Yesterday's slush was this morning's rutted ice. Main streets are in pretty good condition. The Hiawatha LRT is pretty 💩 between Franklin and Riverside stations. Had to get off my bike and walk it over a stretch that was so bad. Be careful out there! #mplscyclecast

Day 28 of #30DaysOfBiking. If based in Minneapolis/St. Paul, use caution whether riding for necessity or bravery. Check the weather apps. It is calm now but could get ugly in 1-2 hours. The rest…well, you know. Eerily empty paths for the most part. #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

Day 23 of #30DaysOfBiking. Went around various bookstores to stamp a local passport. If I get ten in total, I can save across all of the stores. Ended the ride with grocery shopping/dinner. The cycle paths were fine. The roads need more work. It was bumpier than I expected. #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

Day 17 of #30DaysOfBiking. Took one early due to not trusting the weather for later (may go anyway), cut it short due to a truck in the middle of the Midtown Greenway. Some sort of Tree Trust company. Were they allowed here? #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

Day 13 of #30DaysOfBiking. Had an early ride since the weather may get nasty and the wind is already picking up. Had a good lap around Bde Maka Ska where even the local wildlife was having fun. Heading back home a driver ran a red light close to home & almost hit me. Sheesh. #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

Day 9 of #30DaysOfBiking. I was on the main roads today getting some pictures for @sylvie-h.bsky.social for a project. The two included pictures here are not for the project: I just had an errand on the way. Lyndale was scary tonight, and it is why we need a #LivableLyndale. #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

Day 4 of #30DaysOfBiking was an attempt to buy something, but I failed. At least I know what to look for. Also, the path I took will be closed starting in 10 days with no known reopening date. Now, where can I find a decent flat cap…? #MPLSCycleCast #Bikesky

Day 2 of #30DaysOfBiking. Did another morning lunch break bike. Weather was ugly but I was dressed for the weather. Saw some shops to check out another day. No issues with pedaling or cars. Only needed e-bike power for lights. One or two more days of required masking left. #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

I will not let COVID’s effects from last week get the best of me. Did a short pre-lunch ride to get some air. Wanted to do a whole lake ride but best to save my strength for another day. At least traffic wasn’t too bad and no honking occurred in this ride. #30DaysOfBiking #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

One day, I hope to pedal over here in the snow. Not sure if #30DOB will happen at the same time as snow, but we will see. Just glad my health is good for me to walk a little down here. At least I know others were able to cycle here successfully. #MPLSCycleCast #Bikesky

These geese are so powerful they can hold up cybertrucks in the rain by the Lake of the Isles Parkway. Pedestrians and cyclists were about to move freely. #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast

No bike lane on Hennepin going from 26th north. Maybe that is what is being built? #Bikesky #MPLSCycleCast
