I wish bicyclists were as powerful a political lobby as the most car brained people seem to think we are

Check it out!

Restaurant named "You Know Where" with signature dish of "you know what"

There's a cottage industry built around offering advice to young men for money, and and all of it is bad, what young men really need is to buy a cheap bicycle and bike tools so you can fix it and ride it 10-20 miles every day while listening to Moby Dick as an audiobook

All it took for Republicans to go from anti-child rape to pro-child rape was realizing which side Trump was on

I’m coming to understand that maintaining hope is radical.

Bring a friend or five!

As a driver, I 100% endorse separated bike lanes.

Sounds like East Nashville Beer Works to me! PLUS more parking across the street (with a non-zero chance to get hit by a speeding car driver).

Fun ride today with FTW crew - created HUB requests for improvements, moved portable dumpsters out of the way (IYKYK), & had tasty cupcakes. But y'all, WTF is up with MNPD horses 💩 on bridges??? Ped bridge + new greenway bridge near Ascend. Don't cop horses' anuses need to be bagged, too?

Support local biz + nonprofit partners Tues 5/19 when you fill your belly with a delicious donation to Bike Fun. Thanks to our community partner Mitchell Deli for the giveback opportunity!

NES contractor trimmed the trees around the wires at 24th S & Blakemore, SW corner. But the lone streetlight is behind foliage still, ensuring a much used crosswalk between the Blair school and Dragon Park remains much too dark at night.

Good morning -- Let's do a quick public survey! Please repost this if you believe @nashvilledot.bsky.social's Vision Zero dollars SHOULD NOT be spent on repaving a street. Feel free to add in your own comments, too!

Once again: close an area to cars, business *increases*. Every time. And yet every new proposal to close an area to cars meets the same resistance from business owners. I'm starting to wonder whether business owners really are rational self-interest maximizers, I tell you!

Excited to live in a country where you can mail someone a handgun but not an abortion pill

"What should drivers do?" I don't know, not driving up on the sidewalk and chasing a kid is indeed an option

Like the vast majority of spiders (certain Australian psychopaths excepted) the Brown Recluse does not seek confrontation and will only bite if threatened or trapped. To use words Kyle Rittenhouse will understand, Brown Recluses have a Castle Doctrine and abide by strict Stand Your Ground laws.

#MetroCouncilNash will meet on Thursday this week (with Monday committees shifting to Wednesday) due to the Tuesday election day. @nashvillemco.bsky.social

Heads up - lot of work going on at the base of the pedestrian bridge. Crosswalk at 3rd is closed. There are no warning or detour signs.

THE FULL BCYCLE! As promised on, @citycastnash.bsky.social, it has been accomplished. Shout out to @aaronjolly.bsky.social and @benvaught.bsky.social for joining. All 36 @nashvillebcycleops.bsky.social stations accounted for!!

Cops often don't know laws. And there's case law that they aren't expected to! It's for a court to determine later. The whole system is set up so they can harm marginalized people any time they want and people will "just figure it out later" (after they've lost jobs/housing/etc.)

Beg buttons may be the best places to stick our stickers.

I demonstrated two things today: that driving faster increases the risk that someone will die and that, after the pandemic, people started driving like bigger assholes. Gift link: www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

Well, I guess 89k Tennesseans (myself included) will be seeking another health insurance provider next year. Which probably means new doctors too. Oh well, it was nice to feel like there was some stability for.... 2 years.

"children are 8x more likely to be killed when hit by an SUV than a sedan"

Who wants to do the Full @nashvillebcycleops.bsky.social Challenge with me this Sunday? Shenanigans and perhaps some beta testing of the cycling.city website will ensue. Calling on @jspencersharpe.bsky.social, @benvaught.bsky.social, and anyone else!

“Ever found yourself driving to the grocery store or coffee shop even tho it’s a 10-minute walk & perfectly nice day? New research suggests the reason isn’t just distance—it’s how the walk feels…its the sights, street life & amenities along the way that strongly shape whether people decide to walk.”

Clearly, the forces of mandatory car ownership want us alienated from one another so we don't cause trouble.

Also there is a non-zero chance that a human will at some point in their life become disabled (even if only temporarily) so why not build spaces for everyone?

Fest feedback for fun! cc @kemcdonell.bsky.social @moxieonwheels.bsky.social @jspencersharpe.bsky.social @seanforfive.com @nashvillediary.bsky.social - please share

These signs lasted less than 4 days in the newly painted crosswalk outside our school.

Would love to see metro departments take this stance rather than react to individual CMs whims. Make a strong case for your work. Be vocal about the why. Stand by your standards.

Looks like the prosecutors couldn’t make it stand up in court

TRUMP, throwing insults at Pope Leo: “weak on crime” “terrible for foreign policy” “catering to the Radical Left” “owes his position to me” “sit down and mind your own business” POPE LEO, unbothered: “We are called to love.”

Normalize this instead of Share the Road

Articles like this always frame taking the keys away as a personal family tragedy. It’s actually a systemic infrastructure failure. We've built a society where losing a driver's license means losing your entire independence and connection to the world. It shouldn't be this way.

Being startled is not the same as being injured or killed! I understand that cyclists in crowded urban spaces can be annoying as hell but that is simply a different phenomenon than danger.
