Today is Sextidi the 26th of Germinal in the year 233. Germinal is the month of sprouting. Today we celebrate lilac. #JacobinDay More information on lilac

If you’re looking for some new earrings. I got lots for sale. ko-fi.com/brysonthegay...

It hit 20° on my deck thermometer, so I was compelled to ride my bike to the Arboretum, wearing jorts. In other news, the pathway into the Arboretum just before the hill to the Locks is very wet, soft, and muddy.

I mean, if you're gonna get a Communauto to return your empties, you may as well get a 2-4, and get cat litter while you're at it. Cars are useful in some applications.

That *that* multi use, @ncc-ccn.bsky.social . Please get pick ups off the pathways. They're literally the only vehicle free spaces we have, and yet we encounter vehciles on them all the time.

Apart from the smoother ride, something I like about the new Nepean Bay bridge is the NCC’s tacit acknowledgment its MUPs should indeed be at least 5 m wide; this is merely the latest section redone. Hoping the section outside Westboro Beach gets a similar treatment. #OttRoll #OttBike #OttWalk

The Mayor thinks a sports team is generating an electric feel across the city. No sir, that's the feeling of thousands of people getting out of their homes and cars to recreate out of doors. It's Spring, and we've all got the Fever.

I've had a pretty spectacular day. I've done exactly what I wanted to do, no more no less. I spent almost 2 hours total running time riding my bike. I had pistachio ice cream. I've listened to good music. 10/10 no notes.

Heads up #ottbike Kiweki Point (formerly Nepean Point) is unofficially open today. It is wonderful, a bit hot in the sun until the trees grow in. But some nice shade under the "space ship"

Real world info #ottbike #velogat

The sitch is: Westboro Beach is not "safely" passable. There are a few alternatives, but there is no official detour set up. The @ncc-ccn.bsky.social needs to get their poop in a group, cuz HUNDREDS of people were using the River pathway today. #ottbike

Coming home EB on Scott, approaching a red at Bayview, the 2 front drivers just... drove thru the red light!!?!?!! Were stopped, and then went nawww.... They're fucking lucky no one was coming south from the Parkway! WT ACTUAL F AUTOWA??? #Autowa #BadDrivers

Has anyone biked past Westboro Beach yet this weekend? What's the sitch? #ottbike

I got up early just to have coffee on my deck on a quiet(ish) Sunday morning in the sun. Worth it.

Hold up, is Andrew Scheer talking directly to a Trudeau F🍁cking chud in this video? Does he actually think any of them would vote Liberal?? And did he use the gender neutral 'they'?? A lot going on here... 🤣

Bit rough on the Voyageurs MUP heading east after Commanda where the construction has been ongoing. A bunch of gravel sections. Couple of small snow patches heading west, but nothing unmanageable. Imo. Also: Cormorant Island back in full force. #SeenOnMyRun

Detoured across the Commanda Bridge omw home, just cuz I could. I was surprised by how many people were on it!

Sure would be nice if drivers could turn on their vehicle's lights in low light conditions, and stop blowing red lights. A girl can dream... #Autowa #BadDrivers
