Where my 🚲 tweets go about commuting in Platinum Bicycle Friendly Community Portland, Oregon.

Does anyone know if any measures have been taken to improve safety on the Springwater bike path (especially to prevent cars from entry)? I’ve seen a lot of horror stories there over the last few years.

@DoorDash_Help Someone is using my email address for an account that isn't mine. I called customer service to resolve this a week ago, and I was told that DoorDash removed my email from this person's account. But it is still being used. Please help!

I’ve noticed a growing trend of pedestrians getting mad when cyclists stop for them at intersections. Rather than enjoying their right of way, pedestrians get incensed that cyclists seem to be rejecting the right of way that they are giving them. 🤯

Anyone else experience this?

Is it legal to jog in the bike lane? #BetterNaito

Interesting news in anti-cyclist, -pedestrian, & -commuter policies: @Safeway in Downtown Portland on SW Jefferson just banned backpacks, panniers, and reusable bags. So much for people shopping here by bike or foot.

@hulu_support @MykeeSteen Incredible that @hulu *support* can’t just forward this clear screen recording of their website glitch to, I dunno, their website team to fix.

My partner almost passed a driver who was too distracted by his phone to go at the 🚦. Then this happened.

This is a cautionary tale to not pass distracted drivers and why protected bike lanes are better than sharrows.

@BikePortland Any chance you (or your followers) have a recommendation for a bike shop that services vintage bikes? Trek Bikes just told me that I need a new small chain ring for my old Schwinn, but no one makes them anymore. 😢

@anna_sullivan_ Get dash cams to support you (or others) legally should anything ever happen. I’ve been screwed over twice for not having video evidence. I recommend @Cycliq which merges cams with day/night lights (use day lights!).

It really stuck that landing. 10/10! 🏅

[Richard @BikinginPDX]

@michaeljvisser @Cycliq Do you know if there are any plans to upgrade the Fly6 to Sport level?

[Richard @BikinginPDX]

@Cycliq Any estimate on when the new Fly12 Sport will be out for sale?

@FedExHelp What happened to the option to sign up for text message updates for each delivery? I am only seeing an email option for two recent domestic US shipments.

World’s most unexpected near hit-and-run?

@OHAOregon So everyone is supposed to take it upon themselves to call their CCO and clog up the phone lines to figure this all out rather than just have a quick/easy unified approach across all Medicaid plans that could be a simple page link or mass email? OK…

[Richard @BikinginPDX]

@OHAOregon Is there any info on how to seek reimbursement for at-home COVID tests for members of Oregon Health Plan? I read that Medicaid covers this. Other than save receipts, what else do we do?

[Richard @BikinginPDX]

@RescueEwe @ClintRCulpepper I haven’t been here in a bit, but I definitely recommend bike-friendly signs. People have yelled at me for slowly biking through here (and I’m super cautious in shared pedestrian spaces, so totally catches me off guard).

[Richard @BikinginPDX]

@BikePortland “bicycle lobby” lol

Right up there with the broccoli lobby taking down factory farming!
