There's a short stretch of road on my bike commute that's narrow, hilly, and curvy. I'm routinely passed on it by drivers hoping to gain a a second or 2 advantage over me.
It's dumb, dangerous, and illegal.

Screengrab from a bike handlebar cam showing me being pinched between a fast-moving dumptruck and a utility pole on the only road leading into downtown Chapel Hill, NC, from the east side. It's a 5-lane road, with a posted speed limit of 35mph, but built to accommodate football game traffic so most of the time traffic is flowing far too freely. There's a sidewalk next to the road, but I'm not in it because it's narrow, often blocked by trashcans, and in bad shape.
This felt about as fun as it looks.

Screenshot of a precipitation map of central North Carolina. There is a vertical slot on the middle of the map showing no rain, sandwiched in between heavy rain to the east and the west.
Living in #ChapelHillNC means getting real comfortable with the term, "dry slot"
Yay for us, but I really do feel for Andy* if this turns out to have been a giant nothingburger.

#ChapelHillNC #weather
Northern Caswell County now.
The sun's gone back behind the clouds here in #ChapelHillNC
Despite the sun being out and the birds having a field day, we just got a "shits gonna get real at noon" alert.
#Weather #NCWX #ChapelHillNC
Squall band bearing down on Charlotte and approaching the NC triad.
Even if we don't get a #Tornado, we're still likely to get damaging straight line winds here in #ChapelHillNC
Meanwhile, the high mountains are getting snow. Because March in #NorthCarolina is always wild.

Our side of #ChapelHillNC loses power if you sneeze too hard.
I'll keep relaying updates from @ncweatherauthority.bsky.social here as long as I can, until central NC is in the clear, or until my out-of-school kid decides it's time for a dance party.

Every one of these idiots risked a head-on collision to overtake me at high speed on a blind curve...only to get to the exact same place at the exact same time as me.

Hot Water Heater install by Noble Duck Plumbing. Every job has a snag. On this install, the drain fitting that came with the drain pan didn't fit... lol.

He was so happy when he realized he was supposed to pull

Um, #ChapelHillNC look outside.
There's white stuff. Falling.
From the actual sky.
no fewer than 5 "motor vehicle used as weapon" incidences on the #ChapelHillNC crime radar for today, and it's barely lunchtime.
#CarsRuinEverything
there's a petition going around to get #ChapelHillNC to go back to picking up leaves that people have blown into the street for free...and...what?
If you have trees on your private property, then that means you are privileged enough to have private property...
As a human person with ears, one of the best things about #ChapelHillNC cutting free leaf collection is the marked, substantial drop in leafblowers use all day long

It's been 4 months *to the day* since Tropical Storm #Chantal damaged a key non-car transportation corridor in #ChapelHillNC.
Yesterday, temporary repairs on #BolinCreekTrail were finished and it's open for business!!! WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A selfie of me in yellow helmet and orange jacket. Behind me are a kid and a man. We're all on bikes on a residential street
Another excellent family outing to #BikeTheVote

There was no #NoKings event in #ChapelHillNC today. We went to #carrboronc instead.
I realized that #ChapelHill has no public space downtown where such an event could be held. Seems like terrible urban planning. Maybe why we and others rarely go downtown!
WAIT...does this mean we might get temporary fixes to our main bike/ped corridors in as little as two weeks?? THIS WOULD BE INCREDIBLY GOOD!!!
