Day 27: quick ride out MLK before a day out and about, starting with Liverpool potentially winning the Premier League and heading out for a street fest in S Philly. MLK Drive open to bike and foot traffic only is one of the best things ever. i can't get enough of it! #30daysofbiking #bikesky

One other cargo dad at the #ColumbusCrew game had 4 kids in a Bunch box steerer w party lights jamming tunes. Love to see it - and the corral was mostly full despite sub 50°s temps. Cargo caretakers unite! #30daysofbiking #bikesky #crew96 #bullitt #bunch @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

Day 26: short city stomp and came across this family riding in the bike lane, just before the rain started. friendly reminder - give bikes in bike lanes room - humans are very breakable, kids more so. you’ll get where you’re going, i promise. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 25: i can't say i'm into machine built flow trail. just ain't for me, which is why i rarely hit Trex. i did some digging on TFs and there's an exterior loop i thought could be fun, it wasn't. bikes allowed, but not made for bikes at all. anyway, BETTER'N'NOTHING 😀 #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 24: anxiety is funny innit? had hoped to hit the Belmont Thursday MTB ride/race tonight but my anxiety got the better of me. so i spun the park instead and rode the nerves out. no photos today, just vibes. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 23: a few really sunny days and everything is a lot more green along Kelly Dr! #30daysofcycling #bikesky

Day 22: 27 or 34/35 climbs recon. only had an hour for lunch so i did the first few climbs from CC; Georges Hill, Greenland Dr, & Falls Rd. the easiest of the 27 (or 34/35) but the closest. a chippy way to start the ride. #30daysofbiking #bikesky #phillycycling

BUMP! i know someone out there in the Mid Atlantic is looking for this ripper bike!

Rainy and blowy otw to drop off so we went to check out how the river was faring. It has chilled out considerably! #30daysofbiking #bikesky #cargobike #olentangy #nobadweatherjustbadgear @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

Day 21: quick 30 minute loop around Center City/South Philly. really just wanted to completely relax today but convinced #30daysofbiking will solve all my problems! no photos but here’s the gps flyover! #bikesky

Re: the two flood pics I posted last week. Waters receded leaving some slippy silt that'll be pretty sketchy if it gets wet. No chance in hell the city would drive street sweepers through there tho 🙄 #30daysofbiking #bikesky #steelisreal #waterfordprecisioncycles @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

Day FOURRRRRRRRR TWENNNNNTYYY: got up and got down to Baltimore to ride with some dudes from a shop i work with. up and down and through Patapsco River Valley. felt like dogshit but hey a bike ride is a bike ride! #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 19: rode to Belmont for a lap, broke a pedal inside the first mile so rode out the trail and headed home. better than nothin! #30daysofbiking #bikesky

we are definitely still doing #switchbacksaturday, aren't we!

Day 18: no matter how many times i almost get hit by a car, i absolutely love riding my bike. bikes > cars and there’s no debate. #30daysofbiking #bikesky #phillycycling

With a cargo bike, even a super quick small talk encounter at the bike rack of the organic grocer is enuf to catch a wild conspiracy theory. It happens *every* time. Wouldn't trade it for a 959 #30daysofbiking #bikesky #cargobike #condensation #vaportrail #porsche959 @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

🚨what we're digging this week 🚨 urban riding is both beautiful and strange. the Reid Bikes Blacktop 2.0 will give ya some zip while the Fend Helmets will keep your noggin safe and pack up nicely as you run into school, work, or grab groceries! available at your favorite Mid Atlantic bike shop!

Got to rip a solo one and my watch died towards the end and dropped the last few miles. If it didn't Strava, does it count?! #30daysofbiking #bikesky #steelisreel @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social #columbuscrew #crew96

Day 17: id hoped to hit Belmont Thursday opener but after sitting on the surekill express for far longer than necessary, a short spin home felt much better. caught a nice, but obscured view of the Ben Franklin Bridge from a pier about 3 miles south on the Delaware. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 16: Rothrock rules! long day in the car (why is PA such a massive state??!) got out for a quick rip on some gravel roads. hoped to hit a sick single track descent but followed the wrong road up the mountain. OH WELL IT WAS STILL SICK! #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Sometimes you just put your head down and get to where you're going. #30daysofbiking #bikesky #restday @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

Welcome to #15DaysOfBiking! If you've been here since the start: You're half way to the finish! (We're probably going to have a party about it on day 30 👀) Happy riding out there today! #30daysofbiking #bikemn

