Your Cranksgiving Class of 2025!

I did @bikecleveland.bsky.social Cranksgiving today where cyclists bike to stores and buy whatever they can afford to go to local food pantries. The only rule was everything must be hauled by bicycle. This is my bike and the total haul from around 40 cyclists.

We are doing it. Getting dressed and heading to Lakewood for Cranksgiving. Every year something gets in the way of us partaking in this fun event. Not this year! 🥗🥫🍞🥔 🚲

Our annual Crash Report is a valuable tool in presenting an accurate reality of crashes involving cyclists and pedestrians. In this Zoom seminar, you will learn how to help us review and catalog reports so we can use this tool in our work for safer streets. Registration: bit.ly/crashtrainin...

"Each statistic represents someone whose life was changed by a crash, and as Bike Cleveland’s report states, “These crashes are not accidents — they’re the tragic and preventable result of streets that fail to keep people safe.” signalcleveland.org/the-city-inv...

Here's how Random Acts of Brightness works: We split up into groups and ride through popular areas looking for riders without lights. Within minutes we start intercepting & lighting up riders in need! Join us at 2 locations on Thurs and take part in the action. www.bikecleveland.org/bike-cle/eve...

The barrier to new ways of doing business isn’t a need for cars and trucks, but that people are forced into them by city design. When you design infrastructure at the human-scale, you see people making human-scale choices that benefit everyone.

Many of our Better Streets meetings this month are in sync with our light giveaways! This could be your month to make the jump and learn what is next in your neighborhood - and help! www.bikecleveland.org/our-work/bet...
