@reroutethe23 Thank you! I appreciate your support! Though I am sorry you are missing a bike! I hope there's a chance of recovering it?

There have been many instances since this, but @WasteManagement it's been at least 15 months and this keeps happening. Here is what the bike lane looked like today.

This is so unnecessary. I moved this dumpster back to the curb. I don’t know if this is on the restaurants or on @WasteManagement but please don’t block the bike lane with your dumpster anymore. This isn’t the first time.

Bike lane opponents: "if we lose our ability to park in front of our own homes, we become prisoners." If this is what you think, you are already prisoners. This is Stockholm syndrome.

@jefposk @SFBART Ah yes, the old "tag and sprint" game

Happy New Year from @SFBART

Hi, Happy New Year. We will ride our first North #Oakland #BikeBus of the year tomorrow, Wendesday 4th. I'm expecting not many kids due to the likely rain, but we will be riding regardless! DM for details. I wrote a bit on riding in the rain with kids: ascentale.com/how-we-bike-wi…

@stuttsy_ @ChristinaUss We just started reading A Few Bicycles More. Lots of literal LOLs so far.

@marykuris @lmc Yeah! My guess is the thieves were in a rush, and missed the small stuff or determined the kindle not worth it. A laptop and iPad were stolen from other bags.

@ascentale @lmc Weird they left the electronics. Have you tried posting about these on NextDoor?

Found a Kindle belonging to a school-aged "J Olivia" and AirPods belonging to someone who swims a lot in #Rockridge #Oakland Hoping to return to owners. Found in separate black backpacks. Dumped this afternoon after break-ins along College Ave Boost/share if you can help!

@RescueEwe We haven’t tried, mostly due to cost/effort. Also even though I’m sure the drag is not too noticeable, I’m hesitant to make riding any slower right now. We currently use mid-level-cheapo lights purchased online. Had a nice PDW tail light but it broke somehow; probably our fault.

The pile of dead bike lights grows. The last one fell apart while riding to school! Thinking about a hub dynamo for the kid's bike. Expensive for sure but I've already spent half the cost on these. Any experience with a dynamo on 20" wheels?

@GeorgeSpies8 Yeah it’s a bummer! They belong to bike bus parents.

Friends’ bikes were stolen today in Oakland please let me know if you spot either of these

@GeorgeSpies8 @buttsmeister @rideact That's the exact technical term I exclaimed when I saw the video!

Good morning from the @rideact TEMPO busway pedestrian crosswalks.

This might have been the cutest part of the #BikeBus This doesn't happen in a car-school drop off line. I love how bikes build community.

The happiest way to get to school. Not just for the kids who ride together, but for the kids we pass along the way. Especially the kid 0:43 in. A car-based school dropoff line doesn't do that. Here's our ride with the #BikeBus this week! youtu.be/iwiSo3GJBOM

@JohnBauters The new lanes on 41st are really helpful for improving safety, we rode through a couple of days ago. twitter.com/ascentale/stat…

@BIKABOUT Looks beautiful!
