A man riding an e-bike was killed last night on N Figueroa in Highland Park; a driver traveling the same direction struck him. “No criminal charges are being filed.” This occurred just a block or so from where a skateboarder was struck & killed, almost exactly a year ago. abc7.com/amp/post/bik...

What an absolute treat to hear @scottaukerman.bsky.social cover Pink Pony Club at the Don’t Stop or We’ll Die show tonight in Highland Park!

Another person has died in a car-pedestrian crash on N Figueroa in Highland Park. Earlier this month, a woman was hit & killed here, near the library. It’s devastating that anyone should lose their life that way. The design of this street is lethal & has resulted in so many preventable deaths.

Inspired by all the fun bike events I see happening in Portland, I started a monthly mini bike-party for kids and parents. An easy ride followed by a playground hang!

Flier for NELA family bike ride: A mini bike-party for kids & parents the first Saturday of the month. This Saturday October 4th meet at the playground at El Rio de Los Angeles Park in Cypress Park at 9am. We’ll head out at 9:15 for an easy ride on the LA River bike path then back to the park to play!

An actual parking space in this parking lot dedicated to bike parking! I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before, especially not in Los Angeles.

Imagine if the streets of Los Angeles looked like this more often 🚲 ✨

Biked the kiddo to Griffith Park to ride the train. A sweet old-school LA activity; $4 a person and worth every penny! Very grateful this has persevered & the sad Pony Rides have not😏

Biking this morning, we crossed paths with another urban arrow cargobike (possibly from the @activesgv.bsky.social fleet) but this one held 4 helmeted kiddos in the bucket! An image that really exuded joy; great passive marketing for bikes! ✨🚲

Thoughts on parking cargobike in a ‘car parking’ spot? Taking kiddo to an activity this weekend in a plaza/strip mall with no official or ad-hoc bike parking 🫠

A snapshot of happier times: the bike parking at my kiddo’s bday party last last weekend. One of the wonderful families, (dedicated to environment & to their community) who arrived on bike lost everything in the #EatonFire. Please consider supporting if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/support-ma...

Our AQI is the lowest it’s been all week. With fires & devastation so close, does this even mean anything right now though? Do we assume air is not going to be safe for a while no matter these #?

My sister gifted us a Simpsons-style portrait of us biking at the LA River. 😆 On a nice day, the LA River really looks like that! It’s my favorite spot in the city.

Watching Glendale City Council’s North Brand Boulevard Complete Streets Demonstration meeting. Contentious, of course. Anonymous call-in speaker says people can bike at the beach, take uber if they can’t drive; says ‘You need to conform! You need to assimilate!’. Drivers really are miserable.

Favorite thing lately is watching the baby casually flip through a book in the cargobike while we’re out riding. He’s obscured by the rain cover in this photo but it’s beyond adorable to see in person.

Some #bikejoy: our first walk/ride around the neighborhood to get baby used to wearing a helmet, me reacquainted with my Trek, etc. Fun for all! 🚲✨

Active Streets in South Pasadena was baby’s first open streets event! These are always chill, so it’s a good first one. We even made it to a bikes & babies picnic at the local park. 🌳🚲

Baby’s first trip by cargo bike was a success! He even napped on the ride home. 😎

Our new favorite book, Ride Beside Me by @lucyknisley.bsky.social I love that it features different kinds of riders & bikes. I also appreciate that it’s rooted in the reality of what it’s like to bike in our car-centric society. A great addition to any kids’ @thewaroncars.bsky.social collection!

No matter how hard we try to keep our baby away from cars- they’re everywhere, even the doctor’s office 😵‍💫 The auto industry is relentless.

Pregnant & feeling more like a beach ball than a person, my current fave modes of transportation in order of comfort: 1) biking (freedom! fresh air!) 2) walking (moving feels better than not rn) 3) bus (spacious) 4) MicroMetro (sometimes cramped) 5) a ride in a private car (hard to get into/out of)
