Riding bikes is 10X more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities. And that’s just the climate emissions. Doesn’t include the massive public & personal cost difference, the air & noise pollution difference, the massive space difference, etc, etc…Via @theconversation.bsky.social

Active travel can help tackle the climate crisis earlier than electric vehicles – even if you swap the car for a bike for just one trip a day.

it's e-bike summer for real - my gf's parents just got e-bikes after renting them for trail riding while on vacation. her mother said to me "i rode it to the bakery to get bread today and it was so much fun!"
had a great day biking around but wow, Columbus needs to build some east-west greenways/protected bike paths that actually fully connect between the Olentangey Trail and Alum Creek Trail. It's such a hassle getting across town in that direction at any latitude.
Anyone have experience with retrospec bikes? I'm thinking of getting the Amok gravel bike as a starter for my planned foray into bikepacking. I know people recommend the Ozark Trail G1 a lot for baby's first gravel bike, but they don't seem to make them in my size (anymore?) #bikesky

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
