Another #Gophers road game, and another poor performance in a 42-13 loss to #8 Oregon.
My takeaways include a defense that didn't force a punt against Oregon's starters, Darius Taylor's return, and tweaking roster building this offseason.

E Line opens in one month! 10-12 minute headways!
Quarterly service changes are up! Obviously the biggest change is the E line, replacing the 6 between Westgate and Southdale via France and providing a huge service boost and a modest speed increase. However, there's much more to talk about

We got a Walmart bag delivered to us by accident, but no address to know where it's supposed to go, and unable to contact Walmart without creating an account (not gonna happen), so just leaving it outside and hoping the rightful owner finds it

The New Orleans express airport bus only runs on 90 min headways, but it's packed with over 30 riders. Methinks it would warrant more frequent service

UMN homecoming parade was a ton of fun, especially for the kiddos. We may have collected enough candy to fill in the Halloween bowl

I keep saying that government is just people we pay to do stuff for us, but you can also totally just do stuff yourself. We all live here together, let’s take care of this place and each other.

New research is constantly confirming variations of the same basic fact: bicycling for transportation is an incredible way to fit a little bit of low intensity exercise into your daily routine (oh, and also to save a ton of money, and reduce carbon emissions, and improve your mental health).

A car costs over $10,000 per year to own. People could save some serious money if they choose to, but many places are designed to discourage that
