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...

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

Latent demand for #saferoutestoschool is real. When planning this sidepath for middle schoolers, we could not have predicted a group of 12 independent elementary students would use it to walk to swim practice after school. Build it and EVERYBODY will come.

Merry Christmas from the driftless area of Wisconsin

Home for the holidays

Another atmospheric river begins in the Pacific Northwest. It's a good day to let someone else drive. My bike is on bus the CAT bus to Portland. #transit

Forming a mental map is a critical aspect of independent mobility for children. The club members learn this subversively as we take walking and biking adventures around town.

"When the movie was over, I thanked Rob and surprised the hell out of myself by giving him a hug... I went into the nearest men’s bathroom and sat in a stall until I got myself under control. Nostalgia can be dangerous when it’s up close." Forever an inspirational🎥 www.nytimes.com/2025/12/16/o...

Bring winter on!

The #TransitDog of the day is living his best life on a CAT bus.💜

Absolute banger comments about the need for bus lanes on 82nd Avenue from TriMet board member Tyler Frisbee at their meeting Wednesday. I clipped it up for your convenience youtu.be/5UwEepFnoYI

I love when puppies 🐶 ride transit. This guy was living his best life on CAT 😺 bus taking in the views of the Columbia Gorge.

Is it weird that I want to find my 16yo daughter a fake ID so she can go dancing with me? So excited for the 80s dance party tomorrow night at Revolution Hall. www.videodanceattack.com/events

"Children in the community with light traffic created far more detailed maps...of their neighborhood street network that practically could have been handed to people asking for directions," Bruce Appleyard-2017. ☝🏼from #LifeAfterCars, now a bestselling book 📖 in America by @thewaroncars.bsky.social.

Kids of all abilities, whether they are in a wheelchair, skateboard, rollerskate, bike or walk, should have a choice to create their own play without their parents. That's why I do what I do. @getaroundcabooltur.bsky.social podcast: getaroundcaboolture.au/megan-ramey-...

Greetings from beautiful Bend. We are grateful for spending our 20th annual Friendsgiving dating back to Madison life. It's pretty amazing that we all ended up in Oregon by way of MA, MO and CA.

This ADA kayak and paddle board launch in Bend's Miller's Landing is super cool and right off the major bike route. Now I have a goal to do a float and bike shuttle this summer.

"It's forced conformity. That's what's killing the kids. That's the real monster," Eddie Munson ❤️ Bike Bus kids defy conformity, thanks to @coachbalto.bsky.social. Season 5 @strangerthings.bsky.social, let's go! #bikebus

Stranger Things #BikeBus was unveiled last weekend in anticipation of the series finale roll-out beginning on Thanksgiving 🦃 🧵 on why this partnership is pure magic ✨ 1/x

Seeing recent threads from @gravelinfluencer.bsky.social and @bikabout.com about e-bikes (or e-dirt bikes as the case may be), I thought I would throw in my thoughts as a parent of a now-teenager and pre-teen that just moved to a safe place to ride a bike from a not-safe place.

I’m glad to live in a great part of Minneapolis where kids traveling alone is okay. Didn’t start for us regularly until 2nd and 5th but now a year later they are pretty competent on their own.

"Can [your 1st grader] travel alone in the neighborhood (4-8 blocks) to the store, school, playground or to a friend’s home.” Psychologist, Louise Bates Ames, book "Your 6YO: Loving and Defiant" in '79, on childhood development. Life After Cars continues to surprise me. @thewaroncars.bsky.social

For our final Ruby Bridges walk to school day at Parkdale, we gathered under a looming Mount Hood for hot chocolate and walked through some spectacular golden light. And look at those awesome @cleverhood.bsky.social jackets for our rain library thanks to @saferoutespartners.bsky.social!

7 years ago, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and promptly handed her to her mom. Happy Birthday to my star, Penelope. She gifted me my greatest life experience including a 2nd opportunity to bike while pregnant! Story: www.bikabout.com/blog/biking-...

Before the walk: "I don't know you" End of walk: holding hands Walking and Bike Buses build community FAST! This goes out to all our fellow leaders out there and the relationships they have with their students. You are making memories.

5am came quickly this morning, but just like magic, the kids and our panoramic beauty of the Columbia Gorge wakes me up really quickly. Happy Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day.

Every year, my city has the landscaping swapped in our planter protected bike lane to reflect the current season. We just switched from autumn mums to a festive holiday theme, and it adds so much enjoyment to my commute. Infrastructure can be beautiful at the human scale.

4 people radicalized by parenting. Last night's Life After Cars book talk at Powell's was another evening of church. Not surprising, "Cars Ruin Childhood" is my favorite chapter bc of the effectiveness of kids' voices and subversive joy. @thewaroncars.bsky.social @coachbalto.bsky.social
