I like bicycles and coffee. Active transportation policy nerd mostly in a California context. Movement by bike, on foot, on buses and trains. I've been around. Old GenX guy who respects pronouns. He / him.

I'm sorry, I just have to pop off again on that NYT e-bike piece.
The fatality rate for e-bike injuries is 11%?? You're saying that one out of every 9 times someone hurts themselves on an e-bike, they die?
That is just so mind-blowingly incorrect, I don't know where to start.

An excellent story on the Bike Bus phenomenon via @wweek.com featuring @coachbalto.bsky.social and including a cameo by two podcasters on book tour.

The bike bus concept is gaining in popularity, and Portland is now home to about 25 bike buses. This is largely thanks to Sam Balto.

Jeff tells me USGS webcams are now available! This one points at the Guadalupe River just upstream of Hwy 101. That's the San Jose Airport long term parking structure. The bike path is down by the river. Link --> apps.usgs.gov/hivis/camera...
I like that UGSG has camera archives now ... it is a little easier to judge than depth or flow stats.

Professional photojournalist Jakub "Kuba" Mosur shoots all around the world for AP, Reuters, etc. I'm shooting a cycling event in SF with my tiny MFT Olympus and he asks if I'm a professional, ha ha. See a sample of his work jakubmosur.photoshelter.com/index/G0000r...
He also does fun Strava Art.

Black American soldiers literally dug these WWII graves. Traumatic. To acknowledge that fact at a cemetery they helped construct is something the Heritage Foundation cannot accept. As Veterans Day approaches, never forget that this country both compels and disrespects Black military service. Always.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️
