Hawrelak Park reopened today, now featuring a network of paved trails. They were clear and mostly ice-free before the snow started. It's great to have this important #yegbike link to the west end back.

Avid cyclist can't believe your kid biking to school needs bike lanes, "they probably can't even climb Tourmalet."

Our condolences to the family. Please remember: 1. The sidewalk that a driveway crosses is not car space, it’s walking space a car may only cross when safe. 2. Parking lots are for walking. You only put your car there to get out and walk the rest of the way. apple.news/AmSX2PeNKTtK...

A small load of pallets for the clubhouse. Oh and Marigold Partners has been horribly lazy about monitoring the storm drains. I saw a young pedestrian choose between walking 3 sides of the intersection and walking into traffic because of this puddle. Now more or less drained.

The popsicle test. Have we built communities that allow 10-12 year olds to start on those building blocks of independence. Or did we only build a clutch of bedrooms then wait til the kid is 16 and roll the dice with the keys to the minivan?

Sure, he’s building brutal prison camps for the American government to disappear people to without trial, openly revelling in defying the American constitutional order. But even the president of El Salvador knows the solution to traffic is better transit.

Nayib Bukele, president of El Salvador:

To Western nations:

You can’t build, or even fix, anything on top of societal disorder.

Take traffic, for example. The most logical solution is public transport. But without order, anyone who can afford a car will avoid it, simply because they don’t feel safe using it.

In El Salvador, we lack a lot of things, but we have achieved societal order.

You, on the other hand, have almost everything, but you're quickly losing your societal order.

You can now predict where things are heading in the near future.

There’s still time to save your nations, but not much.

You can drive for 9 minutes and curse at traffic or ride for 11 minutes and enjoy it. I learned long ago that bikes are primarily used for stopping.
