Our only vehicle died on New Years and was revived, 4 months later on Easter weekend;) Truckie is alive! And, what's this about gas prices?

Anybody else obsessed with this show because of the music 🎶 and Jack's NY 🚲 bike scenes? And, the fashion.

Such a perfect weekend in the Gorge. Spent the day gardening on Saturday, early evening family ride and... 1/2

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

Portland ✈️ Airport is a great destination for dates. We picked up our daughter last Friday and made an evening of it. #pdx #portland

May I introduce Nicole Bassett who is running for OR Senate District 26. She has been one of our dedicated volunteer wrenchers at Bike Buddies, Hood River's free bikes for kids program. We also share a background in apparel and sustainability, but she worked for Patagonia, a true leader.

Bike Happy Hour in Portland is always uplifting for the advocacy soul. @bikeportland.org @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social @tigard-stripes.bsky.social

No Kings 👑 in Portland We had a bike picnic 🧺 at the cherry 🌸 blossoms - it was glorious watching the stream of marchers across the Steel Bridge.

omg we are so back 🤣 www.nytimes.com/2026/03/25/r...

Almost 20 years as an advocate and I have made many mistakes along the way. Thanks to @carterlavin.bsky.social and @shifter.info for highlighting one of my favorite stories, without which, I would not have a dream job.

👏🏆 to @massbike.bsky.socialand and Plays Place for the Katherine “Kittie” T. Knox Award from @bikeleague.org! This award celebrates advocates and educators who work to remove barriers and make bicycling more inclusive. Award at 15:30->https://www.youtube.com/live/0WMU_chPzcM?si=-aaoIFj5D6ozrc43

"I'm entering the Megan Ramey bike bus stage of my life" Meet Brian Ashworth of Columbus, OH. I met him via the @citythreadorg.bsky.social leadership retreat. He reached out after reading the Bike Bus guide by @pedbikeinfo.bsky.social. 👌🏼logos! Guide 🔗 www.walkbiketoschool.org/wp-content/u...

Cherry 🌸 blossom girl Oregon in Spring is my favorite.

If Interstate exchanges were designed like train stations, drivers would go the wrong way on exit ramps frequently. I have used Gateway to get to the airport almost 100 times and it's still so unintuitive 👎🏼

How will your project benefit the community at large? Safe routes for children = safe routes for seniors (and dogs)! I am furiously working on a grant app for $50K in funding to install 3 more Safe Routes to School sidepaths or bikeways like this in Hood River.

Happy Spring 🌱 from the #80sWalkRollClub

🚡❤️ "Him as his buddies are at the bottom, followed by flags" I love you and your transportation emoji family, Air Tram. This bit had us in stitches. 😂 😂😂 youtu.be/59CpJqCbxXs?...

Say it with me: We don't have a youth e-bike problem. We have an E-MOTO problem.

In 2009, Enrique Peñalosa spoke in Boston. Julia and I met there, shared a mind-blowing moment, and left sold on human-scaled streets… then we became moms. 16 years later, I am proud to quote her in this guide: How to Bike in Cities with Kids www.bikabout.com/blog/how-to-bike-with-kids-in-cities

"Cars are the most absurd means of transport in a city. They are parked 95 per cent of the time. It takes two tonnes to move someone who weighs 70 kilogrammes. And the denser the city, the more absurd it is."

Cycling side-by-side isn’t bad behaviour—it’s human behaviour. It’s how parents talk to their kids. How friends catch up. How communities form. If bicycle infrastructure is too narrow for people to ride and talk together, the problem isn’t the people. It’s the infrastructure. Nørrebro, Copenhagen.

An old tweet of mine below still explains everything: This idea is basically the reason I wrote our guide on biking in cities with kids. 🚲

Join the resistance to ⛽$ gas prices. This lifestyle doesn't happen overnight - I broke it down into easy steps. You are guaranteed to have fun with your kids on the journey and you may be preparing them for a life free from car-related worries. www.bikabout.com/blog/how-to-...

Grant writing requires mandatory cat breaks. Last week, I found out we won a $100k E-bike library and rebate grant. Applying for 2 more: $40k Bike Buddy program and $50k for 5 safe routes to school quickbuilds.

