Thanks for your appearance, but I never go to those things. What I can offer is a guided bike tour through your district to discuss where you feel comfortable biking and where you feel like your life is in imminent danger. Serious offer. I'm sure some of the bike gangs would like to join too. - ThreadSky

Not a part of a bike gang. Would be cool tho. But would like to follow along, so I can better navigate downtown.

A bike gang once took my cig out of an ash tray at The Villager and took several puffs when tall bikes were a thing in 2010 and I've had a chip on my shoulder ever since cause that's rude and gross.

But I'd ride downtown and point out issues to
@jkupin4d19.bsky.social

Shit I probably knew those guys who stole your smoke at Villager.

ezrahowru.bsky.social•72 days ago

i was going to say "I think one might have been Molly."

ezrahowru.bsky.social•72 days ago

And I got there on a bike.

mollymcdeath.bsky.social•72 days ago

Lol, I can’t imagine trying to climb up on one of those clown bikes.

ezrahowru.bsky.social•72 days ago

Oh, it just clicked. @angusmcdeath.bsky.social did you own a tall bike in 2010?

dbmay.bsky.social•72 days ago

This is a good idea not just downtown but generally! Taking district CMs on a neighborhood bike tour and showing them what it’s like actually seems like a really constructive way to advocate for biking! I live in D24 - any interest @brendagadd.bsky.social ?

quinevanssegall.bsky.social•72 days ago

I’ve taken @brendagadd.bsky.social around the courthouse garage in my cargo hold to prove how easy it is. I bet she’d be down for a bike ride in the wild outdoors!

brendagadd.bsky.social•72 days ago

YES!

jkupin4d19.bsky.social•72 days ago

New plan. Can you take me around in a basket?

brendagadd.bsky.social•72 days ago

Absolutely! You’re right and let’s do it!

currylee.bsky.social•72 days ago

I’ll gladly take any CM on a bike ride in their district

jkupin4d19.bsky.social•72 days ago

I’m down to hang with a biker gang. When should we do this.

urbaneastnash.bsky.social•72 days ago

Group rides are fun. I would do that sometime.

currylee.bsky.social•72 days ago

Lemme know your availability then I’ll organize it

moxieonwheels.bsky.social•72 days ago

Let’s get Clay Capp in there too and maybe East Nashville Spokes will get started sometime this decade

quinevanssegall.bsky.social•72 days ago

I’m really hoping for a lot sooner than that. We’re working on unfreezing our $$…a decade and I’ll lose my mind.

How long should we go?

neilkornutick.bsky.social•72 days ago

We should ride the full network post connect downtown implementation. 1. To see the gaps that will still be left 2. To see what people will have to deal with for the next 5-9 years if we don’t move faster.

currylee.bsky.social•72 days ago

Depends on your time availability & Stamina/ Battery Life. Connect Downtown is a good basis but as Ben said, it shouldn't be the ceiling of what we can achieve. The study was completed before the Pinnacle Plaza was opened so it's already slightly out of date.

currylee.bsky.social•72 days ago

If time allows I'd also want to highlight unsafe crossing of the Interstate on Church with its upcoming complete street design, the 8th Ave Traffic Circle, inadequate river crossings and CD's inadequate north-south route through downtown, having only 7th is just laughable

angusmcdeath.bsky.social•72 days ago

music city dope pedalers ride on fridays out of frankie pierce park at 6pm. I’m sure nate would be amenable to planning an appropriate route. It’s a no drop ride so it’s chill. I’m down to come along almost anytime if y’all really do this, though.

jkupin4d19.bsky.social•72 days ago

Sounds like fun. Is it rain or shine? Looks like next two Friday’s not great weather…