Day 15: gale force winds in the Pine Barrens in South Jersey. snuck out for a quick MTB ride from Batsto between shop visits. wind really picked up midway through the ride, but was pleasantly sheltered on the trail. such a beautiful, spooky, and eery place to ride. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 14: sunny, warm, and vibes. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Swollen river blocked me on the way to and coming from the grocery. Unfortunately when it recedes, this'll be peanut butter silt until it dries hard n bumpy mid summer. Something anthropogenic climate something something #30daysofbiking #bikesky @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social #cargobike

Day 14: sunny, warm, and vibes. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 13: wasn’t feeling the bike so i did a 22km trainer ride then took a 10km walk with KP. we strolled Center City to celebrate Open Streets, out to the Art Museum, then through Fairmount to see the house David Lynch stayed in when he was in Philly. #30daysofbiking #bikesky #openstreets

Do more ass-out printing in your lifetime #30daysofbiking #bikesky #cincinnati #cincinnatienquirer @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

Day 12: FINALLY SOLD my old XC bike so i had to drive to Dublin to grab a box and pack the thing up. so i just need a short route home. saw the USS New Jersey and an idea for a walk. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

hey mid Atlantic pals, searching for a nice weekend getaway with some sick riding?! our good pals in Gate City are hosting the 2025 Tour de Possum. a timed 40, 25, ad 10 mile ride through the hills of SW VA, S WV, and TN! there's even the prospect of a Pivot Cycles factory demo on Friday June 6 🙊

Day 11: pretty nasty, rainy day out there and i don't have a fender bike. fortunately, there's an Indego station at the end of my block so i grabbed a e-bike and rolled to the SRT and back. found some cobbles and some fast moving river water. spring rules! #30daysofbiking #bikesky

need a sick whipper? Pivot Cycles has you covered. now in a beautiful Dusk Blue color. modern park geo, SS/geared compatibility, and complete & frame options. hit your favorite Mid Atlantic dealer to check 'em out! unsure where you're nearest dealer is, just ask! #ridemidatlantic #pivotcycles

Fav space unicorn coffee truck got a new banner! #30daysofbiking #bikesky @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social @galaxycoffee.bsky.social

Day 10: struggling with motivation, #30daysofbiking is about the only thing getting me to toss a leg over my bike. but then i get on and it makes me happy because i at least see pretty things. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

the bike paths are cruddy. the mountain bike trails are muddy. the streets are slippery. good thing our good friend @servicecourse.bsky.social has us covered. perfectly timed mail day. now for a few bikes to clean!

done & done

Adult friend and my 3 year old both needed to hitch a ride home from lunch. Good thing we have @ternbicycles.com in #southphilly 🦸‍♀️🚲

me after riding outside this winter:

Day 9: it's wild that going 4 miles out of my way is less stressful than the direct rout home, but at least it's more time on my bike after being in a car all day. got through Italian Market and my street is blooming up very nicely :) #30daysofbiking #bikesky

More cool cycling and pedestrian infrastructure on the Ohio River, both the Cincinnati & Covington sides. #30daysofbiking #bikesky #ohioriver #cinci @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social

📣 A coffee/aperitivo cafe is coming to the former Ultimo coffee shop, all the way from Fairmont: Musette! If we have to judge a coffee place from the pretty exterior wall, we're going to say that this cafe is already looking like a place we will happily visit. ETA is soon! 📍238 S 20th St

Day 8: got out for some errands, took a longer loop around. saw Independence Hall and some green popping up in Rittenhouse. i only had 4 cars try to kill me, that’s not too bad i guess. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

I'm havin too much good time ridin to remember to take a gd pic! Anyway here's the broken zipper on my #larryvsharry #bullitt rain cover kid capsule dealie - any tips on how to repair? Tried a stitch but it won't hold up to zipping over #30daysofbiking #bikesky @firewoodfieldsvcs.bsky.social #lvh

Day 7: spitty, rainy day so only a short ride on my e-Bullitt. no photos from the ride but here's some cats from my morning walk. #30daysofbiking #bikesky

Day 6: tried to get down to the Navy Yard but the Delaware River Trail to no avail. cut through South Philly, the stadiums, a loop around FDR, then to Navy Yard for the Riverfront Philly Crit. got a little soaked so we left early and got lunch on the way home. #30daysofbiking #bikesky
