgery so I did a little test ride around the neighborhood. Nothing impressive but, hey… gotta start small, right?
#bikeTooter

The sports medicine facility I go to for PT sent me a survey. The last question was a big text box to tell them about my experience so I wrote this:
“Overall a great experience. My only complaint is the bike rack in the parking structure that is super-cheap/poor quality and not even bolted down.”

Rode our new bikes to Pramort, the easternmost accessible point of the Zingst peninsula, where we saw a wild boar, deer, and many birds. About 60 km total.

I wonder how much it would cost to install a fright elevator in my house, opening up with big doors to the outside and then down to the basement so I could easily work on cargo bikes I'm the basement? That's nuts, though, right? I definitely shouldn't do that because.. Reasons? #BikeTooter

I'm a little behind in my biking this year due to the whole spine/nerve pain for the first half of the year.
But there is a chance I could still hit 1,000 miles this year. Here's hoping!

Volta a Catalunya Femenina stage 2 start in Sant Vicenç de Castellet
#voltacatalunyafeminina #cycling #biketooter #catalunya

Okay so I park my bike in the back hall at work and I jokingly scrawled "Bike Parking" in the dust on a large door.
And today there was a second bike!
Keep in mind only 8 people work here. I knew who it belonged to... they didn't bike in but dropped it off in case they need it due to a shared car situation.
#BikeTooter

And here's a short clip about today's loop from #Rosenheim to #Waserburg along the #Innradweg.
Usually we would have gone to Rosenheim by car, but today we tried rail & cycle and went there by train. Went pretty well, also with the bikes!
I should really use my chest strap for the camera, so that I can also record in cities or when I need both hands at the handlebar.

Any bike can be a cargo bike if you are determined enough.

My new license plate arrived!
(It’s a reward for pledging to get the real one made. If enough people pledge support they’ll make an actual car license plate that will raise funds for the Bike Fed.)

Some rides are worse than others…

Cyclist bitten by brown snake caught in her bike chain
The woman, in her 60s, was riding on a northern NSW rail trail when she ran over a two-metre snake that became trapped then bit her.  

Today's bike ride to work sucked. Wearing a respirator for 30 minutes isn't very comfortable. I had to adjust it a few times and it was much worse breathing in the wildfire smoke so respirator it is.
I can only assume our climate will get worse as time goes on so I figured I might want to get used to this.
#BikeTooter

#QueensZoo needs to ditch these awful bike racks and install staple racks. This same amount of space could fit at least a dozen bikes, but the "wheel bender" rack is just space inefficient.
#NYCParksDepartment

My bike riding has been poor this year, due to spinal stenosis and then spinal surgery in June... but hopefully the numbers will go up for the rest of the year.
(And who knows? Maybe I'll update some of the Python code that generates these.)

This will be my first year commuting to work in the winter on an ebike. I know you can get neoprene covers to wrap around the bike where the battery is, with the idea to keep it warmer for better performance.
Does anyone use those battery covers? Do they actually work?
#BikeTooter #BikeNitePQ

I remember back before I biked to work but I wanted to bike to work.
Today would have been one of those days where I was like "I'm too tired, didn't sleep well, my body is sore, there's no *way* I could bike to work today" and yet...
I biked to work today.
In a way, that's the exact kind of day I *should* bike to work.
#BikeTooter

Earlier in the week I decided I should ride my bike to work on Friday... then today I was asked if I could be in by 7:30am on Friday.... can I do both? We'll find out tomorrow!

I wonder if the amount of money I save from biking instead of driving is offset by the amount of money I spend on cycling gear. 🚲 🤷‍♀️ 💰

So close! I was able to ride the new (separated) bike lane along Lisbon Avenue in Milwaukee this morning.
Of course *getting to it* is not easy. IT starts at Lisbon & Burleigh which is a really crappy intersection. I rode side streets up to 74th and then crossed Burleigh to get to Lisbon.
Not ideal, but it's doable. Sad because I live a half block from Lisbon but two more blocks before the bike lane starts.

Lightning from today's bike ride to work...
#BikeTooter

Well, today is my first official "ride to work in the rain day" though I got 10 minutes into the 30 minute ride before it started hitting hard.
I learned a few things, so that's good. Also, I am extremely glad I have a spare pair of shoes and socks at work!

Yesterday's route where I almost got it right going home... The route home is easier as I make a right turn instead of left turn and I can wait until there's a break in traffic before I head onto Mayfair Road.
#bikeTooter #mke #milwaukee

This is the shortest route to work I've biked yet... It's not ideal as I need to go about a half block on Mayfair Road, then turn left onto Hampton and get into the bike lane on the right side, but good to know I have this route if I need it.
#bikeTooter #mke #milwaukee

I finally got around to working on my bike mapping project enough to publish the results...
#bikeTooter #python

We finally cycled a route that we wanted to redo since ages. We just had such a great time. There was one very steep and rough section where I fell a bit, but nothing serious.
It was a little adventure and an absolutely gorgeous start of our vacation.
We also met two elder guys a couple of times and had a nice chat each time. It's just cool to meet some friendly folks.
Unfortunately, I didn't feel like filming. Sorry.
