exhausted people in an exhausting timeline.

🧵 I'm finally sharing this #BikeBus article you've surely all read by now. But I'm doing so mostly to take issue with the headline. Bike Bus isn't about 'one man'. The author even recognizes some earlier parts of the movement that inspired this revival. 1/4 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Rode to the Brewery Market & Central Library this morning. I can report that all the #BikeHfx downtown protected bike lanes (University, South Park, Hollis, & Lower Water) are still generally impassable: there are sections of clear surface & sections with 2" thick bumpy ice, and some icy boulders.

Thanks to @envirojen.bsky.social and @lecwhite.bsky.social a third in-person public engagement has been added for the Midtown AAA Bikeways project: March 6, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. at the John W. Lindsay YMCA (5640 Sackville Street, Halifax), in the Family and Child Development Room on the third floor

Just in case elected officials are wondering: no, I don't enjoy sending emails calling out the gross negligence done by the city to people outside of cars, I have better things to do with my time. Yall gotta get your shit together. Citizens should not have to send weekly emails to address issues.

Time for a www.madsencycles.com appreciation post. Our family #cargobike. The bucket covers a smaller rear wheel. Room for up to 4 kids with seatbelts and 270kg weight limit! Handles super well. Bafang power assist. It makes our lives so much easier and has cut a lot of unneccessary city driving.

*New date added* Residents are invited to a public engagement session on Thursday, March 6, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., at the John W. Lindsay YMCA, in the Family and Child Development Room on the third floor. www.shapeyourcityhalifax.ca/midtownbikew...
