Unreported collisions = invisible safety problems. If it doesn’t get reported, it doesn’t get counted. And if it doesn’t get counted, it doesn’t get fixed. Collision data is what drives: • Street redesign • Bike lane improvements • Resource allocation • Accountability

🧵/1 Off the record = unsafe streets. In Hamilton, most crashes involving people who bike, walk, or use mobility devices never get reported. Not because they don’t matter, but because the system is built for cars, not people.

🎃 Wishing everyone a safe + happy #Halloween! Tonight our streets belong to little ghouls + goblins. SLOW DOWN. PUT THE PHONE AWAY. STAY ALERT. If you must drive, go before or after trick-or-treating OR better yet, walk, roll, or take transit. 🚲🚶‍♀️ #HamOnt #RoadSafety #VisionZero

I have had this meeting in my Calendar for a while now. On June 1 Clr. Pauls told us at Bike For Mike that anything we need just ask. We told her that we need safe routes for students and families to get to school and around their neighbourhoods.

🧵Why #CyclingMatters to me: Almost 12 years ago, I weighed nearly 350 lbs. A short hospital stay for cellulitis turned into a wake-up call. Doctor said: change your lifestyle — or things will get a lot worse. Walking wasn’t an option. Back pain. Sedentary life. So we talked bikes.

We had such a great time yesterday at the first #KidicalMassHamilton Ride of 2025. We had planned a 2.5 km ride from 1 park to a recreation centre and back, Daniel and Abbie and myself quickly realized we needed to change up the route because a lot of the kids were on Balance bikes. So we did a lap

Ford promised bike lane removals could happen today onward in TO (Bloor W, Yonge, & Uni). That means we’ve got to be vigilant & have our eyes open. If you see construction crews amassing to remove lanes, post/tag local cycling orgs & advocates. Send pictures. Be safe & don’t interfere.

True leadership requires more than just a recognition of the importance of transportation. It requires setting a vision, dedicating resources, laying the groundwork for success, and committing political capital, so that when the work gets tough, projects still get done.

A blast from the past circa 2014- "Resistance to bike infrastructure improvements and bike culture, or 'bikelash', is nothing new..." Indeed, it's happening right now with the debate over Penn Ave Rightsizing in the #StripDistrict. Yeah, you’ve seen the billboards. bikepgh.org/2025/03/24/b...

A blast from the past, circa 2014, still applicable to today's infrastructure debates - Joe Wos: "I Was Wrong" - BikePGH

The "bike lanes are bad / cyclists are bad" mentality still persists in Pittsburgh, and we've been dismantling it one story at a time.
