Does anyone have pictures of bike lanes that have been intentionally sabotaged by unhappy residents?
For example, leaves have been raked into Delton's bike lanes, snow has been piled up in the 103 Ave temporary bike lanes, and 83 Ave has also been impacted.
Show us what you've seen, #yegbke!

Hey yeg cyclists, I bought a panier from Aliexpress and it came with a rain cover that I’ve never used. It measures roughly 40” long and 22” wide. Can anyone use this? Maybe for a bike trailer?Free.

Good bike weather this weekend. Cold but sunny and calm. Toque, neck warmer and ski gloves were required yesterday, but I made it a 25 km round trip to the Highlands neighbourhood to pick up a capo and some pepperoni. There was a detour though Rundle, Gold Bar and Capilano parks. #yegbike.

In Edmonton, we have bike lane snow-groomers, and heros who voluntarily tow them through fresh snow to help smooth other cyclists' paths. Snow-groomer gnomes, of a sort.

Bike Parking Review: MN Orchestra
The treble clef bike racks are an A+ in my book. They fit perfectly with the location, there are a handful of them, and there are plenty of places on each rack to lock, making them usable with any bike.

Something I've been thinking about a lot lately is how when a driver does something wrong, the public and media don't smear all drivers as reckless assholes. But when a cyclist — and especially an e-biker — does something wrong, all bicyclists get attacked and blamed.

Calgary’s $129M in federal housing funds ‘paused’ pending citywide rezoning status - Calgary | Globalnews.ca
Calgary city council is preparing to debate a motion that calls for the repeal of the citywide rezoning policy in December, which would require a public hearing in the spring.

I’m not quite as pessimistic as this, but I’ve seen the basic tension in different cities.
Supporting safe streets, bike lanes, transit, and quality public spaces unfortunately does *not* guarantee that you support building enough housing to make those neighbourhoods accessible to regular people.

I think I might be done with transit, urbanism & cities in general
Its basically impossible to be working class & live in a city. And there’s zero desire among any political party to change that
Truth is if urban living is an unattainable dream theres little reason to care cities & transit anymore

As Edmonton passes 32 traffic deaths, it's worth looking at the trend. At this rate, we'll hit 36, shattering the all time high.
Vision Zero says 0 traffic deaths by 2032, instead we are on track to hit 66 deaths.
Vision Zero isn't failing, it has already failed.
