after unimaginable loss looking to help create safe streets
had a great @chicagocta.bsky.social today

Lawrence bus 3 min wait to Western bus 4 min wait. made it to the office area in a little more than a bike ride.

when Transit works it’s amazing

seeing a police officer writing a ticket for cars parked in the new bike lane…

good morning

it’s always nice to stop by Lily’s Rainbow Memorial garden. they have done such a nice job with the space as it changes with the season

hey #bikechi looking to get some bar mitts for my porteur handlebars.

any recommendations?

anyone think SUVs with heavy tint will get enough of a negative reputation due to their new use?

it would be ironic if this admin not only took down Tesla but also the SUV pushing Big3 due to the affiliation

i should not have to share my story for you to understand why you should not be parked in the bike lane

please just accept the request to move

such an amazing night out, ran into so many different friends walking to party, spooky sights all around, rain at the right time, and a wonderful walk home admiring the colourful halloween decorations

called my local CPS about one of their teachers who routinely ignores traffic controls in our neighbourhood

great conversation with a staffer who thanked me for the call and discussion

let’s get @chipubschools.bsky.social behind safe streets, it only serves to boost enrollment

did any of the Idaho Stop make the cut?

hoping all of you that stayed up all night are going to get a good sleep in before you get out for trick or treating with your transit bill has passed capes on

extra candy for all your hard work

just made a round of call re transit bill nonsense. why do staffers get it but their bosses don’t?

who should i call, tell me below

after seeing this endorsement I picked up two pair, one for me the other for K.

they arrived yesterday, used today… what a great addition to the helmet. not cold enough for a toque yet but toasty ears are nice.

As it gets cooler and I remember to put on more clothing for biking, may I recommend the best thing @foxyjewishmama.bsky.social has ever told me about, helmuffs. They fit right over your helmet straps to keep your ears warm and are so warm. Support the small business. www.helmufs.com

ND/FB/X - catalytic converter, hit&run, camera ticket, bike lane, bus lanes, parking, traffic, pot holes, insurance, gas, car jacking, bikes, pedestrians, commutes, metered space, density!!!

tell me again what this QOL drivers are trying to protect is, all I see online is how terrible it is
October 28, 2025 at 1:13 PM
was just thinking of this. auto centric policies are very expensive and getting more so

between the expense of roads, vehicles, insurance, gas, police, fire, rescue, mental/physical health etc…

do robots dream of car free streets

a raised intersection at Clark and Leland would have been a great addition to the latest safe streets initiative

drivers are allergic to that stop sign where a bar/restaurant, daycare, and popular park meet

in the beginning micro choices are big steps

three years in and i still have to work hard to complete things. weird that because i never got to complete my ride to drop off, day, and life with Lily finishing things is difficult

refilling the filing cabinet after it is upset is a real project
You do not have to "believe in yourself" to do the trauma recovery stuff. Don't think you have to completely overhaul how you think & feel about yourself to take baby steps toward realistic self-care & safety today.

Just start where you are. Focus on the next micro choice.

hello @robertloerzel.bsky.social our local historian. walking around Ravenswood area one cannot be oblivious to the number of churches in our area, including some recently demolished or soon to be.

why do we have so many churches?

or am i imagining things…

loads of folks walking to transit with signs.

UPN RWood saw a lot heading to the city and on the NB side folks going to Evanston and Wilmette
October 18, 2025 at 3:52 PM
this is a conversation that should be had with the CFD and ER personal. the trauma suffered by the brave folks that come to our aid after a crash is real.

i support my Fire Department by advocating for safer streets, no one should have to see what we saw
October 17, 2025 at 5:41 PM
when do the Big3 put out pressers stating that they support immigrants and reform of our immigration system

serious black eye to see American SUVs being used in such a manor demonstrating just how dangerous their vehicles can be in the wrong hands

traveling last week had a Lyft driver who had not owned a car but had a friend tell him how much he was making, guy bought a car, does not make anywhere near what his buddy told him…

now stuck with a car note
