There’s no easy answer if you use your bike for transportation and the air is toxic from wildfire smoke, but here are some ideas youtu.be/btz1vDl36H8

huge thanks to @brettbergie.bsky.social for organizing and leading the ride, and @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social for borrowing the Brompton bikes :D

I had such an amazing time riding a Brompton for the first time. It's such a light bike, I didn't get as tired as when I did this loop with my bike. Thank you everyone for the amazing ride, conversations, and company 🚲

@stefannibrasil.me told you that you can read a book while being shuttled around in a bakfiets 😜 #yycbike

The problem with riding bikes is that a lot of the time when you’re not riding bikes, you’re just thinking, “Fuck, I’d rather be riding bikes than the bullshit that I’m currently doing.”

Unexpected side effects of getting a shady rider visor is that people get interested in it and starts talking with me about it 🥰 "what a nice bike visor you have" "a helmet and a hat? so smart" thanks @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social for selling them 🤠🪖

I know, I would have published a trilogy by now if I complained about all of them :( I get extra alert near these bad ones but it's still frustrating to see decisions made by someone affecting people's lives like this.

Stefanni Brasil @stefannibrasil.me · 23/06/2026
The guy who said the bike lanes are dangerous downtown wasn't entirely wrong. But it's not a bike lane's fault, it's all the biases involved in designing streets for people that make anything other than roads for cars dignified for people. I also hate how downtown is just a storage dump for cars.

Stefanni Brasil @stefannibrasil.me · 23/06/2026
Who in their good minds would say that it's a good idea for cars to turn left/right when there are people walking, wheeling on that intersection? How is this the reality we live in? I never assume people driving honestly consider a person's life to be worth slowing down, but this has to stop.

Stefanni Brasil @stefannibrasil.me · 23/06/2026
Rang my bell aggressively for a man driving a car (aka legalized killing machines) to STOP on 5th St SW before turning left on 10 Ave SW, as there was a cyclist going straight. A guy said "these bike lanes are so dangerous". But it's not true. IT'S F** CARS TURNING WHEN PEOPLE ARE CROSSING.

I love cycling, but my least favourite thing is seeing wildlife dead on the roads killed by people driving cars (aka legal/normalized killing machines) :(

Cute interactions I've had cycling on Crescent Heights: - a guy passes me on his bike and yells "Yay, bikes!" back to me - three little girls walking after school say hi to me when I pass by them 🧡
