Name and shame seems appropriate

Beefier barrier for old slip lane at Gillham/linwood. (Drivers kept moving the old barrier out of their way)

I hear from folks all the time who tell me e-bikes keep them riding another 10 years longer than they otherwise would, or help them get around town when they are no longer able to drive. Especially with our limited bus system. usa.streetsblog.org/2023/11/15/s...

It's nice seeing the hardscapes being installed along SW Blvd for the new multi-use pedestrian-bicycle path. This should make riding a bicycle or walking much safer and more pleasant. Currently it's like riding a bicycle on a highway. Not fun

SIMON, JASON, ROGER, REEVES AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE GRAMMY'S FOR THIS WONDERFUL AWARD; WE ARE VERY HONOURED TO RECEIVE IT. WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK; EVERYONE WHO HELPED IN THE CREATION OF OUR SONGS OF A LOST WORLD ALBUM, PARTICULARLY CO-PRODUCER PAUL CORKETT; 1/3

Next time someone asks you about energy and land use, maybe remind them that the ~35 million acres that currently grow corn for ethanol in the US could produce ~15 PWh per year of electricity from solar photovoltaics. That's ~3.5 times more than *total annual generation from all US power plants*.

The @bikepackingcom.bsky.social folks put together a map of all the Alex Pretti memorial rides happening this weekend. Find one near you! @bikesky.social

“We're going to take every step we need possible because when you cannot trust the federal government to do right, you need to use every tool in your arsenal to address it." Joined CNN this morning to discuss how we will stand up for the rights of all in Kansas City and every city in America.

Sneckdowns are a great concept that really only work system-wide and year-round if you get everybody driving as much as they do when the roads are snowy. Sorry to be an annoying contrarian downer.

Councilmember Persson: walkability and bikeability are so important. In ward 2, a lot of people like to live close to downtown and be able to walk/bike there. There's a lot of areas where there is a retaining wall on one side of the sidewalk and the street on the other, without a green strip buffer.

On Saturday we ride for Alex Pretti 1:00pm at Washburn Fair Oaks Park From Angry Catfish: “We're asking folks to host rides and come together. Bike shops and non-profits, cycling orgs and alt cycling collectives, city and rural. We are many but we stand together as one.”

"We can't take away the hurt, but we can take away the alone" Minnesota has always been and will always be a refuge. Pour into helping each other and in pouring love into our collective future. We encourage everyone to head to standwithminnesota.com to contribute as able.

This hit so fucking hard today.

I'd love to see some research on the economic opportunity cost of all the work, projects, etc. that are getting put on hold until AWC - "After World Cup"

The federal government is hunting for a justification to eliminate key bike lanes in the nation's capital, sources say — and if the feds are able to push that controversial agenda through, some fear it could set a disturbing new precedent for federal interference in local projects.

This morning I watched as a local TV news reporter in Boston chided pedestrians for getting in the way of snow plows because they were forced to walk in the street. Car culture!

NOW HIRING: BikeWalkKC Policy Director bikewalkkc.bamboohr.com/careers/25

This is Minneapolis: My neighbors are so desperate for food that delivered boxes of food are being picked up by other (presumably hungry apartment neighbors) before the intended recipient can open their door & take it inside. Folks are at risk of eviction bc they haven't been able to work. 1/3

Important winter biking PSA: let a good salt crust form on your bike, that will protect it from corrosion.

hey @kansascity.com In-A-Tub was not hit by a car. It was hit by a person driving a car. Language still matters, especially for journalists! bikewalkkc.org/blog/2018/08...

From Charlottesville, VA, a useful finding for those trying to understand why US pedestrians deaths surge after dark: "Night time speeding is 27 times more prevalent than day time." arxiv.org/pdf/2601.10974

Parent organizing successful with efforts to make 83rd Street in Leawood safer! www.kansascity.com/news/local/c...

The push to allow Waymo driverless taxis to operate in Missouri cleared its first hurdle Tuesday evening. #moleg #mogov

Something we talk about a lot is that parents don't want to be chauffeurs for their children. It's unfortunate that tech companies are filling the void instead of safe, reliable transit. And this is only a solution for people who can afford a $20 - $40 fare.

#USDemocracy Green Day is one of the best Remember when Green Day turned “Bang Bang” into a blistering warning about authoritarianism and political violence? It wasn’t subtle then—and it’s even more relevant now. Art tells the truth before power does. #ChoosePeaceNotChaos

Green Day is gonna make him so fucking mad. 😈

I knew I’d find a place for this today! Feel free to repost with impunity!

Loving your neighbor means… letting them park their car illegally?
