I happened to find myself riding in a line of about 10 cyclists (just regular rush-hour bike traffic in the Garry St. bike lane) and heard a little child exclaim from their stroller: “It’s a bike parade!” 🥰

Older lady peeped the rainbow flag on my bike, asked in a thick Russian accent “It’s your Pride?” She told me her youngest grandchild is “not she berry or he berry but no berry.” I said “Nonbinary?” She got so excited. Yes! Yes! And “Is a secret, but they are my“ *looks around, whispers* “favorite.”

A group of bikers rolling down the Midtown Greenway in the early days of summer. IMO it’s impossible to overstate how important the greenway is to Minneapolis, we’re so lucky to have it. June 2026

"Basic biology"

NEW: Thiel's Dialog society privately told members their data was stolen in a cyberattack. But WIRED found it was just readable to anyone on a misconfigured web page. Its lawyers sent us a legal demand to hand over the data. We passed.

​The Urban Arrow is a great cargo bike, but becomes useless when trying to haul a baby in a car seat adapter PLUS a stroller on the frame. It has few storage options. ​The @bunchbike.com trike makes bulky loads incredibly easy. Trikes aren't for everyone, but when you need space, they are unmatched

My local parent chat is full of people in search of affordable electric cargo bikes. Demand for used bikes is off the charts. The people want to bike!

There’s a bike valet off Granville and Georgia — it’s free! (this week for the World Cup) #vancouver

Go to the comments to be with fellow bike nerds. The spokes, the cables, the brakes, the missing pedals. There’s no end to the creativity of this bike.

Omg the spokes

Where are the pedals? I guess REI is struggling in more ways than one.

I love when I walk into an area with tons of trees and it instantly feels cooler.

Bike commute this morning, gotta stop and take in the ocean and mountain views

Bicycles have the power to change the world.

Important: examples how not to lock your bike

if your dad sucks let me—an actual dad—use father's day to tell you what I think every child deserves to hear from their parents: I'm proud of you, and so glad you're figuring out how to survive this messy world. The world is better with you in it. This is extra true if you're trans.

Woah I would not have know this was a malware prompt (established later in the thread) so heads up y'all - this is happening on Gizmodo currently (or was 5 hours ago, not sure it still is).

Who said you can’t ride your cargo bike through the forest

this is honestly an excellent celebratory and motivational speech from Mamdani at the Knicks parade. i'm ready to run through a wall, and i'm not even a Knicks fan

The final bike bus of the school year. I can't emphasize enough how great #bikebus is for my son: he loves his friends, loves biking with them and the confidence he's gained cycling is invaluable. Have a great summer everyone and here's to many more miles! 🚴🏽‍♂️ @bikebusworld.bsky.social #bikedc

My Haunted Little Free Library is stocked!! Just picked up a paperback copy of JAWS for summer horror readers

Today's post is a banger. newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/elections-...

There is complete industry consensus on this. Every reputable cryptographer on the planet agrees: Signal’s cryptographic protocols are the most secure in class. Period. Just because your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate told you otherwise doesn’t make it true

I listened to the press conference so you don’t have to: - 15 defendants, all from the Twin Cities. 13 currently in custody - Direct Action MN mentioned - quotes and video from people fedposting on Instagram - lots of very obvious lies, local reporters were skeptical and they cut the Q&A off

Another bike, bus and light rail trip to Hood River, Oregon! #MultiModal #OneLessCar #WhatGasPrices

ICE observers in Minneapolis have begun receiving visits from FBI agents sent to intimidate them. A close friend-combat vet, mother, no criminal record-who was a volunteer observer during the ICE crisis, had a visit and was threatened for taking photos and videoed, claiming that filming was illegal.

I can’t stop thinking about this bike line I rode on along the waterfront in Seattle. I almost cried.

Rode a bike in a place that didn't allow cars and now I'm convinced we need this everywhere

Good read… gift link www.nytimes.com/2026/06/15/o...

Fascism's a fever you break with shit like what happened in New York last night. Create more excuses to feel things like that together.

Again continuing my streak of never driving to play a local show #ludwig #bullitt #carryshitolympics

The Dutch mobility system isn't just built around cycling. It's built around bike-train intermodality: cycling solves the train's convenience problem and the train solves cycling's range problem. Together, they offer an attractive alternative to driving on a mass scale. WATCH: youtu.be/jq93DgLvmFc

Just finished The Family Outing by Jessi Hempel #booksky 📚

I’ve been in Amsterdam 80 minutes. Can confirm there are bikes everywhere, just as prophesied

it actually brings me great pleasure to know that billionaires are so afraid of journalists that they’re trying to build whole new systems for justice to diminish our power. despite corporate consolidation, we continue to do something they can’t fully buy and it drives them mad. stay mad, assholes.

Some of the efforts being made in Belfast right now to protect people, because the government can't or won't, will be familiar to Minnesotans.

IRL

My loves, please stay doing your business on Signal

Incredible

My gf has roped a load of churches into getting their members to collect a load of food that can then be distributed to those who need it across Belfast. Many are afraid to leave their houses, even to get food. People have been delivering food to strangers since this started.

i fear that far too few people are seriously considering and planning for what the right will be willing to do to stay in power

I don’t mean to sound dramatic or anything but everyone needs to pick up a book and start reading. We are living through a major literacy crisis.

Please. Stop posting about him. Post about how things could be. Post about the architects behind him who are carrying out the atrocities (educate). Instead of waiting for _it_ to happen, think about what we all need to do when it happens. Outrage without action is _______. 🤝

Graphic novels turn kids into lifelong readers. They challenge readers, transform reluctant readers into readers, they bring joy. They boost vocabulary, increase reading comprehension for brains that take in information differently. They tell a story. Graphic novels are real reading, real books ✨📚😊

Trail run in the forest with my running buddy 🌺 🥰

Make Minnesota Canadian 🇨🇦

If MN became part of Canada we could protect the BWCA 🛶

I want what they have ♥️🚲

Guess who got to test ride the new, weird, and cool ALSO ebike. Truly a wacky set of choices, but man was the full suspension nice
