TIL SW Prime accepts the Go-To card. It doesn’t embed a transfer, unfortunately, so you’ll still need to request a paper transfer.

Btw, Richard Anderson was gorgeous today. Wish I were here a couple weeks earlier for the leaves.

San Francisco Muni retired its last Breda light rail train this evening.

Thank you for the high school wanderings, the frustrating treks to college classes, as well as all the times your pilot decided to override the door interlock and drive it with the doors still open.

And it’s SNOWING! Umm, I’ve never biked with my fair weather bike in the snow before so here’s hoping I don’t fall 😬

Also, do I know anyone who's looking for freelance opportunities? DM me. I have a lead.

Happy “Goggles on your Face While Bicycling” day for those who celebrate

Please don’t forget to vote today.

Kinda excited to be able to take state-mandated time off to vote for the first time in my life today ☺️

Oh Saint Paul, I love you, but I don’t know if I could ever live here because my community is mostly over south

Update: Minneapolis Police arrested a man in his 50s yesterday for taking my bike. He was arraigned earlier this afternoon.

Unfortunately, the bike was no longer in his possession when he was arrested. He told MPD he ditched it somewhere over south, but it's also possible he sold it.
Update: Bike has not pinged.

Thinking of doing a search for it. I'm keeping tabs on FB Marketplace and Craigslist. Where else should I look?
Can y’all please be on the lookout for my bike? Last seen in Elliot Park. It is a black Biria bike with red pedals and stickers of local news orgs on the bottom tube. It also has a Brooks saddle and adapters for Wolf Tooth pogies on the handlebars.

May I say something now that I'm not writing much about transportation these days?

With the debut of Route 36 and the E Line in Dec (to replace the 6C and 6E), I am lamenting the loss of the Trolley Stop.

TIL there are Bird scooters in Winona

Wow. Has it really been a decade since my awkward self stepped foot in the Twin Cities, only to decide I didn’t like it? (Then decided to move here seven months later for an internship?)

Happy anniversary?

No Kings, downtown Minneapolis. I’d say about 10k with more coming.

Is that the old Minnesota flag I see at the Paul concert?

Willow River State Park, not for the faint of heart. Dense, forested campsite offered lots of privacy and seclusion, but the shoulders were so narrow to bike on! 😬

Ok. I need to replenish stock but given my ethical considerations, I’m not sure if I should go to Target, Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, or Costco.

Update: I was going to go to this, but found out the service only runs within Carver County on weekends so you can’t really transfer to anything on Sundays unless it’s a SW shuttle.
Carver County, in conjunction with the Met Council, will expand Transit Link service to operate on weekends starting 9/6.

Looks like one will now be able to go to Baylor for their star parties, camp overnight, and come back the next day.

TIL there is a group of runners in San Francisco who are trying to run all the Muni routes in order. Wow.

Late notice but I’m here until 330 or so if anyone wants to stop by and say hi, ask Qs about my work, or buy something with a credit card.
Starting today and continuing thru September, my photography will be exhibited at May Day Cafe in Powderhorn. Please check it out, and maybe get a notecard? Thank you so much Shae for coordinating!
