It's November 6, it was a couple of degrees above 0 on my way to work today, and I have footage on my bike camera of a whole lotta people on #ottbike getting around this morning. Each year there are more and more of us, riding later and later into the season <3

Today's race was a good one weather-wise - the totally sketchy combo of mud and snow made for some wild corners. (Pic credit: Kiera FitzGerald) #ottbike

Oh hey #ottbike, just a reminder: if you're riding EB on Scott from Churchill to about Smirle today, there's lots of signage and associated debris, as well as a hubcap somewhere, in the bike lane. Plus the gravel at Winona. The snow is gonna be an issue.

If anyone’s looking for some stylish crates for their bike, these crates from Hay look pretty nice. No idea how sturdy they are though. #bikesky #ottbike

✨New Post✨ What's it *really* like to bike through Orléans? It's... an experience. I break down the anatomy of a typical suburban ride—the good, the bad, and the infrastructure that just... ends. A two-wheeled urbanism ride-along. #KidicalMass #Ottawa #ottbike

Hey Ontario! You've heard of the disastrous Ford bill to destroy tenant rights, but did you know that Omnibus Bill 60 would entirely wipe out the ability of cities to right-size their roads by reducing lanes _at all_, not even just for bike lanes?

It looks like work at Fisher and McCooey in #Ottawa might soon be finished. I suspect the wait was for this lump of concrete that has to go in the hole on Fisher that has been sitting there for months. Finally, bc not a single driver respects the yellow ‘single lane file’ signs.

Hey, #ottbike, is this a stop sign camera or a traffic counter or what? On the south side of the Carleton U ped bridge, at the Rideau River MUP

Fine late fall morning for an #ottbike ride up to the Fire Tower.

Really had to watch for the rocks in some of the more leaf covered areas, but the curly bars and chubby tires were still the perfect setup.

If only there was some way for this driver to have realized they had already gone the wrong way on a one way street (they went north on O'Connor at Strathcona). And then tried to continue the wrong way (north) at Pretoria.

I am a bit confused. Question for @en.ottawa.ca Thanks for installing the new sign on the exit of the #bike path (MUP) onto the road yesterday. Does this sign mean that cars stopped at the stop sign opposite (pictured) have the right-of-way over pedestrians exiting the bike path?

Got an email back! Looks like it will be updated shortly and the data set will include 2017/01/01 - 2024/12/31. #ottBike #ottWalk #ottRoll
I’m sure others have asked them but I just sent an email to @en.ottawa.ca asking why the Open Portal data for collisions hasn’t been updated since 2022. A lot of CARnage has happened since then. How can we give suggestions/feedback on plans without data? How can we verify #Vision20PercentLess?

A great (but rare) example of a construction detour directly alongside the worksite, making it logical for all ages to follow. 🚧

The MUP was torn up and with heavy dump truck traffic in the area, the pylons and construction tape help define a safer area for 🧑‍🦽🚶‍♀️🚲.
