Having a drink at the airport. Watching Brazil Morocco. Los Lonely Boys just came on. Things are alright

Woodbine United Methodist Church had its windows smashed out recently. Their insurance deductible is $10k. They're raising $ to cover the deductible & to do some other needed repairs. This church is a complex that houses community groups including @bikefun.bsky.social givebutter.com/repairing-wu...

Tennessee is all but certain to execute Tony Carruthers here in Nashville tomorrow morning. He would be the 11th man from death row killed by the state here since 2018. I will be one of the media witnesses inside the prison. Threading my stories for @nashvillebanner.bsky.social about the case here:

Genuine question, what’s going to be done on the East Bank in February 2030?

At BPAC last night @jeguth.bsky.social presented on Nashville bike commuting trends and the interplay between housing, job centers, and improving bike infrastructure strategically. Here's a thread of some takeaways and a link to the full presentation: youtu.be/PbJ3I5ZX6WY?...

Nashville SC wants me to stay

This worked alarmingly well. I really hope we can figure something out while we wait on Spokes.

Streets are for:

Leaving Tour de Nash on the Spokes teaser! Can’t wait for a protected bike lane here. Let’s build one before JRP comes down

Looks like beautiful weather for the Tour de Nash tomorrow! #BikeMonth www.walkbikenashville.org/tourdenash

Tour de Nash @walkbikenashville.bsky.social riders! Are you wanting to check out how this years routes intertwine the other cycling infrastructure in town? You can check out all three routes and all other map layers together at: www.cycling.city?event=tdn-2026

Let’s have some fun Saturday! How are you enjoying Tour de Nash? 👇👇👇

Who’s riding Tour de Nash?! 🙋‍♂️ Share your distance and vibe!

The City of Cincinnati just rolled out 0% interest loans for e-bikes. $100/month, no down payment. Cincinnati hills are no joke, so affordable e-bikes could be a game changer for getting more people to bike.

Saddens me how callous people are to others literally dying in the street Not to mention oblivious to the fact that they’re more likely to die walking or driving than anything else they do during the day

FACT CHECK: No, Tennessee’s new Congressional map does not balance urban and rural communities. Data shows it does exaggerate gerrymandering and put Black and Democratic voters at a disadvantage. nashvillebanner.com/2026/05/08/t...

Assuming Andy Ogles will still represent the 5th district, he will represent Downtown Memphis. There is no bottom.

As of today, 16 people walking or rolling have been killed on Nashville streets this year. This is up from last year, and we’re cutting Vision Zero funding for repaving projects. Join us Monday to demand action.

Timeline cleanse. Bike to School Day in Napier. These kids ain’t afraid of a little rain!

That sounds really good. We should try it

Hear me out. A presidential candidate makes proportional representation a pillar of their campaign. The parties hate it but voters see it as a way to stick it to both parties. Package it with other reforms like banning cong. stock trading. Win a mandate. Landmark legislation in the first 100 days

Good morning -- Let's do a quick public survey! Please repost this if you believe @nashvilledot.bsky.social's Vision Zero dollars SHOULD NOT be spent on repaving a street. Feel free to add in your own comments, too!

What's one small thing that can make the Gallatin Pike repaving project better? Two for me: - Narrow lanes to 10' - Add midblock pedestrian refuge islands at every bus stop

Absolutely heartbroken that this continues to happen in Nashville. We have to do better.

Nashville could rapidly accelerate building world-class BRT on Murfreesboro Pike ahead of the Super Bowl. Instead, the state is blocking airport BRT to favor of a low-capacity tesla tunnel promised by a serial liar.

The entire point of Connect Downtown was to take urgent action to "aggressively advance a safe and connected active transportation network that supports people of all ages and abilities.” So why are we building less than half of the planned mobility lanes in more than twice the time?

This was absolutely 𝑓𝑖𝑙𝑡ℎ𝑦 from Andy Nájar

It may be because it’s 12:30 am but I simply cannot process that NSC just beat América in the Azteca. Just wow.

FT! Nashville SC are into the Concacaf Champions Cup semifinals! The first-ever MLS team to win a match at the Azteca!

This data point needs to be front of mind for every city planner, engineer, and CM For every vocal opponent of bike lanes, there is a strong supporter. The other half of Nashvillians are conditional supporters that will buy-in when we demonstrate all the great benefits of bike lanes

Four people died over Easter weekend on our roads, all under 31 years old. Two more people were killed crossing Lafayette, after someone was seriously injured a week prior. Pedestrian fatalities are up significantly year-to-date. We need more resources and urgency for Vision Zero, not less

The person who wrote the vandy press release does not know how to read polls. A supermajoritarian 72% of respondents want more bike lanes

VAMOSSSSSS NASHVILLE

I just know USMNT won’t have the same luck as the hockey and baseball teams bc ofc they won’t

Today’s sidewalk and bike lane blockages (also reported to Hub): - Metro water truck blocking sidewalk and bike lane next to three open parking spaces - Truck and not pictured trailer fully blocking multi-use path outside Federales restaurant. No room for a wheelchair or bicycle to safely pass

"I don't know if I am supposed to say this, but that was for the guys to break their fast." Brian Schwake confirmed in the mixed zone that he went down to allow his teammates to break fast. #EveryoneN

The sponsor keeps saying this won’t ban e-bikes but it WILL allow cities or TDOT to restrict e-bikes on any street they decide it’s necessary. Meanwhile, a separate bill passed that stripped local authority to restrict delivery robots on bike lanes + sidewalks More rights for robots than e-bikers

If you or anybody you know are worried about gas prices going up, now is as good a time as any to become @walkbikenashville.bsky.social member. Ride the bus all year -$ 50. 1/2 price bcycle . Dedicated support network to annoy council for more bike lanes. www.walkbikenashville.org/membership

I thought the same thing on my way to the courthouse monday. At least while JRP is down. Need to protect at least to 5th.

Current cross section on Woodland Bridge. It’s for a maintenance project but imagine this as a bikeway and protected sidewalk. Turn the third travel lane into a flex lane like JRP. We’d be cookin’

After this tunnel resolution, let’s not lose sight that Murfreesboro Pk is CHYM’s “magic corridor” with its combination of ROW, high ridership, and connection to BNA and Murfreesboro Since Nashville has no formal power over Boring, let’s fight and win this debate in the court of public opinion

Metro Council after dark + Texas primary after dark. Electric Tuesday.

We’re talking Tesla Tunnels tonight. Free food @ 530.

Lesson from today’s ACT meeting, the navigation button at the top of nashville.gov/transit is helpful! I had never noticed it on desktop

$5 million sure would accelerate bus rapid transit to the airport — a project two thirds of Nashvillians voted for. Instead, Tennessee taxpayers are paying $5 million for oversight. Not infrastructure, oversight. Oversight on a project no one asked for that’s delaying progress on better solutions

This is the form email Jack Johnson's office is sending to constituents regarding SB 1782, which opens the door for local govs and state agencies to ban e-bikes and bans Class 3 on TN roads. Walk Bike Nashville and Bike Walk TN are pushing for a deferral on this bill (1/ )

I thank Director Alarcon for her work with NDOT. I regularly disagreed with decisions and priorities but I acknowledge the weight and challenges of leading a DOT both as far behind and expansive as Nashville. Ultimately, I always want our leadership to bring Nashville to the greatness it deserves.

Mukhtar ➡️ Espinoza ➡️ Surridge Get used to this, Nashville fans.
