Unfortunately, I did not ride the bike with studs today 🙃

While most moderately busy roads are bare, most paths/sidewalks in the shade look like this. Studs probably a good idea to stay upright. #yegbike #yeg

And not once did they ever turn their head to acknowledge anything else other than vehicles. #yeg #yegbike #banrightonred

Gotta love construction detours that put pedestrians and active transport users uncomfortably close to turning vehicles at a corner, with no barrier or anything. Of course, there's barely enough room for a single bike to wait, too. Near a major LRT station. #yegbike #yeg

Why don't I like riding on certain MUPs, you say? #yegbike

This is at least the 3rd time in the last 10 years that someone has jumped a curb and hit something in a playground zone in my SW neighbourhood. In the past it's been a fence, and a bus stop sign. Is it going to take a kid getting killed for the city to install some traffic calming? #yeg #yegbike

Would we leave a road crack that's the width of a car tire unrepaired for 1.5+ years? Sigh. #yeg #yegbike

A crisp, but beautiful day for a ride. #yegbike #yeg

I literally see shit like this on a weekly (sometimes daily) basis, and it irks me to an irrational level.

It appears that you are right. 😕 #yegbike #yeg

The usual multi-use path experience. Not even a glance to check for anything but other vehicles. #yeg #yegbike

A new section of the west-side 111 Street shared-use path is pretty much done... but crossing at 34 Avenue is still a mess. #yegbike #yeg @yegbike.bsky.social

Things you love to see. Pretty sure 80% of vehicles regularly speed through this construction zone. #yeg #yegbike

It appears that the section of Saddleback Road with a painted bike lane that people often use to shortcut between 23 Ave and 111 St in the SW is getting speed bumps installed. #yegbike #yeg

Work beginning on 100 Ave!

We both stopped at the same 4-way stop, they tried (unsuccessfully) to wave me through, then just forgot I existed? This is why I have trust issues with motorists around bike lanes. #yegbike #yeg

"Why don't cyclists use the bike lane???" #yegbike

True, I think that single-lane design that I feel comfortable riding in are the portions of 106 St that are an extension of the sidewalk (N of 76 Ave, and through Pleasantview). Not confined to hard curbs, & raised intersections at conflict points (in the newer area). Better for snow clearing, too.

The classic SUV corner cut due to shite spatial awareness. Luckily aborted or I probably would have gotten hit (the wide angle makes it seem like there's much more room here than there actually was). #yegbike

Is it too much to ask drivers not to encroach on our paint or act as if it provides some sort of invisible barrier so they don't need to provide the 1 m passing distance? And perhaps stop speeding on these types of streets (I was riding around 40kmh here). #yegbike #yeg

FYI, for those who use the 76 Ave bike lane. Hard to tell with this picture, but this section is pretty much unrideable, unless you're a small child. Opened a 311 request about a month ago but the tree is on private property, and there still doesn't look to be any attempts to prune it. #yegbike

I love getting honked at and passed at 40kmh+ in a 30kmh zone while riding at around 35kmh (in the lane to avoid a door zone). Must get in front!!!!!!!!!!!!111! #yegbike

See previous post. Exceptionally wide neighborhood roads reinforce terrible driving, change my mind. #yegbike #yeg

In case you're wondering where the city's priorities lie. The neighbourhood streets were swept three weeks ago, but this is the multiuse path nearby. #yeg #yegbike

It is really too much to ask for the city to prioritize streets with painted bike lanes for street sweeping? Still no ETA for these, and the amount of sand/gravel is enough to be hazardous. #yegbike #yeg
