While in Vancouver we checked out the Sen̓áḵw buildings—showing what’s possible when developments shift from car‑centric to car‑lite design to prioritize shared space, transit and active‑transportation. The Bike Hub will also include e-cargo bike rentals (senakw.com/amenities). #bikeyvr #bikesky

Here’s a quick tour of the upgrades on Drake Street in Vancouver, BC — covering the protected bike lane improvements (phase 1 & 2). Phase 3 is also scheduled to be completed soon. #bikeyvr #bikesky www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBcf...

A couple weeks ago we visited Vancouver and were spoiled for choice when it came to transportation options. Lots of trip chaining, exploring, and even filming a couple new rides on Mobi bikes. #bikeyvr #bikesky #micromobility #bikeshare #publicTransit

We filmed the Bute Greenway back in 2023, including the pedestrianized Bute–Robson Plaza. Returning to Vancouver this year, the new permanent design looks great 🙂 #bikeyvr #bikesky #pedestrianstreet
