“We should not be building bike lanes and sidewalks that lead nowhere just to count the miles,” he wrote in a statement. “We need reliable transportation options that support climate resiliency”" This from the guy that saw a picture of illegal parking in City Park and suggested we need more parking

Please don't. This is the guy that laughed when talking about there being no crashes in our City Parks and how we needed more parking in our parks not less. This among many other big blunders, his absence has not been a loss. Please just retire. denverite.com/2026/04/17/s...

The only thing that matters /s

I always love a Colorado second winter. RIP to the gardens that got started but this happens every year after we've started wearing shorts for a few weeks. Obligatory "we need the moisture"

This single pylon stopped drivers from using the bike lane to avoid the speed bump It's almost as if design dictates behaviour.

Someone print this out for my city's DOT executives www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Yes, very much take the bus and don't endanger others

All avoidable had they kept with original plan that was ready for construction Being weak spined when you say you're going to do something does not end well in local government Having a reactionary mayor chasing approval hasn't helped & neither has having a wildly unqualified DOTI exec director

Tiina Männistö-Funk:  “As long as traffic is organised as a struggle between the modes, pedestrians will be at disadvantage, but through their flexibility they also constantly call this organisation into question and make its inequalities visible.”

"18 percent of respondents are actively interested in living car-free, 40 percent say they are at least open to the idea." I "enjoy cars,... but if I had the option to walk to a restaurant, corner store, or a friend's house instead of driving, I would." Read More: www.jalopnik.com/2144250/half...

So I was looking at this week's Word of Thanks and thinking "I miss these a lot, would be nice if they had a place you could set up a reoccurring donation" And then I found out that already exists www.9news.com/thanks Not sure why I didn't check this out sooner

The photos NASA has released are amazing www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2...

Car Brain has no nationality, but we are especially affected by it

Truly, parking deranges.

This is the animating idea behind most transit planning to be honest. We must optimize transportation so suburbanites can get into cities as fast as possible.

Truly wild research on the change in bike mode share in NYC, London, Paris and Berlin. Between 2000 and 2023, Paris went from 1 out of every 100 trips being on a bike to *one out of 9!* Many people, including credible researchers, would have told you that that *could not* happen.

When bright feels unsafe. You’re not the one the street was designed for. #SeeYourStreetDifferently #LiveStreetSmart www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Z4s...

Still safer than having supersized pick-up trucks and SUVs in our cities.

We love to print stories about how the Colfax construction is affecting the area but complete swing and misses on showing how much of a positive effect this will have on this notoriously awful traffic sewer. It's going to be such q big improvement.

Good. They don't fit.

I had a driver lean out their window once and tell me he hopes I get hit and killed. That was fun.

Evaluating e-bikes on top speed and performance is a purely motonormative mindset. When people constantly ask "how fast does it go?", it blurs the line between a utility tool and an e-moto, fueling the false narrative that practical bicycles are dangerous.

Denver Mayor Challenge: take your security detail for a ride

The quoted article is from 2019 and we're fighting the same stupid fights

"Meaningful progress toward Vision Zero in the United States requires acknowledging that land use decisions—not just street design—are a primary driver of the elevated risk faced by vulnerable road users." Yup.

The silly thing about this is the bike lane doesn't need to be closed. Give pedestrians the street (which they already have during the closure) and let cyclists ride in the PBL. Stop using it as a parking lot and make it a people street.

Someone listened, it's been moved and it only took three days 😁

Blake Street protected bike lane has been closed for days. Illegally blocking a bike lane like this is exactly how people get hurt and the city shows it does not actually support cyclists and riders who want to get home safely.

When you block a bike lane you endanger riders

311 ticket already closed as unenforceable 🤔 This street gets closed for games and the game is still a day away

The Rockies home opener isn't until Friday but they or DPD have already blocked the protected lane. This seems almost intentionally cruel at this point.

What if maybe, just maybe, we redesigned that intersection to make it safer? We cannot enforce our way out of dangerous infrastructure

As we just faced the hottest winter on record, this article platforms lobbyist for the automobile industry & conservative think tanks saying we are spending too much on climate friendly bike & transit infrastructure.

Hey BikeDEN if you can help out this person on a bike hit by a drunk driver! gofund.me/87e578f60

Some people and corporations out there really want you to be scared of having more things you need close by. Why do you think that is? #UrbanTruth

SO much happening on the street when wasn't just dedicated to vehicles

This was a good afternoon well spent on Larimer Street. I'll have some photos coming later of what I saw. www.9news.com/article/news...

"“traffic jams, more than we already have,” said Christophe Goudy, co-owner of Goudy’s Deli and Market along Alameda, who commutes for up to an hour from his home near Parker." Guy who drives into Denver wants to keep your streets dangerous for his benefit www.denverpost.com/2026/03/29/d...
