Calling all Orca whales in the area…

Summer in Minneapolis:

Last year, the @mcbl.bike helped 80 people replace 4,100 miles of car trips with bike trips in 6 months simply by providing free access to e-cargo bikes. In 2026, the size of our fleet has doubled and we’ve got plans to expand to Rochester, St. Paul and Duluth. Who else wants to join the party?

Great work by @sjinstp.bsky.social, a member of the @saintpaulbike.bsky.social! Bikeability is built up by large changes like the forthcoming Summit Ave redesign and by small changes like quality bike parking where it makes sense.

One of the best venues in Minneapolis for an evening soirée.

Member stories: Last week our @bunchbike.com went home with a member who wanted to ensure her friend (who gets around with a wheelchair) could join a weekend picnic. 🚲 ❤️

The ERB was lit at May Day 🔥

Make America Minneapolis. Happy May Day 💚

Great to see the North Stars beat the Lone Stars on home ice last night. LFG!!!

Fuck Jacob Frey and the MPD.

Is Waymo making cities safer? “The more likely outcome, experts say, is that Waymo & other self-driving taxi services, would divert New Yorkers from using public transit, which remains the safest transportation option. Public transportation is 95% safer than vehicles & requires no new technology.”

She represents this cis-male as well 🥰

Pay attention @dfl.org

ICYMI (because you aren't subscribed to our newsletter), our cargo bike library will reopen in May! Bookings will open tonight at 7pm for existing members (folks who completed our orientation last year). More updates here:

Electric-assist cargo bikes are car replacers. The @mcbl.bike and @wababikelibrary.bsky.social are two examples of community-led efforts in the US helping people replace car trips while building community, and having fun at the same time!

“The DFL desegregated Minneapolis” is classic @dfl.org self aggrandizement that’s embarrassingly out of touch with reality. There couldn’t be a clearer signal that the old guard are in full pearl clutching mode. humphreyproject.org

Not sure a full ban is in the cards or necessarily desirable in some cases. But we absolutely must reconsider our relationship to parkways and I'm proud that the board voted to do just that. Will have updates on the pilot soon! Be sure to stay tuned and engage with it so it can be a huge success!

AOC is an absolute Queen and this video of her calling out the rapist President for who he is while commuting on her ebike is the biggest chef’s kiss ever 💚

These are called e-motos, not to be confused with e-bikes.

Proud descendent of Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman right here 🫡

💯😭 I’m a 48 year old man and I frequently cry tears of joy, gratitude and frustration and I’m not afraid to say it. Let’s go boys, #freethetears

Hey Minneapolis Charter Commission, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.

C’mon, you know you’re curious….its a ton of fun! Come dance with me! www.peopleandcraft.org/intro-cloggi...

Day 4 of #30DaysOfBiking It was lightly snowing while I took the @mcbl.bike Radioflyer Via Pro out for a quick spin around the neighborhood to check that it’s in good shape after winter hibernation. Our fleet is officially up to 15 bikes for this year! 🤯 🥰

BORROW OF THE DAY: Stephen is taking his mom out to see the tulips at the botanical garden! #cargobike @bunchbike.com #bikedc

eBike and eCargo Bike Libraries have the potential to transform communities and quality of life in exponential ways…check out St. Paul’s newest eBike library!!

People from out of town on stage today at the Capitol saying “thank you Minneapolis!” and “it’s great to be in Minneapolis!” and I finally understand why the St Paul hipster corduroy jacket craze is a thing.

AOC 100%

Got to attend the League of American Bicyclists National Bike Summit this week in DC on behalf of @bikemn.bsky.social It really had a family reunion vibe…reconnected with old friends, met @wababikelibrary.bsky.social IRL, lobbied on the hill, & protested to protect the 15th St protected bike lane 😍

Landing at DCA soon and will have camera at the ready 🫡

“Leave a Future” is such a confusing message…leave a future for whom? For what? Who the fuck are they talking to??? www.startribune.com/university-o...

This is amazing news! The people of Minneapolis and St. Paul are being recognized with one of the most prestigious civic honors in America. The JFK Library Foundation announced today that the people of the Twin Cities will receive a 2026 John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for their resistance!

@jacobfreedland.bsky.social get the fuck outta here with that nonsense. We keep us safe, invest in community health, housing, mental health, education, and keeping HCMC open.

The US is being manipulated and used by the Israeli and Russian regimes. Stand with Ukraine. No war in Iran. Free Palestine.

This is the appropriate response.

Congratulations to the men’s Paralympic hockey team!! I’ll never get tired of beating Canada on the ice. PS - Please don’t tarnish the glory of this moment and party with fascists… www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

@perennialcycle.bsky.social is a stalwart bike shop in #minneapolis and has always supported the shift away from car dependency. If you're looking for a new bike this year, definitely check out this shop!

A day after Frey vetoed pre-eviction notice, two ICE vehicles are parked in MPD parking outside City Hall. My assumption would be that they’re here to meet with the mayor’s administration. We’re still under occupation.

This is what happens when the US President is a Russian asset.

This is what it looks like when the US President is a Russian asset.

But will @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social listen to any of these fine people if they aren’t landlords?

Call Mayor Frey today at 612-673-2100 and tell him to sign Pause Evictions, Save Lives. We fought to keep our immigrant neighbors here—now we need to keep them in their homes. No family should be punished for hiding from ICE by now being evicted.

The elected officials who rep a majority of the city have to beg Jacob Frey to not veto an extension in eviction notices. @Jacob_Frey who rode the wave of our collective suffering on his national PR tour, the most vulnerable in our city have to beg Jacob Frey to not impede help.

We are so grateful to have been a tiny part of @katiejonesmpls.bsky.social cargo bike journey! Her family borrowed a bike from us last fall as they were looking to evaluate which cargo bikes might best fit their needs. If you're looking to do the same, keep an eye out for our spring orientations!

Today, the Mpls City Council passed the Pause Evictions, Save Lives ordinance, which would extend the pre-eviction notice period from 30 to 60 days. Take action now and call Mayor Frey (612-673-2100) and tell him to stand with our neighbors and extend the pre-eviction filing period.

They’re still lying to us. www.startribune.com/close-to-650...
