I am no traffic engineer, but I think we should simply design roads that make drivers nervous and scared so they slow the fuck down. We shouldn't want drivers to feel comfortable.

You probably are not riding your bike slow enough. *sorry for the bikesplaining

Yes. Yes it can. "Many families find that the e-bike pays for itself within the first year or two simply by allowing them to avoid buying or replacing a second vehicle." electrek.co/2026/06/03/c...

Avoiding paying for gasloine was the least beneficial of the multiple benefits. This is why it was article and not an email. Reading the article explains the article...

We save at least $4,000 a year by not having our second car anymore. Replaced it with a cargo e-bike and never looked back. We also drive our other car less because our kids would always rather ride bikes than sit in a car.

Cargo bikers: the friendliest bikers. Happy Monday, everybody #yycbike

Painted door zone bike lanes are death traps. City's need to never paint another one ever again. #roadsafety

Early season bikepacking in these parts means going east. Looking forward to riding this route again, been quite a few years since the last adventure to Carseland. Hoping pizza at the Carseland restaurant hits the spot like it did last time. 🍕 #gobikepacking #explorealberta

Love this idea

Join us at the next weekend's Kidical Mass after party at Riley Park 11am-1pm where you can taste test a "flotilla" of the best cargo bikes on planet earth. Show up for our kids! Enjoy a BakeBakeYYC cookie! Check out the latest in car replacement technology! #yycbike #KidicalMass

When Bradbury wrote “The Pedestrian” (which became Fahrenheit 451), walking had been effectively criminalized in society. Requiring someone to have insurance to walk is the first step toward this dystopia. thewaroncars.org/2022/03/29/t...

I don't know about you, but I have seen the results of an errant soccer ball meeting a moving bicycle, and it is not pretty. I hope there is a plan to install some fencing here. #yycbike @mykeatkinson.bsky.social

Ceci n’est pas une bicyclette.

Got inspired to go on a bike adventure next month after attending the Bikepacking workshop series. I love that we have access to a local shop that builds community and inspires people to get out there with their bikes.

The BikeBike Dispatch: June 2026 www.bikebike.ca/campaigns/vi... #bikeshoplife #calgary #alberta

It took a bit of peer pressure (mostly from seeing them on @whoalansi.bsky.social’s rig), with an assist from some @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social service, but finally got the Bakkie bags and looking forward to the little guys biking around over longer distances www.bikebike.ca/go-shopping/... #yycbike

✨🚲🌈Join us June 14 for the best party in town before 11am! 🌈🚲✨ Our route will ride through Sunnyside, with an after party at Riley Park. Kids, parents, and adults of all ages are welcome. More information coming soon. #yycbike

Summer is here and bikes are still the cheapest way to get around your city. www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

Paging @calgary.ca @jeromyyyc.bsky.social @natefor8.bsky.social @mykeatkinson.bsky.social #yyccc We have something Amsterdam - and most other cities don't have: Plenty of road space and wide ROWs. #worldbicycleday #yycbike

Every photo of cars stuck in traffic beside a bike lane has a comment under it saying "I don't see any bikes. Remove the bike lane." Like dude, the bikes are not *stuck in traffic*. They can move freely and disengage themselves from the autonormative hellscape.

Could it be that the city has finally done something to reign in the bad parking behaviors of some e-scooter share users? I sure hope so. www.reddit.com/r/Calgary/co...

What car replacement technology looks like. Benno's new Boost EVO 7 can do almost everything an electric car can do at a fraction of the price.

World Bicycle Day! I love riding my Brompton Bicycle & the freedom that cycling brings. Cycling is fantastic for both mental & physical health it helps reduce stress, improves fitness, & overall wellbeing. Every ride is a reminder of how such a simple activity can have so many positive benefits.

Revolutionary health improvement technology.

Happy World Bicycle Day #yycbike. In 2018, UN declared Jun 3 as World Bicycle Day for "the uniqueness, longevity and versatility of the bicycle, which has been in use for two centuries, and that it is a simple, affordable, reliable, clean and environmentally fit sustainable means of transport."

IT'S A SIGN!

Hey Anthony - BIKE LANES AREN'T FOR "CYCLISTS". They're for everyone else who just wants to ride a bike somewhere - safely - without having to identify as some kind of culture warrior while trying to go to work, take their kids to school, or pick up some groceries. #yycbike

Finally getting around to creating a shop jersey design I've had in my head for more than a decade. #yycbike #bikeshoplife #artbike #mondrian Planning to do a full kit: Jersey, bib shorts, cycling cap, and t-shirt.
