I firmly believe "high performance" cars should be prohibited outside of closed courses. The average human should not be able to buy one or drive one on public roads.

I broke the nubbin off the presta valve on my bike this morning, so I bought a new tube and had it installed while I was at work. On #WorldBikeDay. Where do I send the receipt for reimbursement?

PSA: the things you are complaining about are almost assuredly not e-bikes but rather mopeds or motorscooters and by publicly complaining about the wrong thing you are aiding anti-cycling propagandists who want to destroy all bicycle infrastructure

Cute Lil volcano of asphalt now. πŸ₯°

This #WorldBicycleDay, I'm going to continue to celebrate the marvelous machine that is the bicycle, today, and every day! ❀️🚲

Good Morning Autowa Bonjour Autowa would never.

I dunno if I like or hate the fact that half the bike shop staff knows my name. But I get great service.

I dunno why the main weather app doesn't mention anything about the fire smoke in the air, but again, if you're sensitive or have asthma, mask up, or stay inside. It's gonna get yucky today. Firesmoke.ca

Westboro Beach is lovely! Lots of spots to take in the scenery, and I think the temporary MUP bisecting the beach should stay, as it is helpful for mobility device users, and will keep the sand and grass more separated. #ottbike #NCC

Charging my phone with innocent hope that the clouds will clear and the fates will align enough to see some Aurora tonight....

Oh yeah eh, definitely a gravel washout. Good quality workmanship there. Bayview Station, Trillium MUP. @oc-transpo.bsky.social

For the evening crowd. Cuz I think I'm hilarious.

G4 (Kp 8)/SEVERE Geomagnetic Storming is POSSIBLE tomorrow as a large CME is expected to hit Earth on June 1 around midday UT (morning North America). What is going on? Who will see aurora and when? How can you track this anticipated event? Read on! #heliophysics #spacenews #aurora #northernlights

Well that was a damp ride to work, but whatever cuz I rode on KZM and played crossing guard for about 30 bb gooses. #ottbike #ottgoose

I like how toilets for humans and cats are just what we like to sit on. Chairs for humans; boxes for cats. If we sits, we shits.

Looks like there will be some light presence of fire smoke in the atmosphere around Ottawa for the next 18 hours or so. If you're sensitive, get that mask on. Firesmoke.ca

#ottbike heads up of the day: 2 gravel washouts around Bayview Station: one right at the turn onto Trillium at the ass end of the tracks, one a little further south at the paved path to the tracks. Both right across the south bound lane.

Shout-out to that first of many Insane Summer Storms for hitting just before my EOD, keeping me at work longer (for safety), and ending just after I finally got home. *chef's kiss* annoying.
