Hey chicago bicyclists! I have a friend who is moving to albany park neighborhood of chicago, near the end of the brown line and wants to start biking for daily errands, haven't biked in a while. What advice would you give? They want to stay anonymous at this time.

What's most remarkable about this news story from Los Angeles isn't the circumstances, sadly, but news coverage that is sympathetic to tactical urbanism and precise in its use of language. Something is shifting public perceptions of the problem of traffic violence, and how to solve it.

over the past few years, the cook county sheriff's office has been quietly opening new offices, including a handful of stations within the city of chicago focused on retail theft and carjackings. it got me thinking: how many offices does the ccso actually have? the answer? a lot.

We are in the playoffs because I've been wearing my lucky hat. I stopped wearing it and it caused the late season slide that knocked us out of first. This is how I realized it had become lucky. I actually bought it and we were shitty for four seasons so it was unlucky for years. How could I know?

The "bike bus" idea is simple: Once a week, a group of kids and parents bike to school together. It's an idea being embraced in neighborhoods around Chicago as a way to socialize and push back against car-centric culture, parents say.

When you are a single-issue organization, you are at risk of excluding other people in your perceived coalition who have other, but related, interests (public transportation, biking, the diverse coalition of environmentalism) that are related to housing. Clearly what happened here.
