It genuinely felt good to preorder order this book by @brooklynspoke.bsky.social and @sgoodyear.bsky.social
I look forward to their live show at Dynasty Typewriter, which incidentally is right next to MacArthur Park where the city plans to pedestrianize two blocks of Wilshire Bl to expand the park

The Dutch mindset can’t comprehend riding a cargo bike in a setting this hilly (and sunny).

In planning class at Cal (circa 2011 or 2012 I think), we learned how contentious that development was and how the developer really tried to make the building fit in. The building has lots of detail and the back changes architectural style and matches height of adjacent home.

I love my e-bike, it is a necessity to avoid sweating on my commute or when riding the hills of my neighborhood with cargo. But when I get the chance to pick up lunch or dinner in my neighborhood I prefer to use my regular bike.

Is there good shade umbrella for biking?
Some bikes have shade for passengers which is great but what about the rider?
I would love to take refuge in shade from tall buildings or trees but LA has few of either and sometimes you are stopped at a red light just baking in the sun.

It’s easy to write off Los Angeles as a car dominated wasteland, and in doing so forget about the River bike path & its river-oriented cafes/ restaurants, the transforming DTLA & its growing network of protected bike lanes and rail adjacent park space, Griffith Park & its car-free roads, and more.

With time it should get better to get around Los Angeles by bicycle. County voters passed Measure R and M to build out our rail network. City voters passed Measure HLA to build out bike lanes and bus lanes. Every time cicLAvia occurs, thousands of people come out to enjoy LA car-free. There’s hope!

No this isn’t the car-free banks of the Seine River in Paris, this is Los Angeles when the Arroyo Seco Parkway was closed to traffic for a few hours

For about 2 to 3 months in 2020, we had streets in Los Angeles that became pedestrian priority streets. People walking and biking on these “Slow Streets” outnumbered car traffic and on my local “ Slow Street” I saw more people walking and biking in 2 months than I have seen in the years since.

For anyone wondering, a good e-cargo bike can manage the steep potholed streets of Northeast LA.

My attempts to connect between Fletcher Dr and the Red Car Pedestrian Bridge in Atwater. I have yet to find the best bike route between the two points but zig-zag to avoid the surprising amount of car traffic on the local streets in this area.

Somehow when this book came out in 2019 I didn’t hear about it but I am excited to crack open this book and learn about Copenhagen’s journey on becoming bike friendly and applicable lessons locally.

On today’s Urban Arrow adventure I picked up some groceries followed by an easel from local Buy Nothing group.
As I biked home, a kid riding his scooter on the sidewalk stopped in his tracks and said “wow” when I passed by.

Unlike car traffic, I like it when I see people biking during my commute, stopped at a red light ahead of me.

It does all depend a bit on context. The Urban Arrow is heavy enough that the built-in rear wheel lock is enough for short trips or when the bike is visible. With my regular bike I will lock to an ADA parking space pole (without blocking access)

In the absence of safe, pleasant, and convenient bicycle parking (that is also accessible to cargo bikes) I am forced to take up a regular parking space with my Urban Arrow cargo bike.

When I was thinking about grad school I was eyeing UCLAs Urban Planning program, in part because of Professor Donald Shoup and his parking course. I started doing the math and worried he would retire before I could even apply. I took his class and graduated right when he “retired”. He will be missed
