Bikemap has added some neat features recently. Here’s from my normal route to work, most of which is on a mixed use path and then some neighborhood roads. They also have a heatmap touting option similar to Strava.

I like Bikemap for their routing options to weigh preferences for speed/directness versus comfort. Otherwise, I like the Strava heatmap to see what routes others take. Not the end all, but useful for identifying popular routes.

The good news is a 3.5 miles stretch of the bike path in the first photo is scheduled to have concrete curbs added this summer. Fingers crossed that ends up happening!

I have a pair of waterproof jeans from Duer. They look like regular black denim, which I appreciate.

Better use than the average pickup gets in a year.

Totally agree with this, but I also think there’s a lack of acknowledgement of the contribution of terrible road design to how easy/encouraged terrible driving behaviors are. Better design could make it a lot harder to be reckless.
