I'd say something about big trucks and pedestrian collisions, but it's too on the nose...

Today while riding I had a large pickup truck with a trailer come up behind me on a somewhat curvy road. He hung back driving slowly and I decided to get off the road to let him pass. He gave me a little honk to say "thank you" as he went by. It's nice to be reminded of how decent people can be.

It's pretty wild and amazing to see how many bikers there are during the London tube strike. www.youtube.com/watch?v=53OA...

Who needs a car? Another fence project. That means more lumber. Hailing 3 8’ 4”x4” posts. Not a heavy load but awkward. Spent 15 mins. answering the yardman’s questions about the bike, trailer, lifestyle and economics related to being car free. #cargobikelife #cargobiketrailers #benbuiltworkshop

Gotta keep cool...

This is pretty neat. Is it good? Who knows, but it seems kinda impressive as far as this genre of e-bike conversion kits goes... www.kickstarter.com/projects/280...

I voted for the Georgia Public Service Commission democratic candidate this morning by bike and man did it feel good...

Seems like a nice guy. 🙄

It's hard to forage while you're in a car. On a bike, however...

If only the car wasn't king...

Do people who drive cars when they could bike know that you don't have to pay for gas if you bike? It's honestly pretty cool!

I had a good time riding my bike in Columbus, Georgia this afternoon. Cc: @birdmanstevens.bsky.social

I got a pretty good parking spot tonight.

No cheating. Post the last photo you took of your pet.

People that sit in their cars idling away make me want to punch a fool. 🤬

Really enjoying Sully's videos. Here's his latest one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTv8...

Cars contribute so much health-sabotaging noise to our environments! Birdsong, in the other hand isn’t noise, but rather music, health-enhancing vocalizations A goal for any city should be to attract more birdsong and less car noise

Many people will see nothing wrong with these images

Might be time to break this stuff out.

Transitioning away from the big "G". So far: Chomp- messaging Here we go- maps Ecosia- search engine Transit- public transit Hop Fast pass- public transit Ride with GPS- biking routes Any other suggestions?

Why do vehicles like this exist? We live in a very unserious world.

Today I rode my bike 48 miles roundtrip to remove invasive plants at our property and I charged my bike with solar power. I hope our leaders are also doing what they can to improve the environment. ☺️

This is a cool bike and a really cool cause! Donate if you can. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnSW...

Yesterday was nice. It was like cars hardly existed. There was no noise from the highway. We could walk down a 45 MPH road in peace. Cars really do make life unpleasant in ways that unfortunately most people don't realize.

I was a bit late, but I finally got to goof around in our once-every-5-years snow today.

Kids, am I right?

I got rained on while biking today and somehow I didn't melt. 🤔

Sad to see Light and Motion, one of the few companies that still made bike lights in the U.S., is closing down. The only other one I'm aware of is Outbound Lighting. lightandmotion.com

These two roads in my area are part of Georgia's State Bicycling Routes. They have speed limits of 55 MPH and basically no shoulder, especially the second one. What are we doing here?!

Nothing quite like the beauty of fall juxtaposed with the horrendous sound of gas leaf blowers...

Broadway in downtown Columbus, GA actually has some traffic calming in the form of mid-block raised crossings that are paved in brick. Although the road is wide the large trees and "busy" environment seem to keep drivers at a pretty low speed.

Areas without cars sure are a treat.

Dreaming of the day when anywhere you want to go on bike is either a separated path or a highly protected bike lane...

It's disturbing how large almost all new trucks are, and you can hardly even reach in the beds of them from the side. And even though I still think most buyers don't use it for what it was designed for, the Ford Maverick is somewhat refreshing in a sea of humongous land barges.

Picked up this pallet from a neighbor who was throwing it out. Not exactly the ideal setup, but whatever works...

The 11th Street tunnel in Columbus, GA was reduced by a lane in order to add a path and that included adding multi-colored LEDs that allow for some pretty cool lighting effects as you stroll through. While we need a lot more bike infrastructure it is cool to see the effort that was put in here.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains. Built To Spill - Perfect From Now On (1997)

This is what it looks like when a city doesn't care about anything but cars.

A great way to keep drivers at bay is to carry a chainsaw on the back of your bike. 😊 Also a good way to clear your local MTB trails of downed trees. 😎

70 pounds of dog food and some nuts? No problem with an e-bike!
