There is great stuff still happening on Twitter/X, but we're shutting down our contributions that may infinitesimally help fuel the wealth and power of people with whom we strenuously disagree. We'll be deleting our account on Dec. 1, 2024. Find us at bsky.app/profile/saskat…

Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. toronto.citynews.ca/video/2024/10/…

REMINDER: Saturday 2PM we leave River Landing for "The Thriller" Slow Roll! There will be at least one idiotic costume on the ride, so you'll be in good company if you dress up too! We'll be taking a new slow roll route, so come on out and help us shake off some cobwebs! 😀

Survey Question 6 (edited): "The DEED project has been discussed for years as a way to modernize YXE as an event centre and revitalize the downtown. How would you approach the DEED? How would you prioritize municipal spending to invest in the community?" liveableyxe.ca

Join us this Sat, Oct 26, 2024 for "The Thriller" Slow Roll! Costumes welcome, but mostly we're looking for some chill conversations and a leisurely ride in before the studded tires come out. Where: River Landing Fire Vessel (just next to the @RemaiModern) When: 2PM departure. 🎃

Think about space and geometry. Picture the street if all these people were each driving a car. #Paris People riding bikes make cities work better for everyone, including drivers.

Q 4: "The proposed freeway would put a multilane freeway through the Northeast and Small Swales, likely having a significant impact on what are agreed to be natural areas of outstanding biodiversity and abundance. Are you in favour of the project as proposed? Why or why not?"

We had a great time touring the 2024 Nuit Blanche YXE! 🚲❤️🌛

Cyclists will notice a new bike box on Wiggins Avenue at College Drive, as well as a painted bike lane for Wiggins Ave northbound between Elliot St and College Dr as part of an ongoing commitment from the @cityofsaskatoon for improving road safety for all users.

Can you go a #WeekWithoutDriving? It's not too late to start the challenge! Plus, there's more than one way to celebrate. Keep reading for inspiration on how you can take action in solidarity with all the nondrivers out there who bike, walk, ride, and roll every day!
