@harryh that was a surprise!

@GershKuntzman it's been a minute since an earthquake here in the northeast!

I'm not using Twitter much anymore, but this is the place I usually go to say: wow, sooooo many NYC drivers just running red lights these days. Not like "could be yellow or red". No. Everyone stops. Guy moves to the left turn lane to go around everything and through the light.

@travis_robert I've only had bad experiences with dogs outside sooooo 🤷‍♂️

@travis_robert “No one heading to their job or to visit family or to go to a doctor’s appointment should worry that the person sitting next to them possesses a deadly weapon,” Hochul said.

A car is a deadly weapon, and in the city, is often wielded like one.

@richmintz You can do it across 2 at the same time if you have anything longer than a sedan (esp FedEx trucks)

@dxna In many ways, it's a mini society of things people actually want from cities.

@travis_robert I bought new jeans after spending like 2.5 weeks in Europe. I could wear them for like 2 months before I was like "oh no, those are tooooo skinny"

Prospect Park W st is now unsurfaced as well.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

I don't know where to pass on #BikeNYC info these days, but Dean st in Brooklyn is closed or unsurfaced for a while. Court st to about Bond st.

@travis_robert My sister in law brought some kids stuff they didn't need anymore over from long Island. Because she couldn't give em away out there. Gone in less than an hour.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

@PizzaTrike My thought was schermerhorn to Nevins or 3rd Ave, and then continuing on Dean.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

@ennuiboy420 @pdglenn Yeah, if there were only e bikes, your ride was free (that is, the cost of a regular ride). But now, they're charging for the extra goodness of the new bikes. Which I will pay, because they are good!

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

Oh great. Unlocking transportation features for money came to citibike. (Note that I still love citibike, and before they were giving you something for free, but still).

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

Just got my first flat tire in way over a year. The good people at @BicycleHabitat had it fixed in 10 min while I picked up my kids.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

@StatisticsFTW @Scott_Wiener @ArmandDoma Huh. I didn't know about this site. I wonder what action it's taking (if any) in response to complaints.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

@skamille I've never thought of "where do you write 'New York' on a bagel" before, but absolutely not there.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

@thebostonlol Sorry if this didn't come through, but there is not enough room for 2 bikes side by side anymore.

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

If New York is the greatest city in the world, how come we let one of the busiest bike paths get egregiously overgrown with weeds?

[Fred Blau @Phredward]

You know it!
