Why yes, I did just GRAMA West Jordan Police because I’m skeptical of their claims that they’re actually ticketing drivers who park in the bike lanes on 7800 South.

I was really curious how there was aerial photography of the Old Trails fire aftermath even while the fire was still burning homes. The company (Nearmap) has specially outfitted aircraft (or contracted aircraft). globe.airplanes.live?icao=a0709e&...

There’s still more debris coming down the canyon, can only imagine this gets worse. Near the top of Butterfield. Wouldn’t surprise me if there’s more washouts higher up.

I probably should have ridden the bike this morning, but sitting in the back yard with coffee was just too nice.

@opensnow.bsky.social now showing hotspots across 89, so the wind keeps pushing the Cottonwood Fire further east. Hoping that these satellite hotspots are residual heat from the fire, but seems unlikely.

The cabin I stayed in a few years ago at Crusher is most definitely gone.

The Tushar mountain range has massively burned. Eagle Point is likely gone - and likely all of the cabins around that area. Circleville and Junction are on ready status for evacuations.

Things are going great here in Utah. Better pray for rain and build more data centers, right @govcox.bsky.social?

“The fire is 566 acres and 43% contained. There's currently 184 personnel on scene. As other fires in the state have immediate needs, resources will be shared to assist in response.”

Has anyone stopped to think that maybe we misunderstood what @govcox.bsky.social was asking us to pray for?

It's new bike day! This goofy build is a response to having had my 2017 Cannondale Slate stolen a few years back. The new Lefty Oliver 2.0 was just begging to go on a metal frame, and why not try out a titanium State? Really excited to be riding SRAM XPLR 13 speed and a refreshed Lefty design.

It's not every day you get to tell at your local transit agency for screwing up their GTFS feed you're using to build an app to track all of their vehicles.

Honestly, the new Open designs are uglier than the previous versions though. I just cannot with their new headtube design. The original Open UP still wins out.
