The war on American people has now reached transportation. USDOT is now seeking to freeze funding on all projects that support cycling, walking, transit, rail expansion, and all projects designed to offset climate change, including EV infrastructure. Voice your concern to our elected officials now.

Word is that the cones occupying the bike lane on Oberlin Rd are due to water “ponding.” Since the city has safety concerns because of this water pooling and potential icing in some spots, they have closed the bike lane until the matter can be addressed… stay safe out there!

Got to meet with these great people about @oaksandspokes.bsky.social . If you live in Raleigh, ride bikes, scooters or hoverboards and are not connected with this organization, you need to be! They are the best and today I’m learning from them. Thanks Kuanyu & Jared! Ohh, and helmet hair is a thing!

What a time to be alive when transportation departments are running low on bike/pedestrian funding because they must make unexpected, major repairs to highways damaged by climate-fueled natural disasters, just so cars and trucks can regain access and continue to exacerbate climate change.

WHAT IF…? Raleigh’s bike lanes looked like this? Help us advocate for a budget increase for our city’s bike/ped department at any of this week’s budget sessions. More info on times and locations here: tinyurl.com/5n88azwp

“No one ever uses the bike lane…” How amazing bikes are that they provide no exhaust, no noise pollution, and take up such little space, that people still fail to notice their overwhelming existence.

Indy Week made the decision to include "Bike Lanes - Wake Co." as a nominee for their "Biggest Waste of Money" category in the annual Best of the Triangle awards. OK, sure, keep pushing the status quo and force people into unsafe situations when all we want is to bike home alive.
