READ: If you haven’t seen this yet, please take a look. Motonormativity ("car brain") is a bias that stops people from making rational judgements about driving. This study co-authored by @ianwalker.bsky.social looks at where this bias comes from & how it works. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Winnipeg "quietly getting better for bikes?" 15 kilometres of bike lanes and active-transportation pathways this year and we have "neighbourhood greenways with 30 km/h speed limits" but there is still much to do to make "cycling a realistic transportation option" in our city. t.ly/iA4LZ

When it comes to road safety, cities have two choices: Adapt kids to traffic: keep them indoors and drive them everywhere. Or adapt traffic to kids: make streets safe enough to move as autonomous members of society. The choice says a lot about the kind of city we want to build. youtu.be/O_WjWRmQwtg

A graph of carbon output of transportation modes in grams of CO2 per mile ranks standard car , the worst , followed by hybrid electric car , electric car, horse, bus, train, bicycle, and the lowest emitting is ebike and electric scooter.

One fundamental thing that many folks who think they hate naughty riders don't understand is how often we need to improvise to reduce our odds of getting hurt. The entire streetscape is an inconsistent minefield filled with impatient and distracted people in tanks. My #1 job is getting home alive.

‘It’s the best feeling’: how Copenhagen gave cyclists a green wave. “Traffic lights are synchronised so a rush-hour cyclist at 20km/h can catch green lights all the way.” If you want people to choose not to drive, make the non-driving trip better & easier for them. It’s as simple as that, really.

Sometimes the WAR ON WALKING results in no sidewalks at all. Sometimes they put “something” in — but does that really make things walkable for anyone except those without any other choices? The #WARonWALKING takes many forms, but it’s always about making things comfortable for vehicles, not people.
Image of a wide concrete overpass with a huge truck travelling dangerously close to a thin, uncomfortable looking concrete “sidewalk.” The text says “Don’t buy the lie that there’s a war on cars. They’ve been waging a war on walking for a century.” Tagline at the bottom says the Urban Truth Collective. #UrbanTruth #WarOnCars

#KidicalMassHfx And to the twit who got mad that we were “bringing the kids into [our] agenda,” behold, the kids’ agenda:
An elementary-age girl is riding her bike in the centre of the lane, with her left fist proudly and powerfully raised over her head. She is wearing a black tutu, teal helmet, and probably high heels. A stuffed penguin is in a doll seat on the back of her bike. She is plainly thrilled.

greenways are for calm 20mph or less bikeways that drivers get to use. they are on the side streets drivers demand we use. don’t tailgate/rev your engine/be a whiney lil bitch in your rolling den. slow down or get to a collector/arterial if you want to move fast, don’t do it in the neighbourhoods

If you notice the Garry Street bike lanes were closed this morning. It has been closed in error. Bike lane were meant to stay open. They have not been kept open because there is no oversight on Public Works operations and they do what ever they want.

PPE is the last resort with respect to safe systems. If you tell cyclists they need to wear a helmet to be safe, I see you as part of the problem!

Some drivers whine like toddlers at any hint of inconvenience, and media treats their whining with respect. Having to drive a couple of blocks out of one’s way is not hard. This does not constitute imprisonment.

Always wondered what they expect me to do when I hear the lifted pickup truck coming up from behind me? My headphones are adaptive and someone honking at me gets passed through. But I guess they want me to hear my bones break when the guy in the truck runs me over while he browses tiktok?
