The 1,700 capacity bike parking garage at Beursplein, Amsterdam, provides parking for the area's shops & other destinations. Open 24/7 and always staffed, it's free to park here for up to 24 hours. Bike parking isn't allowed on the surrounding streets or squares, creating more space for pedestrians.

What happens when a city combines bold political ambition with world-class cycling expertise? Beijing’s Tongzhou District is showing what’s possible. Inspired by Dutch design principles, this flagship cycling corridor is creating safer, more direct and attractive journeys by bike: buff.ly/XatUMAr

This is a masterclass in great urbanism. Mixed-use development, tons of green, wonderful bike infrastructure, and even some space for the car. It's a shame that so many developments are mediocre when such beautiful examples exist. 📍Little C, Rotterdam

Literally Apple and Android could end the majority of distracted driving tomorrow simply by locking out all but a handful of apps when it detects the phone moving at a certain speed and held at a certain orientation.

What solutions are out there for getting drivers off their phone? (non-rhetorical)

How cute is this - a cargo bike with space for 8 kids (spotted in the Netherlands ofc), also saw loads parked outside of nurseries

This kind of mid-rise, native planting urbanism is banned in most places.

Please don't ever look at me as an influencer. I'm just here to inspire, educate, and interact with people who want to make cities and transportation better. In the process of that, I do share bikes and bike products that can make that lifestyle better, but for no kickbacks.

I had the chance to spend the day with Cycling Without Age Vancouver. It would be an understatement to say I was moved. @cyclingwithoutage.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE-e...

Will Americans ever get anything but war for their taxes?

Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu

If this were an ebike, the community would be really upset.

You can’t park there 😂😂 #Chicago

There's a wealthy village adjacent to my small city and we go there often for ice cream. Their streets are full of bikes, ebikes, scooters, golf carts, kids, and slow driving motorists. I attribute it completely to the street design and it pisses me off that we reserve it for the wealthy.

That feeling of tension leaving your shoulders when your kid finally makes it to the safe protected bike lane and you can breath out. Rochester, NY

Sidewalks are everything but pedestrian infrastructure.

Seriously? We can't just move them off the sidewalk?

Take a peek inside Tern HQ during the HSD launch on July 14 🎬 #TernHSD #ternbicycles

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy two e-cargo bikes for a fraction of the cost of a family SUV and that's pretty life enhancing.

Building cities for people shouldn't be a radical idea. The real hostile, unnatural design is blanketing our communities with massive parking lots and urban highways.

We probably need to ban cars until we figure out why this keeps happening.

"it's stupid to drive a car for trips under 1 mile" Our man, Mike, here gets it and he hasn't even ridden an E-bike for transportation. Welcome our newest borrowers who are living the dream of trips with zero traffic or parking woes. #hoodriverebikelibrary #ebikelibrary #hoodriver

Saw a teenager pull up to a pizza place and grab his food. He came back out, walked around to the passenger side of his Jeep, carefully buckled the pizza into the seat, and slowly drove off.

In Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood, 40% of residents don't have a car, and in our last clip Christina from @nettelhorstbikebus.org tells us about the importance of making streets safer for kids, which makes them safer for everyone!

The continuous cycle route between Breda and Etten-Leur was ahead of its time when it opened in 2004. More than 20 years later, it has been improved again: a new cycle tunnel now replaces a busy level crossing. That story in this week’s post and video.

Cycle Tunnel Replaces a Level Crossing in Breda

People who visit the Netherlands for the first time to see and experience the cycling environment often describe being “blown away” by all that they see. But recurring visitors say something similar too. To their pleasant surprise, they often notice the continuous improvements to the cycling infrastructure. In today’s post, I have a fine example of just such an improvement.

I'm dynamically but chronically disabled & experiencing a flare/crash right now & even I was initially concerned about spilling/ something, but my wife successfully brought me my comfort/safe food on her Aventon Abound. You can see her basket was exactly the height to help hold the drink in place.

Does anyone have a photo of a child in front of the hood of an SUV or pick-up that they'd be OK for me to use in a @visionzerokh.bsky.social blog post going out first thing tomorrow? If so, please share with preferred image credit text! Preferably with the child facing the car not the camera! TIA!
