Elections Alberta has approved a citizen-initiated petition application to gather signatures in support of the proposal to end public funding to independent/private schools. Calgary teacher Alicia Taylor says she brought it forward because it could help improve funding for public schools. #AbEd

Perfect forecast too! #yycbike

Join us on a 40-km pathway loop from downtown to the reservoir after dark. Lights mandatory. Meet this Friday at the south side of the George C. King (Skipping Stone) Bridge in East Village at 6:20 p.m. Wheels roll at 6:30 p.m.

🚨📢 Brompton League night ride next week! #yycbike

The path between Ucluelet and Tofino may be the most wonderful one Uma and I have ever experienced together. #brompton #yyjbike #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #bikesky

Replaced the hinge clamps yesterday. The Brompton hinge clamp design is intended for the clamp plate to wear instead of the bike's frame, so Brompton recommends replacing both clamps every 8,000 kms or when the gap between the hinge casting and the clamp plate is less than 0.90 mm.

2 weeks ago we checked out the NEW park in the Portlands - Biidaasige Park! #BikeTO #bikesky #Toronto youtu.be/ZQme_OdCQLw

Bicycles get the best parking

Alberta's provincial government punching down - again - to distract from the chaos they are causing everywhere #yycbike www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"If the minister decides to remove cycling infrastructure, it will not remove the cyclists. We’ll still be out there, just taking up space on the road with cars, making it worse for everyone." #yycbike calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...

On the morning of Friday, July 11th, a man in his 60s was hit by a dump truck and killed while riding his bike on a painted bike lane. This is the worst nightmare for anyone who tries to get around in this city without a car. 1/4

With protected bike infrastructure and secure bike parking, you can easily attend any event by bike.

We think Kim and Jim could deliver a pack-your-Brommie-for-travel workshop. Nicely done.

Toured the NEW Biidaasige Park today! @waterfrontoronto.bsky.social did a great job designing the city's newest green space. #BikeTO #Toronto #Brompton

Took the week-of-sore-back-and-can't fix-bikes to finally get a stand alone Brompton Bikes page setup on our site. These bikes are the coolest of cool bikes. #yycbike #bromptonbikes www.bikebike.ca/brompton-fol...

We had 5 friends over for brunch today. We don't have a garage or a driveway, and if anyone had been driving a car, we'd have no parking spaces for them. But for 5 folded Bromptons? Yes, we have space! Bring them in! #Brompton #foldingbikes #carfree

The Brompton Toronto Meetup group went for breakfast at the Brick Works and a bike ride. Happy summer! #BikeTO @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social @jsquaredink.bsky.social youtu.be/Wuh0X5nHXkk

Calling all #ActiveTransportation enthusiasts: the #HubAndSpokes Group Ride is BACK, BABY! Spaces are limited for this super FUN & FREE event so RSVP fast & we'll see you on the downtown bike paths, July 19th!!! #yyc #yycbike RSVP: www.calgaryclimatehub.ca/hub_and_spok...

Out of office is on.

Today was a fabulous Brompton day with people who are into the ‘fold’ ~ reflecting on 1 person who joined our meetup group called BROMPTON Toronto yet expected speed over social. We don’t leave anyone behind. We take lots of photos of our bikes! We eat slowly. I will amplify this for non-B peeps.

Brompton overhaul. New tires. New brake pads. New chain ring. New sprockets. New grips. Ready to keep rolling. #bromptonlovers #blackedition #foldiefreak #letsgobiking #pedalpower #gobybike #gobybikebc #surreybc #cityofsurrey #cityofparks #whiterockbc #bikeyvr #cyclevancouver

Tonight’s bedtime story w/ the kids featured a brachiosaurus on … a @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social ?

