Simple way to avoid car companies bricking your vehicle by installing a forced software update: make sure your vehicle is a bicycle.

The future is great, huh?

One of the few things Toronto got right is Bike Share Toronto. It has grown from 80 stations in 2011 to almost 1000, while this July, August, and September each saw more than one million rides! Now if only infrastructure could keep up ... #BikeTO #TOpoli #VisionZero www.thestar.com/news/gta/how...
How Bike Share went from death’s door to one of Toronto’s fastest-growing ways to travel
How self-cleaning toilets, the pandemic and bike lanes made Toronto Bike Share a staple of the city, and how Doug Ford’s battle against bike lanes will shape its future.

Time to start planning your bike lights for the darker months. Have fun with it. You'd be amazed at how much joy it brings to your ride.

So much fun riding around St Paul tonight, dumb dangerous concrete bollards back blocking the Shepard bike path not withstanding.

"Though robotaxis have notched up impressive growth, they look ploddingly pedestrian compared with far zippier pedal-powered rivals. [Waymo] proudly proclaims that its cars do around 250k trips a week. Yet in NYC alone that number of trips is made every three days using the city’s bikeshare scheme."

Wow! Montreal’s public bike share system (BIXI) was featured in the TIME Best Inventions Hall of Fame for 2008, not far from the iPhone and Google Street View.

While not the very first bike sharing system, it was one of the earliest and it was the model for many other systems, from NYC to London.
