A nice piece on one of the @wearehub.bsky.social Bike Buses in East Van. Reach out to staff at HUB Cycling if you're interested in getting one going at your school! #bikeyvr globalnews.ca/video/117744...

Hey, do you know anyone in Vancouver who's 55+ & wants to get more confident cycling? (Beginners welcome!) $100 for 6 sessions of small group lessons Tuesday afternoons at Trout Lake April 21-May 26. (Subsidy available) More info here: share.google/t8dvcE5B4YsV...

THIS. THIS. All day this! I did the math: all the time I've spent ferrying my children to & from school because it wasn't safe for them to walk or bike independently amounts to EIGHT MONTHS. 5,400 hours. It was 99% biking. I don't regret the exercise or the time with my kids, but it's a lot. 1/4

Definitely a #WorstBikeRacks award for these, in the category of "Works better as a bollard"

Hoo boy, this one is right up there in the #WorstBikeRacks awards. Utterly useless!

Add one word to a film to ruin it. Six Seven

When are we going to start allowing bike parking like this in Vancouver???

BC's rollback of safer supply & decrim is killing people, there's no doubt. In the recent @crackdownpod.bsky.social, @garthmullins.bsky.social puts it so clearly: "There has been no political cost for our deaths. There has been a political cost for helping us, & that's why we're seeing this today."

Uhhh, I got this. 😂

Hey @translink.ca, I'm looking for updates on the Skytrain Expo Line issue and don't use Twitter any more. Can you post alerts on Bluesky? There's over 35 million of us here.

#CarryShitOlympics goooooold!

Careful #BikeYVR! The traffic light at Ontario & 12th Ave is out! It's difficult to cross by bike or on foot! #311 @cityofvancouver.bsky.social

I don’t ever want to hear about the male loneliness epidemic again. Start doing something to make your community better and you won’t be lonely anymore.

Good guess! Wordle 1,619 3/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

This one wins #WorstBikeRack in the category of Absolute Accessibility Fail. (Along with being too close together & too close to the building)

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. Safe bike-lanes mean business.

Spooky bird stories. Last year's Halloween comic.

🤣😂🤣😂 Amazing. I need to see this ad!

@tomflood.bsky.social did you see this? 👀

Slightly diminish a book: A Song of Ice & Wire

Ugh, yes. Also: give me the garment measurements. I will decide how much ease I want in the hips/waist, etc thankyouverymuch. Don't give me a "00-12" size chart that doesn't even have waist/bust/hip measurements!!

I love online orders with local pickup--great excuse for a quick bike ride! Hit @samsaracycle.bsky.social to pick up (yes, ANOTHER) leopard print thing. (Did you know they have a 30% off sale right now? 👀👀) Great timing 😂 --I don't think I'll need to wear this windbreaker for over a week! 🥵 1/3

Dropped off a hand-me-down baby/kid chair for our friends. Nice day for a ride & a good excuse for a little #CarryShitOlympics post. 😜

I've had my Tern GSD S10 for SIX years today. 🎂 Celebrated by running errands. 😜 In 24,105km, I've carried many many different passengers, so many loads of groceries, & random awkward stuff like today's mostly full keg of beer. #CarryShitOlympics #GettingStuffDone #WhoNeedsACar #CargoBikeLife

#GettingStuffDone by cargobike on my @ternbicycles.com #GSD: Grocery pickup. Guy who brought out my groceries didn't think I'd get it all on the bike. Haha! This is nowhere near my biggest load. 😜

This is a really fun program, aimed at people of all cycling levels. Riding a bike can be a great way to get to know people & your community.🌞

Come work with me!

If only this were satire.

Uhh, @thecarnivalband.bsky.social can we do this? I've got the cargobike & BikeBus connections, you've got the brass...

This is a whole category of #WorstBikeRacks: obstructed by seasonal plant sales. 🙄

More just-doing-normal-stuff-by-bike content: Bikeshare to meet some friends for a beer.

Also an example of #WorstBikeRacks. Why won't this railing-style of rack die out?!?

Had an awesome #CyclingWithoutAge ride this morning, featuring a ukulele serenade: "A Bicycle Built for Two" 😍

When working at a cafe near a film studio, I made a sandwich for DB Sweeney.

Can't not brag about this: Archive March 6, 2025 Wordle 1,356 1/6 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I read "A Brave New World" at about 15 & reread it again this year, just before I turn 50. So very different & so much more scary now.

This is so needed here in Vancouver too! We've got lots of bike infra & cyclists, there's a couple Costcos near the infra, a huge portion of our population uses carshare--why not cargobike share?

This one takes the #WorstBikeRacks prize, in the WTAF category. Yeesh.

I am honoured for my book Crackdown to be featured in BC Bookworld this summer 🤯📚#booksky bcbooklook.com/on-the-addic...

Not an urbanist. Just a busy parent who wants my kids to be able to walk/bike themselves around so I don't have to take them everywhere.

Sometimes #CarryShitOlympics just happens to you... Was at a friend's place for a clothing swap (brought 2 Ikea bags of clothes!!) & her neighbour was selling a countertop dishwasher! So of course I biked home with a dishwasher. 🤣

#CarryShitOlympics classic: groceries + kid
