"Balance". All access points to transit must be used equially and this one was being used too much. It's the Ottawa way. Oh wait, you said wrong answers only. My bad. #ottpoli #otttransit

Plus another elderly woman fighting for their life. Article has no mention of a driver or vehicle. Did they remain on scene or flee? Did the elderly woman collide at high speed on foot with a post? #ottwalk ottawacitizen.com/news/elderly...

Seconded. Many of these acts are quite minor in themselves, so drivers really don’t get why people (like me sometimes) react badly. What’s the big deal, right? When it’s the third time *today,* or something that happens two days out of three at this particular corner, it gets to be a big deal.

Toronto bike lane removal. When your infrastructure project has huge police protection and the contractors hide the logos on their trucks and gear, you are in the wrong.

Because he believes (IMHO) in consulting the public, determining the needs and then developing a budget to suit. Say you’re going to put a new roof on your house: a smart person determines the needs/value (cheap shingles, good ones, metal, slate etc) and then budgets accordingly. Current model 1/

I brought my ebike in for servicing, so I used my trailer to bring the Brompton with my so I can ride back home with an empty trailer. I'll do the reverse when I go pick it up. I have a hitch on both bikes to use this trailer.

So what you're saying is the counter argument of "not everyone can bike everywhere all the time" when advocating for better cycling infra is BS?

I also have a Burley Travoy trailer. It's a nice trailer. No bag on it in this picture, but it does have one and makes a perfect grocery getter or to carry a folding ladder. 😆 #TheLittleBikeThatCould

Brought the ebike to the shop for tuneup/fall servicing (still planing on riding it for another 4-6 weeks depending on weather, but shops are too busy in the spring). Rode the Brompton back home with the empty trailer. Will repeat to go get the ebike back. Yup the Brompton can haul that trailer. 😊

With heavy rains storms becoming more frequent, this means more run off water that the storm drains can't handle and will flood lower areas.
