I finally got out for a decent ride yesterday. It had been a couple of weeks and I noticed rust forming on my studs when I filled up tires. Best spots to bike were the short and infrequent stretches of clear pavement on the road. Not an easy ride but it was a beautiful sunny day. #yegbike

Quite treacherous out there today. Conditions dictate riding on cleared sidewalks and walking the bike across intersections where there is car traffic. I saw lots of foot tracks in places that need to be cleared but few bike tracks. Be careful if you try it. #yegbike

Someone messed up. I spotted this van wedged between a tree and a light pole 66 street and 144 avenue. #yeg #edmonton

Good bike weather this weekend. Cold but sunny and calm. Toque, neck warmer and ski gloves were required yesterday, but I made it a 25 km round trip to the Highlands neighbourhood to pick up a capo and some pepperoni. There was a detour though Rundle, Gold Bar and Capilano parks. #yegbike.

Holy cow is it ever perfect weather for biking around right now. I took my winter bike out for a bit to help push in some replacement studs but they’re not today. Like at all. #yegbike #bikesky #yeg

If anyone likes climbing stuff, there’s a thing you can climb, it’s downhill of the Shaw conference centre or whatever it’s called now. #yeg

New trail just dropped. Manning south of 153 avenue. The intersection at Miller Crossing is still a mess though. #yegbike

One more Northeast Edmonton pedestrian/bike/mobility improvement for now. This sidewalk in York used to have a set of stairs in the middle. Now it does not. #yegbike.

I forgot the #yegbike

More bike and shared infrastructure progress in the Northeast. A couple more blocks of the 132 ave bike lane is completed west of 66 street. New sidewalk to shared trail conversion on the east side of 66th street between 137 ave and 149 ave is nearly complete.

We got a small pedestrian/rolling improvement at the intersection of 66th street and 137 ave. See the old style curb ramp on the west side that puts you into the intersection vs new ones on the east side that aim you into the crosswalk. #yegbike

I don’t want Harris in the game anymore. Give Maier a chance to complete the comeback against his former team. That last was too much. #CFL

Some new bike/shared infrastructure in the northeast. Westbound 137 street off of Victoria trail and a couple shots of the new pedestrian bridge near the quarry golf course. #yegbike.

Some new bike/shared infrastructure in the northeast under construction. New trail on Manning southbound off of 50th street, and they are replacing the sidewalk on 50th street northbound on 142 ave. #yegbike

I had the entire Bay/Enterprise Square LRT platform to myself for a moment. A panoramic shot. #yeg #takeets

The #teamted segment on the #bombers #bclions game made my eyes leak a little. #CFL

I was happy to find that a new shared trail has replaced an old dirt desire line on 50th street on the Hollick Kenyon side. Not sure when it was completed but it wasn’t there the last time I took that route. Thank you City of Edmonton. #yegbike.

Look at this thing. #yeg

#yegbike I missed the bus yesterday so without thinking it through I hopped on my second favourite bike and rode it to the LRT station and parked it there all day. It was the only bike there though. Anxiety was high but it was all there in one piece when I got back at 5:30.

Even though she has a choice of 2 nearby dog beds, Raisin thinks the best place to sleep is in the coffee table. #dogs

What a beautiful afternoon we had today. #yegbike.
