Literally, though.

Great video by @ben-durham.bsky.social about the cost on society when people choose to get around by bicycle. #Calgary #Edmonton youtu.be/JVD32ZC-784?...

Was not expecting to talk about kicking taxis or getting stuck in a snowstorm, but we went there! Great discussion with @ben-durham.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=giK_...

Whoops. I went there. youtu.be/pAbMpMGeBTk

Did you know you’re a CO-OWNER of your city, not just a resident? Yeah, so from clean water to property values, municipal finance impacts EVERYTHING in your life. Most people ignore it… until the trash piles up or toilets stop flushing lol.

For over 40 years, Winnipeg’s iconic Portage & Main intersection has been CLOSED to pedestrians. In 2018, 65% voted to keep it shut. #winnipeg

I've TRIED talking and “being nice” but have been met with incomprehension. There's a FUNDAMENTAL MISUNDERSTANDING of what Utility Cyclists are VS what Recreational Cyclists are. Councillors, you NEED to know the difference when making rash decisions like these. youtu.be/LrLydtZoFo4

“People get very complacent driving cars, because it’s easy, and you are very protected and you’re very isolated inside your car. It’s easy to forget that there’s a huge amount of energy inside a car, even when it’s only going 20 or 30mph."

what. the. fuck. We might legitimately move out of London, Ontario at this rate. We were excited to have these bike lanes go into our area, along routes that we frequent. Peter Cuddy LITERALLY SAID HURON STREET IS TOO DANGEROUS TO BIKE ON – THAT'S WHAT BIKE LANES ARE FOR!

Thanks! It's being talked about live right now at council 🤞 www.youtube.com/live/y8v1BXt...

@adoseofbuckley.bsky.social we should definitely sit down and chat sometime! re: www.reddit.com/r/londononta...

London Ontario looking to resurrect 'dead' stroad widening project that will cost 100s of millions just to make traffic worse. @ben-durham.bsky.social youtu.be/9rjIBE-r4ns?...

This is a tell-all interview on the Wheels and Beyond Podcast and a peak behind the scenes of #biktrix with today's guest: Gordon Lai, the Head of Strategy and Customer Experience at the company.

don't be apathetic #ontariovotes2025

New podcast episode's up! Ft. @hunniford.bsky.social from the London Bicycle Cafe! youtu.be/2C77K1zmQRU

Did you know that your laundry detergents don't dissolve and work properly in FREEZING water, only regular summer temperature tap water? So make sure you use the Cold/Warm setting during the colder months, not just the Cold setting. Use cold in the Spring, though!

why using coffee grinds is better than salt for slippery ice

the “$200 Ontario Rebate” is a bribe, btw #ontario Vote Ford out.

TIL Ford Dougquaad = Lord Farquaad youtu.be/7MX3qdYjN_M

Who else feels the same way? New #podcast episode is out now! youtu.be/MTcDNtRmu60

What's YOUR preferred #podcast episode length as a listener?

biking through a blizzard be like… #frostbiking #wintercycling #ldnont #canada

Is anyone who's reading this a policy and/or research expert who's interested in helping out in future investigative videos? ie. wrapping up, “what the heck happened with Bill 212 in the end?”

@strongtowns.org and I did a collab! This mini doc is about how big businesses coming into smaller cities isn't necessarily always the best thing for them. If things go bad and those businesses pull out, the taxpayers take the hit via increased property taxes… And other not so great things 🙃

Mini doc coming out today on the official Strong Towns YouTube channel!

Are painted bike lanes good enough? #ldnont

~ December Update ~ Exciting news! There's a cool project that I've been working directly with StrongTowns.org for their main channel… but it's taking up all my time 😅

don't worry guys, I'm not a health insurance CEO, so I should be fine 🤣

I love copy/pasting comments and changing out one or two words in order to show how drivers and cars cause the majority of problems in the world. It's just so much fun!

Massive parking lots are a bad investment for cities. They can be infilled with mixed developments to generate more tax revenue and fund the public transit that is on the verge of service cuts

Parking mandates are silly. So many business owners agree!

Do you think more highways solve traffic congestion?

Black Friday parking sucks, so let's make sure parking mandates become of a thing of the past #BlackFridayParking #ldnont #strongtowns

This might happen 😜

Thanks for 10,000 subscribers over on YouTube, everyone ♥ It's been a loooong journey, mostly of discovery. Fun story: I hit all the metrics to get monetized in 2020, and then it literally took THREE YEARS to finish that process because there was a hiccup somewhere in YouTube's system. 1/

Drivers of Ontario: Bill 212 is going to mess you up 😂 #ontario #hwy413 #toronto #bill212

Thanks for this! 'twas definitely needed because no one seems to be talking about the rest of the bill 🤦‍♂️

Bill 212 sucks in so many ways 😂😭🛣🍁💀

Doug Ford is distracting Ontarians and turning us against ourselves. Bill 212 isn't actually about bike lanes. youtu.be/8-1vT0TmQjs

tomorrow's video isn't my regular type of video at 34 minutes long

One of the MOST IMPORTANT THINGS your city could do to become more healthy, sustainable, livable, affordable, equitable, successful — stop pretending to “balance” transportation modes, and commit to PRIORITIZING walking/rolling, biking, public transit. HT @dublincycling.bsky.social’s great graphic.

People kept asking if I was on bsky, so here I am!
