Who knew Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, etc were soy boys?

Decided to call "mute thread" the Irish Goodbye button

I came across *the* example I have been hammering with these food delivery robots. A man with a mobility aid is forced to step aside because there is not room for him because the robot will not make room for a person (esp. those with a mobility aid who need addditional room)

L.A. redesigned a road to slow traffic. People fought to reverse the safety improvements and won. Then one of the advocates hit and killed a woman walking her dog (the dog died too). This should be a lawsuit. The city is liable along with the driver. www.washingtonpost.com/business/int...

This week's weather is a reminder that many in our community face transportation insecurity everyday, without the option to work at home. Please consider supporting BikeWalkKC this #GivingTuesday as we work to make KC a place where you don't have to drive to thrive! bikewalkkc.org/getinvolved/...

Really shouldn't be surprised anymore, but still cringe at every account profile that's wall-to-wall progressive causes, but think it's ok for other people to die just to preserve a few parking spots or drive as fast as they want.

I am skeptical of the CPSC's timing. These batteries have been on the market for years. Of course the Trump government wants you to stop using your E-Bike. BTW, I called this bsky.app/profile/sund...

Thinks a tremendous program of bike lane data collection and evaluation. Maybe the best of any city governments in the US.

The latest evaluation of bike lane projects in Boston continues to show that if you build bike infrastructure, people will use it. Full report: www.boston.gov/sites/defaul...

British endurance rider Evelyn Hamilton in 1935. Hamilton was a larger-than-life character who helped ferry French Resistance fighters across Paris on a tandem during World War II.

This comment was posted on a letter to the editor about bike lanes. "no one with a disability, injury, age related changes, or small children is going to not use a car. Those groups all need clear streets and access to good parking close to their destination. " Don't be this person! /1

Finally!! A bathroom for people who want to take their bollard with them. What a relief. #WorldBollardAssociation

We had a great turnout this past weekend for the KC observance of the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims @visionzeronet.bsky.social @familiesforsafestreets.org bikewalkkc.org/blog/2025/11...

Stop signing up to volunteer for the FIFA World Cup until prices come down.

As parents demand improved pedestrian safety on Leawood’s busy roads, the City Council will explore widening sidewalks and adding crosswalks for at least one street.

Lots of buzz about the "affordability agenda," and how we get there. Well, this is it. Housing and transport are most of the cost of living for most people. We can make it expensive, or we can make it affordable. “The big difference is commuting. You don’t need a car.” apnews.com/article/hous...

It's the weekend, baby

Not a drag queen

Thanks to @thebeacon.bsky.social for covering this issue and quoting me on my concern that underinvestment in our regional transit agencies leaves them scrambling when the local World Cup organizing committee can't or won't fund expanded bus service to meet the demand their event will generate.

Leading medical publication the British Medical Journal recognises SUVs as a danger to public health in a new editorial co-authored by T&E’s James Nix: bit.ly/4hVDlBC Large SUVs are a danger to pedestrians, cyclists & other drivers. It's time to take action to reduce their presence in urban areas.

The charges allege Brigham P. Morgan “unlawfully, feloniously and recklessly” killed 68-year-old Janet Dam and failed to stop and remain at the scene of the crash, or return to the scene.

Halloween Critical Mass in New Orleans was next level!

Had a great time riding Bike Easy’s Bicycle Second Line!

what I love about e-bikes and the world of small electric mobility is that it is a full scale transportation revolution no one saw coming but that nonetheless has the power to address air pollution death & illness, climate change, traffic violence, affordability, and also social isolation & anxiety

Food delivery was a convenience, until it became a lifestyle. Now America is a nation of order-inners—and it’s destroying restaurants as we once knew them, @elcush.bsky.social argues: https://theatln.tc/SghPaI1R

One of the most common locations for fatal motor vehicle-bicyclist crashes is at intersections, which inherently have a large number of turning conflicts. Reducing these conflicts is a key objective in improving intersection safety across all modes. This Friday at PSU: trec.pdx.edu/events/psu-t...
