was actually just going to mention that people are actually looking at the maps project but instead i'm having a difficult time not just saying "nice"

Pedestrians standing two abreast across both cycle lanes.

Me: “Please look out”

Him: “Ease up mate”

I was easing up. I did.

But you wouldn’t walk in a road and say that to an approaching (speed limit observing) car 🤷🏼‍♂️

Van driver doing an unanticipatable three point turn in the middle of two-way moving traffic.

Him, as I brake as fast as I can and find myself alongside his open window: “Why can’t you wait?”

Me: “I’m trying to”

Okay so not long after posting this:

I got a question asking "why are the Seattle lines green" and the answer is "because that's the colour set they use on their map" but the real answer is "I need to include enough of their legend for it to make sense."

So now I have.

If you downloaded it before around 8:40pm Saturday May 11, you might grab the new copy if you want the Seattle legend included too.

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

Well I didn't get any corrections (but found a small one of my own) so the re-implementation of the Greater Northshore Connector Bike Map - now with slightly more map height, contrast, and more easily seen lines - has dropped. Enjoy!

Go to:

https://github.com/solarbirdy/NorthshoreBikeMap/

and pick the Greater Northshore map.

Or if you don't mind .jpg and a little chopped off the bottom I guess you could just grab the preview here, it's at full resolution, just compressed a little and some of the bottom removed to fit.

If you in , you might be interested to know that Margo Bruner-Settles's anti-bike-lane billboard truck ran a red light in front of me today.

The same truck, now passed to the other side of the still red light.

This business felt a bit stretchy on the parkway today but… it’s at least something that’s not flexi-posts?!! Also the whole idea that the parkway couldn’t be single lane is bullshit. The problem at island park is one of public transit, not a lack of lanes for car traffic

My world for a uni-directional eastbound lane on the parkway and a permanent westbound lane for active use so this could be a permanent loop

Cows in La Creuse are really curious. They largely ignore cars but walk or cycle past them and they will come closer and or follow you as you go! 🥰

They do, in this 20-second video footage!

Sunny day, some clouds in the blue sky, green pastures and trees. In the meadow a large group of brown cows run alongside as I cycle on the road.

i am eepy partly because hot

and also because despite that i biked to seattle electric bikes in bothell and ski and bike in and told them about my maps and showed them small versions and once they finally accepted that i really wasn't trying to sell them anything they were really into it

like me they are sick of having no king county bike map and here i walk in with half of one

seattle electric bikes in bothell was even "we would pay you for these" but i know i can't break even doing that so said "just go to fedex"

Went full-on nerdcore today and biked to campus in my academic regalia. Great bike parking.

I'm having a hard time believing, not that a agency would come up with a plan that was to sweep the broken glass and gravel off of the sidewalks and leave it in the bike lanes for a few days before sweeping it up, just that it wasn't done with intentional malice or disdain toward people on bikes. (months after it snowed and they graveled everything while plowing the snow onto the sidewalks)

Dear fediverse: I’m looking for a portable, durable AM/FM radio set to take on bike rides.

I know I can stream radio, but when I’m commuting home after a long day, all I want is to switch on a radio like I’m in a car.

Any suggestions?
