This week's episode has 3 great interviews you won't want to skip. Due to a busy schedule, I listened while riding my bike! I used open ear conduction headphones. This is my first outing with any kind of headphones. I was worried about safety. Listening to Bike Talk while biking. Winning!!

A soft wind rustled through some pine trees. You swore it sounded like muffled words. Couldn’t be, obviously. But you listen again. You convinced yourself you heard it. “Rainbow bike tunnels in IRA2” it whispered.

Thanks John! There’s a typo, the movie is actually “bike vessel,“ but still hits as hard!

I'm getting a great education by tuning in to @biketalk.bsky.social Grab your earbuds, favorite morning beverage, sit by the fireplace (it's 31 degrees F in Omaha) and spend an hour with Team Bike Talk.

The latest @biketalk.bsky.social episode features the #TeslaTakedown, @clmarohn.bsky.social of @strongtowns.org, and NYC congestion pricing. I provided a short bike thought at the end about Bill 212 just in time for tonight's #CriticalMass ride. #BikeTO #BikeSky #ONpoli biketalk.org/2025/03/stro...

@thetransitguy.com on @biketalk.bsky.social proposing a quicker, cheaper transit system: BRT. He starts off saying it's not best, but may be the best we (US) can do, right now. Must have dedicated lanes.

It's been a while since I listened to @biketalk.bsky.social, but this episode includes a discussion on how cycling can be aligned with conservative values; something which we need to hear more of. Safe streets should never be treated as ideological. #BikeTO #BikeSky biketalk.org/2025/01/bike...

If you have ever complained about how long it takes to get anywhere in San Francisco by bike, bus, or car, it is time to contact Mayor Lurie to not cut Muni service. Everyone benefits from Muni whether you are a bike rider, bus rider, or a car driver. muniforever.org/rally

Please comment on our city manual update and tell the city of San Diego that unprotected, unbuffered Class II bike lanes should not be placed in the doorzone of parked cars and parking protected Class IV lanes should be used instead. Pg 87 ch 5 sec 5.3.3.1 Class II Bike Lane #safestreets #bikesky
