Was out in the Pacific Spirit Park checking out some amazing adaptive bikes at the RAD Society Try-It day. Some cool bikes and cool people from SAMBA and West Point Cycles too. These are seriously neat machines. #bikeyvr #AdaptiveCycling

As a charitable advocacy organization, HUB Cycling and all its local committees (including the VULC) must remain apolitical, particularly during election seasons. But if your platform includes ripping out existing bike lanes, we're probably not going to like it.

Great coverage on the current Broadway closure featuring @margiesanderson.bsky.social & @yvrcyclist.bsky.social. TLDR: the Cambie closure is going better than Main St. It's not perfect but we appreciate the City consulting with us & HUB and taking proactive steps. vancouversun.com/news/advocat...

Advocates worry about Vancouver bike routes as six-month Broadway detour begins
As West Broadway closes for six months of subway work, road-safety advocates say the Cambie detour is spilling traffic onto bike routes.

Still open as of the morning rush, but according to the CBC, expect this closure to kick in after 11am.

HUB Vancouver-UBC LC @hubvancouverubc.bsky.social · 19/07/2026
Reminder: tomorrow Broadway btw Alberta St & Cambie St will be closed for 6 mo. Buses detour to W 8th but "no turn except buses" signs attempt to prevent private vehicles from doing the same. Instead they will filter on to the side streets where there are many busy bike routes. #bikeyvr 1/4

VULC threw caution into the wind today and ventured into Burnaby to see their fancy new bridge. It's gorgeous and being able to ride from Deer Lake to Burnaby Lake is quite nice! Thanks to all who came out on our social ride! #bikeYVR
The active transportation bridge over Hwy 1 in Burnaby, looking towards Burnaby Lake. There's no one on it! The bridge structure looks a bit like a helix from this end. Blue sky above. A bunch of middle aged people posing with their bicycles in front of the same bridge The people who had their photo taken in front of the bridge are shown on a paved multi-use path riding their bikes through a forest.

Pedestrians wearing headphones are exposed to an increased risk of accidents.

Screenshot from a text message that reads "I didn't really see what happened, but a biker was just hit by a car on 10th between Main and Cambie. The biker rode off after yelling at the driver, so he seems okay."
