Heard about this newfangled hybrid mobility tech that runs on sugar and sunshine, you just stick it between your legs and go

“I don’t look at it as building cycling facilities,” he said. “We are building a city.” How Waterloo Region is making itself future-ready.

Ride for the joy.

[Erin Riediger @erinriediger]

There is a simple joy to riding your bicycle. I advocate for cycling as a transportation tool but perhaps more importantly it does wonders for your mental health. My nightly rides through the city make me feel free and reset my brain like nothing else could. Ride for the joy

[Martyn Schmoll @martynschmoll]

I think it’s way past time we stopped listening to the nay-sayers who insist the demand for bike routes just isn’t there, that biking mode share is small, etc... 12,700 riders on one day, on one stretch of road, is mind-blowing.

Build for those left behind. "[T]emporary restrictions and barriers brought on during COVID-19 have helped... increase...cycling, but locking in those gains, and keeping everyone safe, requires more permanent solutions." Ian Jack, VP Public Affairs, @CAA

@st3v3turn3r Yup, let’s prioritize an *equitable* recovery - transportation options for all are necessary!

[Chris Pollett @london_chrisp]

Thank you @CityofLdnOnt for working amazingly fast.

I reported a sink hole forming and within 2 days this is done. Looks temporary but must have been bigger than I thought.

@bikemayor this was that dip

[Brent Bellamy @brent_bellamy]

Huge. Edmonton’s proposed bylaw eliminates minimum parking requirements for all new development.

All cities need to do this. Allow the market to decide.

(In Winnipeg every unit requires 1.5 parking stalls - 1.2 in mature neighbourhoods)

[Jennifer Herring @harryliketefish]

Women who want to cycle:
Here are things you need to know. (A thread)

1. You are allowed to be there (in the space, in the sidewalk, in the road, in the saddle)
2. You can wear whatever the hell is comfortable for you. I vacillate between shorts and dresses

"Amplify, fund, and implement."
Going for a ride is easier for some than others and the work on this has already been done. THREAD.

[Keith Benjamin @rkbtwo]

It is important that we amplify, fund and implement the work of people and organizations that have already spoken loudly on the intersection of place and race. With that in mind I’ve decided to interrupt your lunchtime to do some amplifying…here we go…

[OEV Riding Group @OEVRidingGroup]

@calliope4112 @vocame @CanadaDan71 For the record, still have no idea what this was about. Anyone care to share?

Here they are - Shelley Carr (left) and her "Bikers Do It Better" partners at RBC Place getting ready to deliver London Food Bank bagged lunches to agencies helping the homeless. What awesome volunteer support. Thanks Shelley and all.
