Augusta Bike Lane

I hate all littering but what I detest the MOST are these stupid 6 pack holders. In 2024, whoever picks up and turns in the most 6 pack rings to me on 12/31/2024 will get $100 cash. I’ve seen too many photos of animals caught in these things and it makes me sad.

Okay, back on hiatus!

Briefly returning from my Twitter hiatus to say that it’d be a shame if people continued to leave comments (which they keep deleting) about their truck being parked in the bike lane instagram.com/reel/C9u5X_GPD…

@jmd5120 Chicago sidewalks

@thelayneson Yes, some of it should be converted to commercial loading zones. Everyone benefits from deliveries whether you have a personal car or not.

“Money is more important than people’s lives.” - Avid Cyclist

@the_UrbanWolf Yes, agreed! CDOT needs to do a much better job at designating space for deliveries

This might sound crazy, but with a little patience, there is room for both. Cycling and deliveries can both be done safely with separated space, or shared space with different time use or a street designed for slow, patient, sharable space.

@FullLaneFemme That person has clearly never been on Western.

@AugustaBikeLane Someone commented that on this video arguing Western doesn’t need BRT because it doesn’t go anywhere 🙃 It’s at the bottom where it belongs but I couldn’t resist replying youtu.be/s7ep_4jumfw?si…

“Western Avenue doesn’t really go anywhere.” How does the longest street in Chicago not go anywhere? If the Western Avenue bus doesn’t go anywhere, why does its ridership beat out a few L lines? 🤔🤔

@streetsblogchi An invitation, even, to be run over by drivers

Flexible plastic posts are a suggestion, not protection. x.com/AugustaBikeLan…

If @ChicagoDOT had the guts to use real bollards, this wouldn’t happen.

I love this park so much.

Lots of glass in me; be careful!

@MerriamWebster Oxford comma.

@hsrgood The email that’s trying to go through is telling them to never contact me again

@AugustaBikeLane I would simply cut all ties with them

lol

@bedubble I’m not even seeing any of their posts over there! Was it under the CEO’s page or the company one?

I no longer feel bad about only ordering from them when their stickers were on sale

@lumbjackwharfie accurate bc everyone is canceling their email subscriptions to them

@AugustaBikeLane they're gonna call this "cancel culture"

Close to a week ago an associate of mine was injured in a hit and run as they were walking. If you're able to assist her with groceries and lost income as she recovers, I know she'd be grateful. Ve*mo: The_KKutie
