I often complain about Canadians not dreaming big enough when it comes to transit and services. You bring up something nice and the first question is who's going to pay for it? Well we all pay and if it's been 15 yrs until the LRT opens, maybe it's time to ask how we can use the $$ better...

I've been meaning to put this one up for a while but I finally finished my first ever sweater and write about a few lessons learned here www.jackieguan.ca/post/lessons...

Saw *2* other urban arrows during my errands today! I swear there are dozens of us!! #biketo

I recently passed my 28th (!!) week of pregnancy and I'm still biking. I write about it here if you are curious  -> www.jackieguan.ca/post/biking-... #biketo TLDR - I find biking easier than walking a lot of the time 🚲

Another beautiful day ☀️! I know real Spring and warm weather won't be here for another few weeks but I'm loving that I can go out for a walk with no jacket today <3 #spring

Just mindin' my own business as a car free person... #biketo

Beyond whining on social media, I'm trying to make a point of writing to my officials more often. Here's the list of ppl I wanna contact this week - a mix of fed/prov/municipal and not all negative things. #onpoli

For the few days that the snow melted , I managed to do my first 'real' ride with the #UrbanArrow and wrote about my thoughts here www.jackieguan.ca/post/learnin... #biketo

It's that magical window where the snow has melted enough and it's not too cold that I'm excited to go out and do some bike errands around town today🤩🤩

I'm going to be done the body of my sweater soon and the bike lanes are still a mess 🫠. Thank God it's warming up this week so the snow will finally be melting 🤞#wipwed

A short update this week - with so much snow, and poor removal, even though I want to bike and feel capable, it is too unsafe to do so www.jackieguan.ca/post/biking-... #biketo

There's still so much snow on the ground so I've started #knitting to cope. I'm 2/3rd done the yoke on my first ever sweater! Proud to get this far 🤩

It’s the big day! The appeal hearing @cycletoronto.bsky.social’s successful Bill 212 case is being heard at Ontario’s Court of Appeal. Time permitting I’ll try and live post the proceedings, like I did for the Ottawa convey injunctions back when #lawtwitter was a thing.

With so much snow ❄️yesterday - I'm grateful that we don't own a car since there's *way* less areas to shovel for walkways compared to a path for a car. The other thing is that we have more areas to pile snow that is not as high so it's less strenuous on our bodies. #carfree

If the snow keeps falling and we've already shovelled twice, and it makes no difference🤔 did we really shovel at all?

www.jackieguan.ca/post/first-i... We picked up our brand new Urban Arrow last night from Curbside Cycles and I wrote up my first impressions here. TLDR - this is a fun bike but it takes getting used to. I'm cautiously optimistic🤩 #biketo #urbanarrow

A wet ride today but nothing my trusty poncho and water resistant backpack can't handle🥰 #biketo

toronto.citynews.ca/2026/01/08/o... My first time hearing about this - I hope Ontario Place Protectors succeed #onpoli

Holy moly the sidewalks are so icey today😨. This morning will be a TTC day 🥲 #walkto

Got to do 1 last bit of biking to close the last mile on the last day of 2025. Gotta love #bikeshareto for making trips easy and efficient 🥰 #biketo

Got my Urban Arrow Cargo bike and 👶carseat adaptor for 25% off today at @curbsidecurb.bsky.social 's annual sale🤩 Only 22 weeks until the lil bean is here and we can use the bike to prep and nest in the mean time! #biketo

A line out the door at my favourite new bakery Jupiter Bakehouse on the #eastend. Glad to see new businesses opening and thriving🥰

greatplainspress.ca/books/thatll... Started reading this book by a #cycling advocate in #Winnipeg and it's *so* good 😍. I wish there were more books about urban cycle commuting from a woman's perspective #biketo

www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU7p... So good to see Marit Stiles on mainstream media dragging Doug for all his faults. She's got momentum and I hope she keeps it up ✊ #ndp #onpoli

The only positive thing about this is at least Doug's not making anymore horrible laws while on break 😬#onpoli www.cp24.com/politics/que...

I like this idea but my problem with the #TTC as a middle class Torontonian is that it's too slow and too unreliable. 50 min for the brand new LRT is not acceptable. Waiting for a streetcar for it to never come, despite all the apps saying it will is not acceptable. #Transitpriority needs to happen!

