Okay! New map! The attachment is the first representation of dataset 1.1, using a lot of dotted green lines (as per the Seattle map legend) to show non-bike-signed routes commonly used by people biking.
(It's not full resolution because Mastodon shrinks it.)
It also includes a couple of actual bike-supporting routes I missed in dataset 1.0, and a lot more dirt/loose gravel trails, particularly in unincorporated King County and on the northern Eastside. But there's bits of adds everywhere.
The dotted green is experimental. Feedback is definitely requested.
Full resolution is at Github, select the map labelled "EXPERIMENTAL":
That's where the bike lanes stop and everybody gets RIGHT the fuck off. People going to Woodinville divert out of their way over to Sammamish River and people going to Tolt Pipeline divert towards 112th via 156th, despite both of those being longer routes.
And I don't know the reason. I can make some pretty good guesses, but they're guesses.
But I don't need to; the heat map tells me what's up.
Has anyone here used the Avondale Road barely-marked "bike lanes" from around the Power Line Trail up to NE 132nd? Because on Google Maps they lack things like "this is a bike lane" markers except at the very, very end. Right now I've marked them as dual sharerows because of how bad they look to me. But are they secretly okay in person?
I didn’t realize it was National Train Day, but it was a great day for a Cascade Bicycle Club group ride to visit every light rail station on Sound Transit’s 2 Line now that it’s in operation! We were even able to use a couple of recently opened bike connections, too #SEAbikes#2Line#PNW#Seattle#Bellevue#Redmond#BikeTransit#BikeTooter
Here, have the quickly-made MEGAMAP 1, a combination of the new Greater Northshore Connector Bike Map, most of the City of Seattle 2023 Bike Map, and the April 2024 2 Line Connector Eastside Bike Map.
It is NOT SMALL. Printed at native 300dpi, it's right about 26" square, or 660mm square.
Bit of a weird question, but did anyone else in the #redmond or #seattle area just hear that screaming? My partner and I heard it way in the distance and I have no clue what that was
1/3 I rode my acoustic bike thru the atmospheric river, & by the end I was swimming but had fun! #SEAbikes
-end of the rainbow …is in Bellevue?
-can’t wait for new 8th Ave bridge for Eastrail to open
-signage/markings at 130th St Station
-selfie w @SoundTransit on the Eastside #Seattle#Eastside#Bellevue#Redmond#BikeTooter#PNW#LightRail
2/3 I checked out the new Overlake Village pedestrian bridge (it’s finally open!) that connects 520 Trail & light rail station
Visually, it’s really nice, mural takes you into a lush green forest
Aurally, it’s loud, as you hear all of the freeway noise thru gaps in mural slats #Seattle#Eastside#Bellevue#Redmond#BikeTooter#SEAbikes#PNW#LightRail
if anyone knows anything available, either for customer service, community development, or entry-level IT online or in the #Redmond or #seattle#washington area, I'd love a heads up. thanks <3
Explore the newly complete East Lake Sammamish Trail in my new video guide! I added history and info on regional connections around #Issaquah#Sammamish and #Redmond
@thurrott Why doesn't #Microsoft just buy this company? I know you wouldn't like that Paul since it would limit access to Brad, but seriously, they are doing a way better job than the #Redmond photocopiers.
Anyone in the #Redmond or #Bellevue area have any recommendations for good authentic mexican food? ive been craving it so bad since leaving the south i need my fix
She asks me: Have you seen my store?
(New store is two blocks away)
Yeah? It's wonderful!
No! My old store!
You mean the missing city block? I may have noticed it, yes.
Shameless plug: If you happen to be in #Redmond or even #Seattle... Halloween is coming soon and you owe yourself the joy that is experiencing this costume shop and the staff.
Did some route-testing & exploring for my light rail ride next week; I’m even more excited for it with all of the new bike and transit infrastructure!
-new Eastrail bridge at Wilburton Station in progress (completion expected this winter)
-new PBL going in on 124th Ave NE Spring District
-so much to like in this pic at Bel-Red/130th Station
-end of the 2 Line (before it gets extended into downtown Redmond) #SEAbikes#Bellevue#Redmond#BikeTooter

We may not have worker protections but at least we have cheap tasty calorie-dense food
