you need to follow @ap.brid.gy or I just get messages from them about how you're not doing that. Instead of getting your messages.

But there they just call it Sunday.

Photo of kids and adults on the street riding bikes. Spring is here! Celebrate the return of flowers, birds and monthly family-friendly Kidical Mass bike rides. We will ride around Northeast Portland on this free, family-friendly, kid-paced bike ride. We’ll ride from Alberta Park playground to Fernhill park on neighborhood greenways, while listening to springtime music. We will stop at Fernhill park to play, then head back to the start The ride is a 3.7 mile loop total, ending back at Alberta Park Meet at 1pm , decorate your bikes and helmets with flowers, then ride at 1:30pm sharp We ride slow for little pedalers. Kids should wear a helmet, be able to ride in a straight line, start and stop. Cargo bikes, tandems, trailers and tag-a-longs are great for kids who haven’t learned to pedal, or get tired soon. We'll ride together as a group, rain or shine, because kids are traffic too!

small slice of the enormous bike rack in front of providence park after the thorns match, very happy to ride in from st johns 18 miles round trip

Almost all tolling I encounter in the Northeast is linked to a transponder or pay by plate - the toll is connected to a specific vehicle with a known make and model - could you not impose tolls based on the make / model of the vehicle?

Modal Filters:

Simple installations that stop cars from using neighborhood streets as cut-throughs, while leaving the route open for cycling. This makes the bike route more convenient than the car route and is how you induce demand.

To get good coffee put bus lanes on Sandy and a lid on the freeway.

the part we would put underground if we had a subway?

🚎🟥🟥🟥

Imagine if we had just started putting bus lanes + actually-frequent service on Barbur in 2015 when they decided that it was an important enough corridor to build light rail there. Instead of improved transit, we just got real estate speculators hoarding the parking lots, & more car-centric plans.

Dan, we can’t create the next Nike because the economy that allowed for that is looooooong gone.

Also, you want more international labor exploitation? wtf?

with dems like these, we hardly need republicans

Do you seriously not even know Oregon has a bike tax? Besides you seem to think cars pay for roads. 🤑

People on bikes pay for more of the roads than they will ever wear out (much better ROI than coddling drivers.) And without even licking a boot to get a car loan.

I'm rather tired of ORdems' gubernatorial coronation / waitlist process in lieu of primaries.

But who will pay to replace the bike racks when drunk car users run over them? Join the conversation about transportation funding! 💸 www.portland.gov/transportati...

Hey, wanna get a beer and I can tell you why you're wrong? 😁

But seriously, I'd love to tell you about Bend's history and evolution and how we're working on that next evolution to less car dependency and more multifamily and missing middle homes.

The electorate is further left than ranked choice would have you believe, because the votes get so fragmented between all of the leftish candidates. It's just multi-round choose-only-one, so your vote doesn't count if you don't vote together.

Can't wait for whenever we have a Democratic president again and very savvy journalists ask why he or she isn't doing a better job of uniting the country.

Lawmakers want $3 million from state coffers for 82nd Avenue bus lanes Lawmakers say 82nd Ave won't reach it's full transit potential without BAT lanes.

I reported last week that the TriMet decision to build BAT lanes on 82nd Avenue was conditioned on others outside the agency raising funds to pay for it.

This is the first example of that playing out...

🚍 ACTION ALERT! 🚍

82nd Avenue is East Portland's Main Street, and our community deserves frequent and reliable transit.

Join me and Representative Thuy Tran in asking the legislature to fund full Business Access and Transit Lanes on 82nd Avenue: #orleg #orpol

I read The Pedestrian Anarchist Cookbook as part of my political science curricula.

We’re going to build the Inner Holgate bikeway any day, right? Right?

I'm usually very weary of people in cars when I'm biking. I assume they all don't like me or don't like people on bikes. Often I feel like they would rather I wasn't there. This morning at this intersection I was taken by surprise! A 👍🏽 from a person in a pickup truck and a wonderful compliment! 😮 🥰

a report on the map "The stop and right turn only signs exiting the Fred Meyer parking lot have been hit and tuned 90 degrees, so they now seem to be directing traffic traveling northbound on Custer St."

tuned indeed

The conservative mind cannot comprehend biking to get car parts.
