They are talking like traffic engineers haven't been trying - and failing - to fix traffic congestion for the last 70+ years It's the wrong question to ask And a good part of the reason we're in the mess that we're in

DBL April Newsletter is out. There are 7 events this week!!! eepurl.com/jEdVgU

Men are 2.6x more likely than women to bike to work. Study finds where protected bike lane coverage is higher, women’s cycling rates rise significantly faster than men’s. Where coverage is limited or fragmented, women’s participation drops more sharply. momentummag.com/the-bike-lan...

“It has also been a challenge trying to recoup money from the state's e-bike rebate program, which he says has left him without tens of thousands of dollars. Hardt says the state has been slow to repay him.” www.cbsnews.com/colorado/new...

Two downtown Denver business owners wrote an op ed in the Post and said that Downtown Denver is “anti car”. 90% of Denver streets look like this.

Bike Lane Uprising is in Denver this weekend! Swing on by SloHi Bike Co on Saturday for their pop up shop and event. And don’t forget to log things in the bike lane!

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.

In the US, ~40% of trips are less than 2 miles from home. Bikes are perfect for this in so many places for so many people. Save money on gas and invest in your health. Ride a bike!

The authors concluded that if we want to improve pedestrian safety, we should remove sidewalks - especially near commercial land uses, which were also problematic...

After riding his bike downtown, we are excited that Mayor Johnston is removing valet parking on Market Street in front of the steakhouse and putting the protected bike lane back in because he favors community over lobbyists.

We hope to see you on Saturday for a meetup with Bike Lane Uprising!

Join us in Denver this Sat, April 4th for a presentation and pop up shop www.bikelaneuprising.com/events/sat-4...

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

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.

“Using a model that compares the costs and benefits of cycling compared to those of driving, the report concluded that the total annual economic benefit from all journeys done on a bike is a whopping £1.81 billion.” www.cyclingweekly.com/news/everyon...

Join our friends from @bikewalkbus.bsky.social tonight to talk about the future of transit.

Speaking with our Director of Transportation and Mobility Planning in Denver many years ago, myself and another advocate brought up the change in Dutch lanes. She flippantly mentioned how they had a gas crisis at the time. Well, what now director? We going to get some bike lanes or what?

World class mayors understand the importance of climate friendly transportation and lead by example

Come on #BikeDEN, let’s beat Portland this week! Report obstructions and dangerous conditions like cars and trucks parked in the bike lane on @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social!

Help us fund this: We're working to send legal notices to companies, informing them they've been added to a national registry of bike lane obstructers. Should they be involved in a crash/fatality w a bicyclist, our data would be available for court cases. www.bikelaneuprising.com/post/legal-n...

Save the date. Join our friends from @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social in Denver on April 4th!

“As part of a day of advocacy and protest day, dozens of Denverites staged a die-in. A speaker read the names of each person who died in car crashes in 2025. With each name called, another person laid on the ground, until there were 93 bodies on the pavement.” denverite.com/2026/03/11/d...

“Soon after the Walk/Roll event, we participated in a “Die-In” in front of Denver’s City and County Building. We were given a rose and one of 93 names for those killed by traffic violence in 2025.” Read more: www.patreon.com/posts/152967... 📸 @denverbicyclelobby.bsky.social

93 people were killed on Denver streets last year. Has Denver's mayor, #MikeJohnston, said anything about any of them? @denverbicyclelobby.bsky.social www.rmpbs.org/news/housing...

Advocates in Denver staged a die in today to remember and honor the 93 traffic violence victims from last year

Hey #BikeDEN new trail for you to check out! www.denverpost.com/2026/03/11/c...

Something strange happened before this story was published. An on-record source backed out and asked to be removed -- after being contacted by the director of Denver's transportation dept. We decided to address this in the story, transparently:

NEW: "The Denver department charged with overseeing the city’s roads, infrastructure and waste management has lost key employees in the past six months as its work has come under scrutiny over recent missteps." by @elliottwenzler.bsky.social: www.denverpost.com/2026/03/11/d... via @denverpost.com

It’s 311 Day. Take action by reporting unsafe conditions to 311 or join us at 3pm at Civic Center for an event to remember the 93 people killed in crashes last year. Or donate $33.11 or $3.11 to our friends @bikewalkbus.bsky.social to help them continue to do great work to make our streets safer.

Hey #bikeden be sure to log those obstructions, parked cars, and unsafe conditions in the bike lane for the @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social March Madness competition through their app. We can’t let Sacramento beat us this week!

This Thursday Denver INC transportation committee is the hottest ticket in town.

Just sayin’

Sign up to participate in the 311 day of action! Coming up this Wednesday. denverstreetspartnership.org/3-1-1-day-of...

“According to the study, this intervention would prevent on average 2.6 deaths, 117 injury crashes and 335 property damage crashes every five years. In other words, not doing this will cost lives and money.” Take a guess if DOTI did it… www.westword.com/opinion/denv...

Sign up to be part of the “die in” next week on 3/11 day of action to represent one of the 93 people killed in crashes on Denver Streets last year at 3:11pm. www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E45A9...

We mourn with the Boulder bike community for the person on a bike killed by a dump truck driver in a right hook crash near Niwot. We express our deepest sympathy for the friends and family of the person killed. www.9news.com/article/traf...

Mike Johnston compares people who advocate for street safety to a pedophile rapist. I’m so deeply disappointed in the mayor.

A great analysis by @nosquish.bsky.social on how Mayor Johnston was gaslighting on @citycastdenver.bsky.social today youtu.be/HDNpRd2U6VU?...

This is some good stuff

Help support Denver Bike fest! Check out details if you’re able to pitch in and help them make this year‘s event possible bikewalkbus.donorsupport.co/page/DenverB...

See you out there tomorrow / Friday morning!

This Friday is Winter Bike to Work Day! We hope to see you at a free breakfast station enjoying the day! #BikeDEN

The trends are clear, we need to build more safe infrastructure for people that have to or choose to bike.
