The Derailleur

He’s the hero biking deserves; a symbol of safer streets & hope for cyclists everywhere, empowering masses to ride w/confidence & spreading safety by example.

Developing great bike-to-transit capacity at NYC stations is an opportunity waiting for say, a transportation commissioner who wants to make a mark as an innovator & “get stuff done” leader. Quality 🚲-🚊 connections are a keystone of sustainable transp but barely register in NYC

UK is largely a 🚘 dependent place but has about 1/4 the traffic deaths/capita vs US - they train their drivers & better enforce traffic laws

To kickoff #bikemonth, the NY Cycling Census results are in! Last year 13,700+ NYers shared their thoughts on biking proving an unprecedented look at where/how/why they ride bikes [and why they don't]!

@TransAlt The micromobility industry refers to them as "pedal bikes" since most vendors have converted their entire fleets to ebikes.

I’ve said before that @NHTSAgov is a failed institution - no reason to change that assessment for an outfit capable of conceiving, producing & approving this

There's no idealogical prerequisite for riding a bike. That's what's so great about it.

Pin a medal on long-time NYC cyclist / advo Doug Goodman, now living in VT. He collected this abandoned #citibike near Burlington train station, jammed it in his car backseat when he drove to NYC yesterday & docked it @ Amsterdam/152. Free fob for a month, at least, @CitiBikeNYC?

Electric vehicles don't reduce VMT, or make drivers any more aware of other roadway users. #safety #Transportation #cycling #bikenyc

Your daily reminder to the livable streets movement that we are losing the War on Cars thanks to enablers peddling the message that everything will be just fine once cars no longer need gas. Pollution is but one of at least 50 things that are terrible about the automobile.

🎉 @activetraveleng is in business!

200m to enable over 16 million new cycling, walking and wheeling trips every year.

Cheap, clean, sustainable….and enjoyable journeys. I think it’s going to catch on! 👇

Mayor & Commissioner who inherited Open Streets & could translate them into permanent pedestrian ways & low traffic neighborhoods are stuck on this one-day fluff

[Bike New York @bikenewyork]

Looks like #bikenyc use has recovered - and then some - from the January omicron+snow effect. Full report from Feb/March counts later this week #bikeboom

It's not enough to just have a sign that says "bike lane.". You have to mean it.
