Looking for a binge listen this weekend? All 6 episodes of my podcast series Plain Bicycle are now available. We talk about Dutch cycling, the @plainbicycle project & why everyday cycling is important Feat @modacitylife, @herbert_tiemens & @plainbicycle pod.link/1510268605

My favourite part of the new @cityofwinnipeg Wellington bike lane project is you can no longer off ramp from Wellington on to Gertrude making it safer for pedestrians, cyclists & kids at Gladstone School @SherriLRollins I hope this is made permanent engage.winnipeg.ca/wellington-cre…

@wildestdreamng @Ticketmaster I was 600ish too and thought nice im getting tickets. Get through and only 800+ dollar resale tickets were available in the nosebleeds. I saw her at the Eras tour. I guess that’s good enough.

Being 600th in line for gracie Abrams general sale today and there being nothing but $600+ resale nosebleeds is unreal @Ticketmaster do better

Its official! This Monday some central Paris streets will be open to people The implementation of the ZTL intends to “free up space in the city center taken up by cars & hand it back to people. The measure is also expected to clean up the air in Paris” forbes.com/sites/carltonr…

Great interview with @jen_keesmaat on CBC Front Burner today “There is zero case to be made that bike lanes cause congestion. There's no data, there's no analysis, there's no study that would lead you to that conclusion anywhere in the world” podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/fro…

The cutest little coffee shop in #winnipeg at Old Market Square today Knapsack Coffee

You could see the Northern Lights from central #Winnipeg last night No Filter

Congratulations @youarestars on the 20th anniversary of Set Yourself on Fire I can’t miss a Stars tour so I just had to come to Toronto this time @torquilcampbell @888yonge

Amazing to see the streets & alleys of Winnipeg’s exchange district so alive at Nuit Blanche last night. There was so much to explore. #Winnipeg is a beautiful backdrop for art Loved to see so many people out, spilling all over the streets @nbwpg

NEW: Today we've announced exciting new plans to pedestrianise Oxford Street. These plans will transform the experience of Londoners and tourists visiting our world-famous high street - and create one of the finest public spaces in the world. dlvr.it/TDK4lR

Join me for an easy going bike ride from the Forks to Osborne village tomorrow. We depart from @TheForks at 4pm. Sign up & details here: winnipegtrails.ca/events/ride-wi… @WinnipegTrails @plainbicycle

Not a bad afternoon commute on Winnipeg Waterways river bus The views are spectacular but the best thing may be riding public transportation in #Winnipeg that takes Apple Pay winnipegwaterways.ca

@julespenner @ARITZIA Haha thanks 😊

Aritzia’s latest campaign captures the cool sophistication of urban cycling. Nice to see everyday transportation depicted in a North American context without sporting gear. “Meet the wardrobe for the art film called Your Life. Then go look ethereal on a bike somewhere” @ARITZIA

@julespenner Haha yes! That’s exactly the point

The promise of the car is a myth, and we cannot stay stuck between two worlds. It’s time to reclaim our freedom, our sense of adventure in our everyday lives by embracing the walkable, cycling city. To do so, we need to embrace a fundamental redesign of our streets. Anti-cycling advocates are right about one thing: in walkable cities, pedestrians don’t follow rules. They can move informally, with ease. That’s true freedom.

I wrote this six years ago. "We designed our cities for driving, and people are dying." Still relevant in Toronto, and most Canadian cities. Not so in London. Not so in Paris. These cities have undergone a transformative change. They have grabbed the bull by the horns and prioritized people and mobility over cars. When will we do the same? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Had the opportunity this spring to try out bike share in NYC & Boston Overall great experience. Dock & unlock with your phone, generally easy to find docking stations & the bikes were easy to ride Big con in NYC was the 30min time limit. Had to constantly dock. Boston was 2hrs

@Porteous3187 That’s pretty weird

@erinriediger The no helmet makes me not give a shit

I feel like the vulnerable road user about to be hit by a bus in this image is pretty good evidence

@bwgilchrist @TragicallyHigh What is this “road tax” there isn’t an extra tax if you drive.

@BichaelRender @RightSideofMB

@BichaelRender @RightSideofMB lol doesn’t even live in Winnipeg

This may SEEM nice online, BUT, Winnipeg is a deep winter city. Even if the lane is kept clear of snow AND ice, impossible, the -60 with the windchill will keep cyclists in their cars. Such infrastructure is an absolute waste. We have a LOT of green space to enjoy cycling in.
