Tomorrow is World Car Free Day. A great day to leave to car at home and choose transit or active transportation.

"The City of Paris has chosen to prioritize quality of life in central Paris by introducing new regulations for traffic as this traffic has a major impact on the quality of life of Parisians and visitors to the city,"

E-bikes shrinking cities everywhere.

To carry 50,000 people per hour in each direction, a city needs a 175m wide road for cars. Even if those cars are electric. And then there’s all the parking. OR a city can move A LOT MORE people in a lot less space, with A LOT LESS public money, emissions, pollution, noise etc. Choices. Simple.

Dear Britain, it’s now clear: 20mph zones save lives and don’t slow traffic. Implement them. Slower speeds are working elsewhere and will work here in Winnipeg. Making residential streets 30 kph will make neighbourhoods across our city friendlier, quieter and safer for everyone. t.ly/RpHRA

All good advice if you get doored but best option is not to ride in the door zone.

Definitely a model to follow @cityofwinnipeg.bsky.social @bikeweekwpg.bsky.social

This is a very impressive bike activity list for a city with a greater population of 2.5 M . @bikeweekwpg.bsky.social

And just think that if we built a network safe and comfortable for seniors how great it would be for everyone. 8 to 80!

“The biggest barrier is the lack of a connected network and comfortable complete streets that include separated bike lanes, green spaces and safer traffic intersections." Whether you are a senior or not, providing a connected network is the basis to encouraging more people to ride.

Why not just make changes to all school zones. All kids deserve safety around their schools. As @emmaewood.bsky.social indicates its a good start, but much more needs be done to make all residential streets safe & it starts with changing the default speed limit to 30 kph. @safespeedswpg.bsky.social

We finally were able to deliver the Best Pit-Stop trophy to Stantec recently. They are excited and are looking to be a repeat winner next year. Thanks to Stantec all the pit-stop hosts for helping make Bike to Work successful again this year. Looking forward to 2026's competition.

Fantastic! vancouver.citynews.ca/2025/07/09/v...

We encourage @cityofwinnipeg.bsky.social to show similar courage and implement a 30 kph residential speed limit in our city. If 30 kph is safe for school zones it is what is safe for all areas where we live and play.

The irony is painful: A bike event about the climate crisis was canceled by the climate crisis. We can’t afford more delays—our leaders must act now. #wpgpoli

For me, happiness is a bike ride. 😀 discerningcyclist.com/best-bicycle-quotes-inspiration-captions-for-bike-rides/

Another reminder that “15-Minute Cities” isn’t a new idea. It’s skilled packaging of an idea that’s been around for a LONG time. It’s been called “city of short distances.” I used to call it “The Power of Nearness.” MANY names. More things close by. Less car dependency. More CHOICE. Common sense.

Ready to make a difference this Plastic Free July? We’ve got a whole month of ideas to help you reduce plastic and make more sustainable choices. 🌱 Which day are you most excited to try? Tell us in the comments below!

Another needless delay. While compromise is necessary, I question why it is those who are most vulnerable who constantly have to pay the price. 🚶🏼‍♀️🚲💔 Wellington Crescent bike lane won’t roll till next year: city #winnipeg #wpgpoli #mbpoli winnipeg-can.newsmemory.com?publink=2b1d...

Some big personal news: earlier today, I registered as a candidate for Winnipeg city council in the upcoming by-election in Elmwood - East Kildonan! The neighbours, fellow advocates and friends who asked me to run have already hit the ground running!
