L @lisas.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Today’s CPS FB post just in time for @criticalmassyyc.bsky.social tonight 🙄 000
L @lisas.bsky.social · 01/08/2026@criticalmassyyc.bsky.social bubbles and music was a big hit with the kids last night. 071
L @lisas.bsky.social · 21/07/2026The new youth Thousand helmets are a hit with these two. Thanks @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social for getting them in so quickly!! 000
L @lisas.bsky.social · 15/07/2026If anyone is wondering around Crescent Heights on Saturday, the girls are doing a lemonade stand #yycbike 040
L @lisas.bsky.social · 12/07/2026@whoalansi.bsky.social thanks for another great ride! Love seeing all the #yycbike kids getting together! 191
L @lisas.bsky.social · 20/06/2026That moment when you see a mangled bicycle and the road you regularly ride is closed. Hoping everyone is ok. 120
L @lisas.bsky.social · 22/05/2026One of the oddest things to me is adults driving for ice on a warm, sunny day and then sitting in their idling vehicle for 20 minutes while you eat your double scoop in your cars AC. 050
L @lisas.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Our first time checking out the Sheep River today. These two did great- even twin A who only likes going down hill and was very incredibly angry at the mountains for all being uphill. We saw no sheep, 5 deer, a burrowing owl (!!!), a Great Horned owl and one tick 😬. We also dodged 16 piles of 💩 080
L @lisas.bsky.social · 11/04/2026When you have an irresponsible parent who doesn’t pack gloves for our bike ride, the children get to stop at fun cafes to warm their little fingers. 010
L @lisas.bsky.social · 14/03/2026What age did you let your kids start biking places alone? Destinations would be within 1 km of our home. 541
L @lisas.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Taking all my parenting advice from Ol’ Dirty Bastard. Unedited hip hop and F-bombs at breakfast? 100% ok. Being mean to your sister? Absolutely not. 000
L @lisas.bsky.social · 17/10/2025Me being an irresponsible parent allowing my kids to ride all over the road while I take this video 🙃🙄 040
L @lisas.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Teaching my kids reminds me how incredible teachers are. We’ve dropped the provincially released strike curriculum and are learning to sew instead—so fair warning: handmade gifts for everyone this Christmas! #yyc 130
L @lisas.bsky.social · 11/10/2025It’s true, this goat held on for 25 km. I was glad I had one in my pannier bag for it! 020
L @lisas.bsky.social · 28/09/2025We made it out for one last 2025 BVP ride. The 7s (they are 7 now!!) did spectacular as always and used their birthday money to purchase Johnston Canyon goats. 6 hours, 50 km, a few tears, lots of smiles, and now an exhausted family. 070
L @lisas.bsky.social · 21/09/2025If you need a ladder to get in, maybe it’s too tall to be sharing the road with kids 0162
L @lisas.bsky.social · 20/09/2025Somehow we have gone from toddlers riding in the urban arrow to independent riders and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I am so proud of how independent these two are and I love all that them riding brings but I am still struggling with the fact that they don’t want to ride in the UA anymore. 050
L @lisas.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Anyone have suggestions or comments on any of these suggested bike routes? I just want safe and easy…. #yycbike 410
L @lisas.bsky.social · 03/09/2025Smoke season: when it’s too hot to keep the windows closed, too smoky to open them, and you feel guilty running the AC because the planet’s already on fire—yet it’s still too warm inside to sleep. #yyc 180
L @lisas.bsky.social · 02/09/2025First day of grade 2 was a smokey one but we still got out there on our bikes. Happy to see full bike racks and lots of parents arriving with kids on bikes this morning! 050
L @lisas.bsky.social · 30/08/2025When two sets of twins plan a play date where they bike to Johnston’s Canyon for ice cream the parents make it happen. I will say the 45 km return trip was much easier emotionally with 2 more parents and friends but it took at an additional 90 minutes compared to the spring. 140
