I'm stoked to have been invited to talk about @strongtowns-carmel.bsky.social on this podcast with @bthibbs.bsky.social! We talked about what makes Carmel unique, why we chose to move here with just one car, and why I don't wear spandex 😆 open.spotify.com/episode/4doT...

A friend wrote this great piece on why we need the Autumn Greenway in #CarmelIndiana. My family lives car-lite and off-street paths make that possible. If you agree, please take a moment to sign the letter of support. strongtownscarmel.org/blog/why-off...

I love this post from @americanfietser.bsky.social on using guidance from @dutchcycling.nl to make Carmel an even better place to walk, bike, and roll: strongtownscarmel.org/blog/designi...

I'm excited to help grow the @strongtowns.org conversation in Carmel. Maybe you'll join us in advocating for everything from safe streets to bottom-up development? An open invitation: bit.ly/3YB0n8v

My annual Festive Lights and Cycling video is on-line now. There will be one more post on Christmas Day with the 2024-recap. Enjoy!

How we move through urban environments shapes how we experience life. One path fosters connection and awareness, the other disconnects, isolates, and distracts.
