This website is trash. You're not learning anything here. Go read a book or meditate instead.

@onecolleen I feel your pain. My mother was killed by a drunk driver when I was seven. The guy who did it got 90 days in jail. At the sentencing, his mother complained to my father that her son would lose his job.

In America, it's legal and socially acceptable to kill someone with a car.

@foleymo I have an older GoPro that I sometimes clamp to the seatpost for a rear view. (I use this if I'm doing a lot of on-street biking.) I like the chest mount for a front view; you can also plug in an external battery for long rides.

Flowering trees along Minnehaha Parkway this weekend. 🔥🔥🔥

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

@foleymo Yep. Never leave him without it... Not since I got hit by a car, anyway.

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

Has anyone mapped out a route that hits all of these in one ride?

[MinnPost @MinnPost]

Time to dust off the ol' bike and go for a springtime spin?

From the archives, a look at some of the most heinous hills you'll find in (mostly vertically challenged) Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Breaking two years of Twitter silence to support my friend @foleymo, who had his bike stolen yesterday. Please keep a look out for it, and consider donating to his GoFundMe to replace it. His bike is his main source of transportation. https://t.co/VOxlEjZAT8 #bikemn

Minneapolis Bike Twitter: My ebike was stolen today when it was locked up outside the Hyatt Regency on Nicolette Mall. Let me know if you see this distinctive bike anywhere!

@_jmichaelward The Netherlands. Beautiful cities, wonderful people, bikes rule the streets, great public transportation, etc. And apparently it's very possible thanks to something called the Dutch-American Friendship Treaty.

@risahustad Your rear hub is broken. This happened to me a couple of years ago. You're probably going to need a new rear wheel. 😬

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

@_jmichaelward Which one did you get? I'm trying to decide whether/what to upgrade from the base model.

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

@JenDolen @mitrajunjalali I'm so sorry this happened to you.

Beaver/otter standoff on #MinnehahaCreek tonight. There were some tense moments, but ultimately cooler heads prevailed.

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

@_jmichaelward Counterpoint: No one deserves to see that.

[MN Air Quality Index @mpca_aqi]

These are the great horned owls (all but one, I think) that have taken up residence near a certain Minneapolis park.

Flowering trees on East Minnehaha Parkway, between Minnehaha Falls and Lake Nokomis. #NokomisLife #Minneapolis #SpringVibes

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

Spring vibes.

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

Even more on the way.

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

It's starting to look like a city around here.

[Nick Busse @NickBusse]

Celebrating Earth Day by begrudgingly stopping for pedestrians in the crosswalk and then slamming on the gas and peeling away at high speed so the world knows how aggrieved I am about it.

Delivery drivers will choose to park in the bike lane even when they have full, unobstructed access to a dedicated parking lane. Cool stuff. #MinnehahaAve #VisionZeroMpls