L @lisas.bsky.social · 28/08/2025Sometimes in August you need to transport a Christmas tree #yycbike 2305
L @lisas.bsky.social · 26/08/2025Today was the seasonal wake up before dawn to sign your kids up for swimming lessons day. Logged in at 5:30 to get into the queue, registered by 7am. Better than previous years but still a process. 000
L @lisas.bsky.social · 22/08/2025I responded to his response and cc’d my MLA. I appreciate having an NDP MLA and that they don’t seem too annoyed that I cc them in my emails. 330
L @lisas.bsky.social · 19/08/2025Oh I got this response last night to a letter I sent over a month ago. 120
L @lisas.bsky.social · 03/08/2025Summer days are riding your bike to and from the outdoor pool in your swimsuits, listening to music and being outside. Side note- the pink polka dot swim suit is my first attempt at sewing a swimsuit!!! 1250
L @lisas.bsky.social · 01/08/2025Explaining 4-way stop rules to my 6-year-olds—after a driver who rolled through the intersection told us to learn the rules of the road. 140
L @lisas.bsky.social · 26/07/2025I used to love to cook but since having kids it has become a chore that I dislike. My kids often eat the most random meals. One night this week they each had half a watermelon and mini pizza. They were fed and no one cried and there were minimal dishes… it’s a win in my mind. 270
L @lisas.bsky.social · 20/07/2025Tracking our bike kilometres this summer. This is the last 7 weeks of biking for my 6 year olds. I love that they are so excited to mark the charts daily! 061
L @lisas.bsky.social · 08/07/2025I periodically get these electricity usage reports. I have updated our appliances, we turn lights off when we aren’t using them, we do most of the stuff advised but we are always in the fair zone. I wish condos had more options to be energy efficient when the condo board isn’t inclined. 130
L @lisas.bsky.social · 06/07/2025“Can we go to the park so we can read in a tree?” Yes, always yes. 020
L @lisas.bsky.social · 17/06/2025Does anyone have a photo of salamander crossing sign that had the googly eyes on it? I need one for work without my kids in it. #yycbike 060
L @lisas.bsky.social · 15/06/2025These two biked up and down hills all day. The worst that happens is the kids walk their bikes! 000
L @lisas.bsky.social · 13/06/2025Father’s Day will always be a heart wrenching time of year in our home. Phil would have loved this card. #childhoodgrief 141
L @lisas.bsky.social · 11/06/2025I guess it’s mask bike season again. These kids are 6.5 and don’t know summers without smoke. #yycbike 811017
L @lisas.bsky.social · 02/06/2025One day before Bike To School Day and we are all riding on our own bikes to school! 160
L @lisas.bsky.social · 01/06/2025Zero pictures of the cargo bike meet up today but I did snap this one on our way home! So many cargo bike people came out today! #yycbike 3362
L @lisas.bsky.social · 31/05/2025This kid right here went from refusing to sit on her own bike last weekend to riding ~20km today!!!! #proudmamamoments 3151
L @lisas.bsky.social · 22/05/2025Random mom “You shouldn’t let your children climb the trees because it makes other kids want to climb them” Me “No” 260
L @lisas.bsky.social · 20/05/2025Got to love how the government is determining if young children are eligible for school buses based on driving distance rather than walking distance. #kidsdontdrive 030
L @lisas.bsky.social · 09/05/2025WFH means I don’t really have to #biketoworkdayyyc but we took a little detour into downtown to enjoy the pancakes this morning! 020
L @lisas.bsky.social · 16/04/20256 got a new bike a couple of weeks ago that she absolutely loves. Here is telling the kid on the playground all the facts about her new bike from @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social like how it is 12 inches (it is 20) and it has fraternal shifting (internal) and how sometimes she can bike 1,000,000 m/hr 5241
L @lisas.bsky.social · 05/04/2025It’s still going. People are still angry at the reply alls. The subject lines have changed so many times. 000
