How long do you wait for someone to grab their clothes from shared laundry rooms? I wait maybe 5-10 minutes then put it in a basket. These are modern machines, they indicate how much time is left on the cycle.

One of the main reasons there are e-bike/pedestrian conflicts is because cities, or at least the City of Edmonton, prefers multiuse paths instead of proper separated infrastructure that's been shown to be safer for all road users.

Considering that I don’t drive, the number of dreams I have in which I’m driving is exceptional

A common thread among newer cyclists is realizing just how awful drivers are. There are things you simply don't notice — behavior that has been normalized — when you mostly drive. Biking, walking, or rolling through the world changes that.

Please take a second to ask for pedestrian access across 66st. #yegbike So far the yellowhead renewal has been a disaster for pedestrians and cyclists without any dedicated safe crossings added.

At what point do we consider these vehicles to be truly abandoned? It sounds like we may need to start auctioning them off to make room. This is once again a case of people using public property to store their private property.

Am I the only one who thinks that patio fees are perfectly acceptable? You’re using public space for your private business.

Trains > planes.

Naturalizing the yard is paying off: I had my first dark-eyed Junco sighting EVER. #YEG

I had my first ladybug sighting! 🐞

I had the idea of doing a metric century around Alexander Circle in Glenora because 1) it would annoy rich people and there would be nothing they could do about it, and 2) I just generally think it would be funny to ride 100km in a circle 1/2

If you didn't already think that our city driving culture was absolutely cooked, look no further than the person on the Edmonton subreddit arguing that exceeding the speed limit by 80km/hr is "probably safer" than going 80kmph on the Anthony Henday Drive during rush hour. 🤡 #yeg #yegbike

I can’t prove it but I have a theory that dreams from naps are more vivid/crazy than regular dreams at night.

The fact that I am still attracted to men proves that sexuality isn’t a choice.

I saw this in rush hour traffic today Don't worry folks, it's an electric "bike" so be kind. It also technically has pedals... This is how legit class 1 ebikes are going to bed banned by city Councils, Ridiculous! @yegbike.bsky.social @yegbike.bsky.social

I think it speaks to the state of games how many april fools pranks from various studios are "We're adding ai! Haha, just kidding. We would never willingly do that. Can you fucking imagine? Gross."

Hey #yegbike - any info on the McNally/Forest Heights hill conditions? Itching to start my bike commute again.

Whyte Ave scrambles have been asked to scram. Disappointed, but hey at least we may be getting BRT down Whyte.

I’ve had a particularly discouraging day, but hopeful the evening is better.

Oh fuck these people

Alberta electricity company Capital Power has successfully lobbied the Mark Carney government to drop clean-energy regulations, clearing the path forward for the development of their gas-powered AI data centre. Journalist Taylor C. Noakes explores: https://ow.ly/XM7b50Yzsyb

Possibly unpopular #YEGbike opinion: Today was a beautiful day to go for a ride.

My dentist is advertising *heavily* that they now have free parking. I walked in wearing my helmet/goggles and they asked if I parked in the back. For context, the office is within ONE block of two bike lanes near the UofA. #yegbike

Needing to refill a stapler I reached into a desk to find...a vintage box of staples. Miller Stationers was an icon of downtown Edmonton--and they were keen Green & Gold fans. N.B. the phone number: GA 4-3187

Damn I forgot how funny this photo-op was. #collage

It feels a bit silly to be making art at a time like this.

Maybe busses aren’t full b/c we don’t have BRT and they’re slow AF? 🧐

Currently listening to Urban Planning Committee Speakers re: BRT. Why do I do this to myself

I was riding my bike and taking transit before gas prices were high.

That TB self-goal was wild 🤯

I have intel that geese have returned to the UofA campus. #yeg

My disc brakes are squeaky AF today. #yegbike

This sticker always makes me chuckle when I walk past it near the Kingsway LRT stop. #yeg #yegbike

I didn’t have a period for ~8 years or so b/c of my IUD. I recently had it changed out and am still getting used to have a somewhat regular period. I don’t like it at all.

ahhhhh it's so cold #yegbike

If you are wondering how upzoning in Edmonton is going; when I moved into my place last year it was $1300 for a 1 bed. Now my landlord is offering a slightly larger unit for $1200. Its crazy! If I wasn't moving cities I'd be down there renegotiating my lease as we speak @growtogetheryeg.bsky.social

I'm fairly certain that someone on Strava has notifications set up for when I upload a new activity. Of all the platforms to have notifications, Strava? Really?

Here is some info for my fellow Edmonton residents for no particular reason: The strongest wind gust ever recorded in Edmonton was 146 km/h on Oct. 1, 1965. (It is very windy here in Alberta today)

Holy crap it's windy #YEGbike

Central #YEG friends: Atlas Medical Clinic in Garneau is accepting new patients! Super convenient location, and the doc I saw was lovely.

Will the world ever be Fergalicious again

The provincial government is imposing the largest property tax increase in Calgary’s history. Calgarians are facing more than double the increase of Edmonton. +$339 per home in Calgary. +$154 in Edmonton. Albertans deserve a system that is transparent, balanced, and fair.

Sick and tired - literally.

The math doesn't lie. Danielle Smith spent $17 million on "Alberta is Calling" to recruit new residents. But spent $0 on the infrastructure to support them. Now that the bills are due and the services are failing, she’s pointing the finger at the very people she invited. #ableg #canpoli #abpoli
