Kinda forgot to post for awhile.. I work for a school district, so every summer I do a big cycling trip. This year I did a solo tour from Zurich to Copenhagen to check out some of the famous cycling infrastructure I’ve wanted to see for years. City recaps are on IG reels, drop your questions!

Never forget, when you’re being asked to prove that safe bike-lanes or pedestrian crossings across unsafe conditions are ‘needed,’ it's hard to justify a bridge by the number of people swimming across a raging river.

African American inventor Isaac R. Johnson patented the folding bicycle frame in 1899, "so that it can be compactly stored -- as, for example, in trunks or compartments, or other small places, or conveniently carried, as in elevators, cars, or the like." 🎉February is Black American History Month🎉
Grainy, black and white photo of a person in a suit, white shirt and tie with a mustache. Several sources say this is black American inventor Isaac R. Johnson, from Wisconsin, born in the middle of the 19th century before the Civil War. Johnson also invented turn signals for cars and a kind of folding fire escape.United State Patent Office, Bicycle Frame Patent No. 634,823 Figure 1. showing the bicycle frame, and signatures.

“Cycling isn’t safe”
Cycling is not an intrinsically dangerous mode of transport.Danger comes mostly in the form of motor vehicles, particularly those travelling at higher speeds, and those of larger mass. That is why it ...

To be silent while witnessing oppression is to side with the oppressor. To side with the oppressor is cowardice.

Thanks! I volunteer with a local nonprofit that advocates for safer infrastructure for active transportation - we started holding community rides each month to explore different routes around town, and they’ve been a hit! On Sunday we explore local civil rights history POI in honor of MLK weekend.
