I had no idea how much you could earn as a Citi Bike Angel in points redeemable for Amazon gift cards, but also this prize seemed extremely hard won after more than 1500 rides and 101 hours of work.

OK, this is great news, I'm going to log off on a high note. Find joy where you can, friends.

Hot damn — the Red Hook Pool will open this Saturday.

"I spent 30 days riding and competing, through temperatures ranging from the 20s to the 90s, several rounds of April showers, and every other kind of chaos New York’s streets could throw at me."

The fight over horse-drawn carriages in Central Park is a literal Trojan horse for e-bike registration.

Why doesn’t the mayor — or the governor, for that matter — tell New Yorkers to avoid driving on days when Gotham is beset with dangerous smoke from Canadian wildfires? buff.ly/6OHXRGU

Adding this bus lane for the Q70-LGA Link was a really simple improvement but it seems to have actually worked quite well. Shockingly, Queens drivers look to be respecting the bus lane!? Even though it's only an eastbound lane, some Q70 drivers use it westbound so it's kinda bi-directional!

A Democratic bill comes at a crucial time for high-speed rail projects that are struggling to get off the ground.

Advocates are calling on the city to put a bike lane on the roadbed of the Queensboro Bridge because motor vehicle traffic dropped by almost a quarter on each of the main inbound and outbound lanes nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/07/15/f...

Mayor Mamdani’s bid to speed up the Q70 bus between Jackson Heights and LaGuardia Airport with a dedicated bus lane along Broadway looks like it’s working as designed — in the parts where it was designed, that is.

The only people critical of Mayor Mamdani's COGE panel's plans to cut red tape for street safety redesigns and outdoor dining applications at a public hearing last night were politicians who would lose power to weigh in on them. nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/07/14/u...

Mayor Mamdani on Monday cited vague “legal requirements” to explain his continued inaction to reverse his predecessor Eric Adams’s backroom decision to erase three blocks of the protected bike lane on Brooklyn’s Bedford Avenue.

I didn't witness this exchange/the Mayor's remarks, but the fact that he had an answer ready seems to indicate the problem of the unsafe Bedford 🚲 lanes is a live issue at City Hall

“The COGE panel found that these regulations have allowed non-experts to undermine DOT’s planners and designers, drained city resources with repetitive feedback sessions, and set back desperately needed revamps in a city where roughly 50,000 people are injured” in traffic each year.

New Yorkers demanded that the city ditch time-consuming reviews that undermine street safety redesigns while several politicians hoped to cling to their power to delay projects in testimony on Monday before a mayoral government efficiency commission.

One easy way to keep our city clean: Move your goddamn car.

If there's a lot of traffic on your bus routes, move the traffic, not the bus.
