Took @nashvillebcycleops.bsky.social to McDougal's for lunch and saw a bike locked up to a sign outside. Figured there must be somebody I knew in there, and sure enough... had a delightful lunch with local legend @benvaught.bsky.social! Bikes support a level of community that cars could never.

Lock in y'all, we're talking about East Bank Boulevard again. The Wasioto Bend MCSP amendment is going before the Planning Commission this afternoon. This amendment proposes a new street grid through the Wasioto Bend neighborhood, including the portion of East Bank Boulevard south of KVB.

I think I am susceptible to AI psychosis, but in the very specific way where if I ask it enough questions about why football teams don't deploy multiple offensive players that can throw and run well, it will convince me that I am the next Ben Johnson with my two QB playbook

🚨 🚨 EMERGENCY STREETS PILOT PROGRAM 🚨 🚨 Nashville’s Vision Zero Advisory Committee has been pushing for a similar approach for years, falling on deaf ears at NDOT. Maybe a positive example will give them the push to commit to rapid response like the City of Spokane!

I'm seeing lots of amazing bike bus stories going around on Bluesky, and it got me thinking - could I be a part of a bike bus when my son is ready for elementary school? I live just west of Gallatin Pike up behind El Fuego. That puts our family in the Hattie Cotton Zone for elementary school...

It should be celebrated that in an era where transit funding crises are putting entire systems in major cities at existential risk, Nashville just keeps improving transit year after year, even before we had a dedicated funding source. Can’t wait to see what these numbers look like in 2030 or 2040.

Everyone should be able to walk/bike across the street without fearing for their life. Yet Nashville continues to see pedestrians killed while crossing our roads. No turn on red is a proven step that can help prevent these tragedies. We’ve studied the issue long enough. It’s time to act.

It is a real and recurring issue that committee agendas are populated with items on which there is essentially no substantive update from city officials. This item could have been an email, or update to the project website. So grateful that the chair held some uninformed feet to fire on this one!

TN bike people! I need to say goodbye to my vintage Santana tandem. Late 90s. Campy 3x8. My daughter prefers riding her own bike now and it gets little use. It's worth something, but I mostly just want to get it to somebody who will ride it. Small kids can ride with an adapter.

What nobody is telling you about the new greenway boardwalk: it smells INCREDIBLE! Totally different aromatic experience than the ped bridge or the paved greenway below.

New greenway connector around Ascend Amphitheater smells amazing. Fresh cut cedar (or some other wood species, idk) is so good

It's important to remember that we want things to happen very quickly and the government does not deliver at the speed of expectations. Gallatin Pike and Nolensville Pike are still on the schedule that was presented as part of the referendum package...

Just did the math on how much protected bike lanes / a safe bike route on Gallatin Pike would improve my bike commute: I would save approximately 11 minutes each way, making it close to time-parity with driving on a good day. The route flattens by ~30% and gets far simpler. Details below:

This video is getting rightfully dunked into oblivion, but the thing that I get stuck on every time I see a shitty transpo “public awareness” campaign is: if you’re not going to include any locally specific info, just reuse a good ad from somewhere else!

The World Baseball Classic is an incredible reminder that baseball is about JOY. A base hit should feel like a party. A home run like a festival. A walk off like Carnival. It should be about nicknames that are on their fourth iteration and bear almost no resemblance to the original nickname.
