jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Luckily she is cute enough to overlook the nonsense in the meantime 111
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 15/09/2026It's been a long 8+ weeks and there is still lots of physio and reduced activity ahead of him. Bit this morning is pretty good. Dog tax attached 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 19/07/2026The city is following the trends and adding gravel sectors to the MUP along the canal. #yycbike 2100
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 26/06/2026The picture doesn't show the scale as well as I hoped, but I had to laugh at one parked next to our little 2800 lb car. 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 23/06/2026Once again, we are visiting BC and I'm envious of simple bits of bike infrastructure. Take your bike to dinner and park it without worry. Seems so simple. 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 13/03/2026Things I find in the back of the closet. Seemed apropos. Wonder if I'll get any comments around the office 😁 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 11/03/2026The camera bird feeder the kiddos got us remains a fave. 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 09/03/2026I noticed last week that the mid-road plastic sign in front of our neighborhood elementary school was finally mowed down. After many glancing blows. It is right at the crosswalk with the patrollers and full blinking lights. School drop off is bedlam in the morning 120
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 01/03/2026On a brighter note, unreal day to be out and about today. 070
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 01/03/2026City of Calgary truck completely blocking the path by Heritage Park. Their reply when they came sauntering back, as I was pushing my bike through the snow, was "I'm not perfect" #yycbike 391
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 28/02/2026Small thing - taking the geriatric blind pupper out in the sunshine to sniff until her heart's content, even though we only get one house away, lifts the weight of watching her decline just a bit. 010
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 13/02/2026Sunrise was kinda ridiculous this morning. 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 06/02/2026Probably this is more your style. Might not fit the Urban Arrows 😁 140
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 06/02/2026What I'm hoping the BikeBike-bulance looks like 1120
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Happy birthday BikeBike! Thanks for setting me up with an awesome bike 16 years ago. Still love this bike. 091
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Received a bird feeder camera for Christmas which is super cool. But because the ground is frozen, the only place I have to install it is a bit too, let's say, convenient. So for now it is an awesome squirrel cam until I can move it in the spring. 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 14/01/2026Other than that, pretty smooth sailing from the hospital to Stanley Park. 160
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 14/01/2026Heads up on the Elbow River pathway near Riverdale Ave. Big semi frozen puddle at the bottom of a hill, on a corner. Was a bit sketchy. #yycbike 4101
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 04/01/2026Quite a winter wonderland day in Calgary 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Sandy Beach hill looks to be open. I only noticed after I rode up the road but it was cleared and there were pedestrians on it. #yycbike 1111
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 16/12/2025Almost twice as long to get to work this morning, that's as bad as driving in the snow. 140
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 08/12/2025The rest of the Elbow river pathway from Rockyview to Mission has had some attention. Even sanded around Stanley Park. Riverdale and Rideau roads are snirty. 2 St bikeway had had no clearing whatsoever from 26th to 12 th Ave. 311 already submitted. #yycbike 341
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 08/12/2025#yycbike update - Sandy Beach hill pathway now not opening until the 11th. Crews actively working on the finishing touches when I went by. 50th down the hill was bare enough to ride down without drama. 162
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 26/11/2025My annual coffee fundraiser where I bring all my gear to the office to raise money for the food bank. Or as I like to call it, bring your sickness to work day. 130
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 22/11/2025I learned to drive in an old blue Volvo wagon. It was fantastic and led to my later love of all things wagon. (This was a few years ago, I'm down to zero but also have no kids to shuttle) 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 15/11/2025I call this "I never ride in the northwest, how do I get out of Kensington? #yycbike 4131
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 12/11/2025Kinda like my idea of one in every ten of these should be mounted on a rigid steel pole 120
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 08/11/2025I finally had to replace one of the LED bulbs I installed when we bought the house. Over 13 years ago. LED bulbs were quite new, and I think these were close to $50 a piece back then. But 13+ years is amazing, look at that heat sink. The new ones are cheaper but not nearly so well engineered. 130
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 24/10/2025New motor, new start for my trusty Skid Loader. Thanks to @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social for getting me back on the road. 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 04/10/2025This is new, the raspberries are producing a second crop It's October 😬 010
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 02/10/2025Well this is annoying. Thought you'd want to know @sprawlcalgary.bsky.social . 110
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 02/10/2025Life made riding the last few weeks a bit challenging, but holy smokes has this week been amazing. Just fantastic conditions and still so many riders out and about. #yycbike 061
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 07/09/2025Last weekend: Dill pickles Pizza Sauce Tomato sauce This weekend: Giardiniera Pimentos Bread & Butter pickles Relish It's great to get back in the canning groove but man am I tired Still to come: Apple sauce Mint jelly 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 30/08/2025Always have one thing in your kitchen that truly terrifies you. 😂 Not really, pressure canning just requires a suitable attention to detail. 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 25/08/2025Getting back into canning after a few years' hiatus. 000
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 19/07/2025Splendid bike racks at the new Oakridge Co-op. This is how it should be done. 3171
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 18/07/2025She may be old, but she gets to roll to the vet in style. 010
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Fetching the Christmas turkey and another grocery trip. 0211
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Riding in the rain is kinda fun if you have good gear. ❤️ my cape 020
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 11/07/2025Riding one of the pathway system's missing links. From 15 St/Highfield Rd to the Bow river pathway #yycbike 121
jpbremner.bsky.social @jpbremner.bsky.social · 08/07/2025Our resident backyard bunny. They've been hanging out for a few weeks, we think they live under the deck and there may be a few of them. 010