Biked to work today and it was a slog but worth it! Made it in for 9AM and saw a tonne of people waiting for the streetcar at dundas and river, which is never fun to do in the cold. #biketo Thank you #bikesharetoronto

Hey #BikeTO! The deadline to send your submission to [email protected] in support of Kingston Road and other cycling projects listed in Motion IE26.6 is TODAY at 4:30 PM! #ScarbTO #TOpoli #VisionZero secure.toronto.ca/council/agen...

Gosh I hated cp24's weather coverage. All fluff and anxiety and no actual content. 😑

www.ttc.ca/riding-the-t... The last new addition to the #TTC was ~ 23 yrs ago. I'm *so* excited to ride on Line 6 once it opens and to explore a new part of #Toronto 🤩

www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRPd... its a long one and I'm only halfway through but #notjustbikes slaps again with this super thorough & well-researched video. I'd heard of John Forester before but of course he seems to be an even bigger asshole than I thought. 🤬

Found out today that you can check out puzzles from the #TorontoPublicLibrary ‼️ Truly the best department at the city and always so innovative. TY TPL 🫶!!

Listening to my coworkers talk about spending $23 on the GO train per day while I'm riding my bike for free and riding the #TTC for $6/day makes me grateful to live in #Toronto🙏

A fresh baguette 🥖sandwich on the train with the fall colours 🍁. What could be better😍 #viarail

Seeing this reddit thread old.reddit.com/r/askTO/comm... - the suburbs were always a trap. We're just lucky that we have 1 Fare now so you don't have to pay for TTC AND GO. #Toronto

www.youtube.com/watch?v=le1O... I really enjoyed this video of this guy's ride from Cleveland to Toronto. Very surprising to see the roads so empty in the US and when you get to Canada, especially as you get to Toronto, it's packed with people, bikes and cars.

Listening to some peers about their teenagers driving and totalling their cars and it's crazy how risk tolerant we are to teens driving😬. Nearly everyone had a story about their teen crashing/totalling their car. But it was all ok bc the kid was OK and they can drive themselves now 🫥 #fuckcars

#biketo 5:15PM rush hour bike traffic at Richmond and Peter today Toronto has 8 months of winter they say...and no one bikes after labour day they say.... 😏

It's rainy 🌧️ season in Toronto and that means its time to share my favourite rain poncho www.decathlon.ca/en/p/8785643.... Great for those rainy days and there's a nice strip to keep you visible. Also packs away small for easy carrying #biketo

You know RTO is here when I'm like the 40th person in line in the bike lane at York and Adelaide. So far back I'm half to University😅. That's ok. Bring on the cyclists! #biketo

The bike parking was completely FULL at Gerrard square today so I had to park at the back -took the last spot. I did make a lil friend though 🥰 #biketo #eastend #toronto

youtu.be/HpTesvUIAdg?... I've always wanted to do this ride but there seems to be some really rough sections😭 Cute video though😍 #biketo

I legit don't mind ads on youtube but I really wish I could permanently opt out of some categories of ads. No gambling, and truck ads pls 🫥

Tried getting last min #LadyGaga tickets and 😭 the person cancelled on me with 45 min before the show starts!! Good thing I hadn't left my house yet 😅 Will try again on Sat

This morning I saw 5-6 cyclist stopped with me at the intersection before Greenwood Park. Continuing along Dundas E, there were 15-20 people at Broadview. I've never seen so many commuters before but it makes me so happy to see more people on the bike lane🥳 #biketo

One of my favourite places in #Toronto - #allangardens . Such a beautiful place to wander and linger. The renovations have been excellent🥰

🔉from the Cabbagetown festival - super fun vibes, good food and prices #toronto

youtu.be/D_SoAHeFD2g?... Don't see too many trailer reviews but this is a great one. I've been using my Wike Trailer (similar shape) for 3yrs now and it's so handy! #carryshitolympics #biketo wikeinc.com/en-ca/produc...

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... "Andrew's Law, which would include revoking an accused person's licence until they go to trial and enacting lifetime driving bans for people convicted of extreme dangerous driving." I'm still not a fan of doug but this is a good step in the right direction #onpoli

Patties for the #gotrain ride #toronto 😋
