Come ride with us. 🧡

love this new york times clip. they recently did a story about how sesame street's set has changed over the years, along with our urban politics. IG nytimes

Volume on for a full Mister Roger’s experience.

“I’m a mommy.”

This is how it’s done! 👊🏿👊🏾👊🏽👊🏼👊🏻

Build it and they will come.

Bike girl summer.

Day in the life as a bus bus leader 🧡

Yes we can!

“A startling statistic emerged in Paris last month: during the morning and evening rush hours, on representative main thoroughfares crisscrossing the French capital, there are now more bicycles than cars – almost half as many again, in fact.” And it has kept growing from there. Leadership. #Paris

❤️‍🩹

Mothers on bikes are unstoppable. To my fellow women and gender fluid people—if you want to feel true liberation get on a bike. #motherhood #bikes #lfg #bikebaddies #bikebus

Sound on!!!

For the record, this is in New Jersey…

There’s no demand for bike infrastructure. If you build it they won’t come. #criticalmass

LFG. 🔥

230+ people came out in Montclair, New Jersey for #kidicalmass. It was epic!!!

Leading a HUGE bike bus ride this weekend with likely over 200 people joining. Has anyone led a ride at this scale?! Would love ideas of how to manage!!

I don’t know, there might be more xennial parents/people then you think that are willing to drop everything and join you for a night ride…

Bikes are hope.

Friday morning joy.

Need a bit of a break after spring break? Come join us next Saturday 4/26 for a group grown ups ride! partiful.com/e/bzdLEnYtv6...

Everything is terrible now…or is it?

Bike bus mobilizes change.

Perfectly expressed.

Our movement is not cute—it’s powerful.

“A massive decentralized movement like this—everywhere all at once, with everybody pitching in—is extremely difficult for any regime, even the most autocratic, to derail. There are too many leaders, coordinating in too many different ways, for a movement like this to be easily neutralized.” 🧡🔥

Flood the zone.

Bike Bus kids know they’re super heroes. 🧡

Our manifesto 🧡 (written by @andyjayhawk.bsky.social and moi). #bikebus

Bike Bus is what happens when you grew up being “radicalized” by Sesame Street and Mr. Roger’s, spent your 20’s partying in dense urban places, got your ass kicked by the pandemic, and now are an elderly millennial with 2.5 kids and a cargo bike. #bikelife

Would you rather get to school like this, or buckled in the back seat of a car?

She’s my favorite. #chappelroan

J’adore. 🧡

Biking. The best low impact way we can travel around on this beautiful world.

Our transportation infrastructure (airports, cars, streets, sidewalks, etc) were designed for able-bodied adult men. The data shows that the rest of us are at higher risk of injury/death while using these systems. But when they’re universally designed they benefit all—and bring more joy and care.

This beautiful world.

Bike + Sauna + Community + IRL conversations = The salve humanity needs.

😍

When you're in a very adult setting in a grown up lady outfit and are the only person holding your bike helmet...but then another woman walks in and swipes off her helmet as she takes a seat...it's love. 😍

My thoughts on why parents on bikes have historically done more to push forward bike infrastructure than cyclists in spandex, why the pandemic might have created the bike bus movement, and why most school transportation is deeply inequitable. Also why converse sneakers are the best bike shoes.

This headline sums it up. E-bikes change families lives—and mothers the autonomy and joy a minivan never will. Beautiful @elizabethendicott.bsky.social.

For the nerds: My frame is an all-silver Nishiki custom built by my husband. His is an original Bridgestone RB2, also custom. As a bike dude said to us today in the West Village “a couple of Cadillacs.” I my favorite bikes have always been 70’s Japanese frames.

Perfect summary via @tomflood.bsky.social

My front lawn on a random Friday evening. Adult hang and kids roaming the neighborhood playing. 2 years ago we left the city because we honestly needed just 1 more bedroom and couldn’t afford the $3M+ condos! What I love about our community is we’ve proven you can create an urbanist dream anywhere.

For folks that volunteered for the Obama campaign in 2007, don’t you feel like we’re a pack? This elder millennial YES WE CAN spirit that we apply to everything? Are we lowkey holding the world together right now?

I kind of resent that this is “passport Barbie”, flying to the Netherlands to bike because America isn’t a place for biking.
