@texasreb126 That’s great to hear. Inspired by @wandrer_earth, I’ve been taking different routes and making lots of discoveries. Seems like there could have been 200 bikes today.

@simontrose It’s the best! We’re getting more bike racks there this summer. It’s a culture in this neighborhood. My kid is one.

Biking to school is popular at Wilchester Elementary School. What if we made the city convenient for adults to bike too?

I wonder if they’ll also put in some ped lights one block over at Washington and Yale / Waugh? 👀👀👀

Not sure if anyone posted this already, but I went by the Buffalo Heights HEB and noticed @HouPublicWorks was installing pedestrian signals at the intersection. I know a lot of people put in 311 requests for this over the years. Didn’t have a chance to take a picture.

@ob_cycler @CityofSanDiego Based on progress I can only Assume they’re using the Islamic Calendar. Current year is 1445 AH.

@HouPublicWorks @Beyonce Beyoncé on her way to report terrible sidewalks to 311. Hoping that maybe HouPublicWorks will care.

@DannyJoe Yep, and a very similar line in Supersonic by Oasis. Doesn’t seem like any online articles made the connection.

@theSurlyBiker Some upside for wandrer.earth people is that some of those roads are “super unique” and earn you bonus points. Funny, I rode these last week not knowing I’d be forced onto them this week…

In order to get around an entire Addicks trail closure, it would require fighting Shell employee traffic in 2 spots, riding along the I-10 feeder, weaving through disconnected neighborhoods, then fighting huge car lines of drop off traffic at Sherwood Elem (a single lane rd).

🧵 So the @USACEHQ decided to close the Addicks trail in the middle of the day today, with zero warning, no signage, & no alternative routes for bike commuters (hint: there isn’t one). 1/

@lukemetzger All the outdoor stadiums with no AC. Like Shell Energy Stadium. Using less power is a bigger flex.

Very cool! A number of Texas stadiums are also going green. NRG Stadium, the Spurs' practice gym & Q2 Stadium all have solar panels, while the Toyota Center purchases renewable energy credits. Who am I missing? #txenergy
Secretary Jennifer Granholm@SecGranholm

This Sunday, Americans will watch two teams go head-to-head in the first NFL stadium powered by 100% renewable energy. I joined @CBSNews for a tour ahead of the big game to get a glimpse into how the world of sports is making strides in clean energy.

@elmachuca Czech Republic is my favorite. They used to call them dugout dogs at the local ballpark. Used to have bun spike warmers like this. After taking the bun off the spike, they put a lot of cheese goo and ketchup in the hole. When they put the frank in the goo gets distributed nicely

This brings the number of segments that are closed on my work commute to 3. Addicks Trail, Waugh Drive, and Holman St. The alternate route here is i10.

@evan7257 Yep, I meant when smaller entities that have more direct feedback from those impacted make decisions, they typically reflect that group much better. Whereas huge mega entities like COH get bogged down in the layers of bureaucracy, allowing unaffected groups to be overly vocal.
