I’ll likely post about accessibility, sign language interpreting, photography, urban cycling, trails & tweets that made me smile. Make a difference & a memory.

@TomBabin Another great video! I love my $30 Decathlon flip gloves-mitts for riding. Warm, & the mitts & thumbs flip back for more dexterity for shifting or even accessing your phone. https://t.co/SBcU0bNL25

@CamGuthrie 1. Walkable city infrastructure (walking & connected cycling infrastructure to reduce car dependency)
2. Safe & secure bike parking throughout the city to reduce theft 3. Increased daily inter-city transit to tri-cities & Milton

#Analysis: While electric vehicles are the sexy side of energy transition, they come with many costs and problems.
As one critic said, "EVs are here to save the car industry, not the planet." https://t.co/dvkHqTei6a

@RevDaniel You’re a kindred spirit. The collection, the DVDs and an early edition of the original. Always love that Anne-girl.

[Jen Popkey @Terpvoice]

Great article. EVs are still working within poorly designed infrastructure.

[Michael Schneider @schneider]

I got tired of everyone (including @POTUS yesterday) saying that electric cars are the end all be all solution to climate change. So I wrote something about it:
