All opinions are my own.
These would be just east of WeHo, but would speed up transit + improve reliability on Metro route 2 to/from #WeHo during rush hour similar to the recent La Brea lanes. I’m excited to see more of these going in & could not be more supportive. 🚌💨🤩

Flying out of Burbank for the first time in awhile today. Nice to see the progress on the replacement terminal. I’ll miss the short walk from the Metrolink station, but thankful there still won’t be jet bridges so we’ll keep the novelty of walking up to the plane. 🛫🚞 🤓

End of an era! Stopped by the City maintenance yard to pick up the last sign for a speed limit above 30 mph in WeHo today! Thinking I’ll put this up at my desk and use it as a zoom background… 🧐

Not sure when google maps added these transit direction Home Screen and Dynamic Island widgets but they’re pretty cool! 🚇 🗺️🤩

Our quest to ride all the long distance Amtraks continues with the Empire Builder from Chicago to Seattle! 🚞

Rode the last of the interurbans while we were in Chicago! The US used to have 1,500 interurban lines between cities and towns covering 16,000 miles of track and only this 90 mile line in Indiana and Illinois remains operating more like commuter rail these days.🚃🤓

Finally biked the lakefront trail to Hollywood Beach! As an Angeleno, lake beaches are confusing but the trail was great!

Can any Chicago folk weigh in on the SSL website and google disagreeing on eastbound departure times? 10:30 & 11:45 departures don’t seem to exist in google maps? Always wanted to take the South Shore Line (the last interurban!) and have a friend in Indiana we’re debating getting coffee with Monday

@ladotofficial.bsky.social testing out upgraded protected bike lane barriers around the corner from us. Concrete is so much more protective than flimsy plastic bollards or paint. Take their survey and tell them these are great and we need them citywide here: form.typeform.com/to/mKQsn7LQ?...

Denali National Park has a pretty cool ‘lil bus system dating back to the 70’s. It’s less pleasant in the rain though… 😅🚌🏔️

Highly encourage any WeHo or nearby residents to come to this community meeting on Tuesday! We'll be sharing the latest on the City's first protected bike lanes and other safety improvements. 🚲📆✌🏻

Another CicLAvia in the bag! Great (as always) but wish these were every Sunday… 🚲✨🥰

Update: the new fare gates were mysteriously open on my way home?!
July 29, 2025 at 1:59 AM
New fare gates are up at Vermont/Santa Monica. It seems like they are set to require tap out which was a surprise. Still saw plenty of people use the emergency exits so unclear what the benefit of these will be on reducing fare evasion if that’s their purpose...

New LAX Metro Transit Center looking great!

Checking out the updated transit connections to LAX this morning! Signage has definitely improved on the Metro C Like (green) since I rode it last!

Proud of this team! 🤓✨

Had a lovely time on the @amtrak.com Coast Starlight on our way to the bay for AIDS Lifecycle today! 🌊 🚂 🤩

Lightning in a Bottle was incredible as always. Love these humans! 🪩✨🎶

Excited to ride in the final (& my 1st) AIDS Lifecycle all 545 miles from SF to LA next week. In this final stretch (+Pride!), I’m just shy of my $4k fundraising goal. Can you chip in to help close the gap & support the LA LGBT Center + SF AIDS Foundation? giving.aidslifecycle.org/index.cfm?fu...

Update: I got a new boi on the way home with the wrong destination on the header sign but it still had the CRRD manufacturer branding in the ad panels so wondering if she might be a recent delivery and not fully set up yet?
May 21, 2025 at 1:16 AM
Was excited for a new subway train yesterday but she turned out to be an old Breda painted with a yellow snoot to match the new bois. This morning’s Pride train did spark joy though! 🚇🏳️‍🌈✨

Not great…

Checked out LA’s newest bike path today. Despite a $143 million price tag and endless delays, the “rail to rail” trail along Slauson somehow manages to end two blocks short of both the A and K line stations on either end despite fenced off empty lots of former ROW between it and said stations… 🫣🙄🤦🏼‍♂️