Art wins. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Starting Jan 1, 2027, anyone age 14+ can ride a Class 1 eBike. All ages can ride Class 1 or 2 e-bike if they are participating in a bicycle education program as described in ORS 802.325. Huge thanks to @bikabout.com's advocacy over the years to get this over the finish line. EVERY VOTE WAS AN AYE!

4 youth commissioners, 16-24 years old, wanted for City of Portland’s Sustainability and Climate Commission! www.governmentjobs.com/careers/port...

“I see it as potentially life-changing for teenagers who may choose an e-bike for transportation rather than getting a driver’s license. And that’s really positive for this generation.” Thanks to @wweek.com for my take on a bill we have worked for 3 years on. Article🔗 www.wweek.com/bikes/2026/0...

Really excellent guide to getting kids onto bikes safely and happily! While reading, I was thinking, you can tell between myself and my younger sister who got a more gentle introduction to cycling. Let’s just say only one of us currently owns a bike.

Mudslide PSA! There is a 50-100k ton(?) mudslide on the Historic Columbia River Highway trail between Cascade Locks and Eagle Creek. This made for a crazy hike-a-bike.

"Slow down for 🦊 sake" The 80s Walk and Roll Club endorses this message.

I feel fortunate to live in a right to die state. My good friend who gifted me this Bianchi for cyclocross, ended his ALS journey last Saturday. Our family got to say good-bye to him and tell him how much he changed our life.

Meet Dave Cowan, a rad dad from Minneapolis who has invested a career in active transportation and @saferoutespartners.bsky.social. He graced us with his presence this week and I look forward to returning this favor this October for the National Safe Routes Conference in MPLS.

Portland bound E-Brompton loaded on the CAT 🐈 bus. Hope to see folks at Bike Happy Hour tonight! @bikeportland.org

I was a line dancer on stage for the '94 Superbowl show. Oh, to be a human sugarcane bundle for Bad Bunny! What a show. youtube.com/shorts/qaGB7...

"People can change anything they want to; and that means everything in the world." -Joe Strummer Special thanks to @djjohnrichards.bsky.social and KEXP for the best walking song to serenade our Winter Walk to School. "Radio Clash" had us skipping to school at 7am. #internationalclashday

Narrator: It was, in fact, funny.

"Letting parents be parents and kids be kids" For the 3rd year in a row, I testified why #Oregon should lower the legal age to ride a class 1, pedal assist E-bike, from 16 to 12 years old. Prepare for a Sconnie accent. Written testimony: olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2026R1/D... #HB4007

I feel pretty lucky to have experienced a mid-winter week in Baja. The primary purpose was yoga, but also... 1/x

A very foggy morning kicked off Winter Walk to School Week in Hood River County. May Street Elementary had a great group including City Councillor Grant Polson and 2 doggoes. 1/2

My amazing race today was a good one. It involved a rental car, Trimet, e-Brompton and the CAT bus home. There was a moment on Trimet where the train was stopped for an extended period and I made the connecting bus with seconds to spare...

💚Mpls

Proud of you, Milwaukee 🫡

A little girl in Portland, OR after being tear gassed by ICE. what the actual fuck.

Thinking of all of our friends in the Twin Cities at this moment. What has always stood out to us during our time there and in frequent conversation with our fellow advocates is that what makes Minnesota special are the people. That's never been more clear than right now.

This truck should be illegal. I needed to transport a used engine for our '88 4Runner and this is the smallest thing I could get. So big, I had a hard time finding the spot ID. Trying to navigate out of the deck was a nightmare and I had no people or kids walking around me.

OBSESSED with this soundtrack, thanks to KEXP. We saw it in the theaters yesterday and it was dancing in my seat. www.indiewire.com/features/int...

One of the favorite parts of my job is featuring local artists.

Need to spend more time focused on how we can make it safer for adolescents and teens to use #eBikes, Efforts like the one being used by @bikabout.com to engage adolescents and teens in social events, while educating them on safe use of #Bikes #eBikes makes more sense to me. #TransportationLiteracy