Hey @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social folks… can you suggest some #ElectricBrompton riders to follow - I’m interested in buying one in 2026 and so I would like to see their experiences before committing plus I’m trying to get #Brompton to offer an “Electric Hot Pink” model 🩷🚲🩷 so 🤞

103 cyclists suffered major injuries in crashes with cars in the last year on record in Alberta. 5 died. In 73 of those collisions, the driver made an "improper action" vs. 30 who were "driving properly." 🔗: open.alberta.ca/dataset/2502... Anyway, here's the RCMP reminding cyclists to stay safe:

After a year long closure the Bow river pathway in Inglewood between 12th street and the Elbow river is open again. #yycbike

Happy World Bicycle Day! 🌎🚲💙

Happy World Bicycle Day to everyone who believes a better world is possible #yycbike

Unreal @criticalmassyyc.bsky.social turnout tonight! What a beauty night to ride with 400 friends! #yycbike

We saw all you Brompton riders in last evening’s @criticalmassyyc.bsky.social.

Tonight.

Hey #yycbike! STOLEN BROMPTON ALERT! bikeindex.org/bikes/2808026 @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social

Paris urban biking investment helps cut pollution in half: “Between 2005 and 2024, levels of nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter — 2 of the most harmful pollutants to human health — have been slashed by 50% and 55%, respectively.” Via @momentummag.bsky.social momentummag.com/paris-proves...

Gorgeous Green G Line Adventure. #bromptonbikes #jointhefold #calgary

#KingCharles, “Nice Brompton!” #ottBike @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social

There were days not that many years ago when one would be lucky to see another #yycbike on the Chestermere canal pathway. Today, I've never seen so many people riding it. Families together, groups riding out from Calgary, people on ebikes, people on gravel bikes, all kinds. So great to see.

Finished the last video of New York from May 2024 mere days before we leave for Go Bike Montreal! #BikeNYC #BikeMTL #Brompton @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social youtu.be/UreeqRzK7KE

Any Bromptons out on the (car-free) Bow Valley Parkway yet? Let’s see your photos.

Electric cargo bike + vintage 1960's letter press + rad dude = mobile community making! 🚲♥️ Be sure to subscribe to @sprawlcalgary.bsky.social today and join us at our Cargo Bike Meetup June 1st to see the Pop Up Press in action. 🚲♥️ Coffee and cookies provided by @sxfcoffee and @bakebakeyyc #yycbike

Still vibing from the superbly fun social group ride and pop-up press experience earlier this week. Much gratitude for the folder and folder-curious community that keeps showing up.

We need a Denver Brompton League.

Pedalling hard these days but having lots of fun. The Sprawl's pop-up press will be at the InglewooDIY Festival tomorrow (if weather cooperates). Look for me on 9th Ave and print a piece of Inglewood history...

Went on a lovely group ride tonight with the Calgary Brompton League. Weather ended up being beautiful! #yycbike #bikeclub #bromptons

A beautiful evening to ride bikes with friends and reproduce photos with @sprawlcalgary.bsky.social’s pop-up printing press. There was a festive air on tonight’s Brompton ride. Thanks, one and all.

By evening, winds will calm, and skies will clear. We could stargaze! ✨🚲 Brompton Group Ride Tonight, 6:30 pm. Meet at south side of George C. King (Skipping Stone) Bridge in East Village. Bring a refreshment. Our rides draw folding bike enthusiast but are open to any type of bike and its rider.

Tomorrow in Calgary: hinged frames, small wheels. Join us!

🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲 Brompton group ride: Thursday, May 15, 6:30 pm. Meet on the south side of George C. King (Skipping Stone) Bridge in East Village. Bring a refreshment for a park stop. Brompton League rides bring the folding bike community together, but any type of bike and its rider are welcome. 🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲

This is a great lesson on the history of Brompton gearing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7L8...

Side note - one day I want to create a Calgary trike league inspired by the @bromptonleague.bsky.social (and similarly inclusive). Obviously the logo will somehow have Trike Trike Trike incorporated. And we will have a gtg where we ride around the paths handing out popsicles.
