12 days of travel, 4 countries, 5 cities. Here's the journey map of all the Nordic public transit I rode while in Northern Europe. Unfortunately I didn't ride any transit in Rekjavik.

This is cool! But in a region like Seattle, I'm more interested in overall ridership increase. A lot of the ST ridership increase comes from KCM buses terminating at new stations.
The top five fastest growing U.S. transit agencies with 15 million to 50 million annual trips are:
1. @sound-transit.bsky.social, WA ⬆️ 21%
2. Lynx, FL ⬆️ 10%
3. CATS, NC ⬆️ 9%
4. Metra, IL ⬆️ 9%
5. @valleymetro.org, AZ ⬆️ 8%

#TransitWrapped2025 data is fall 2025 to fall 2024.

This is your reminder that FIFA is a corrupt joke of an organization.

But you can still be excited for the world cup.

Ride Link to Federal Way for opening day festivities and only managed to take pictures of wayfinding needs...

Did you know that if you don't stand up as soon as the plane lands a puppy falls into a volcano?!

Two cities, two airport trains, two twenty-minute rides in speed and comfort.

Oslo proper has a population about that of Seattle. The urban area is 1/4 the size of Seattle.
Another Oslo video. All these people are getting to their destinations without cars!

Enjoy this tram content from Oslo.

This has to be in the top ten most important things ever said about left-side political movements. YIMBY/Abundance advocates have genuinely aspired to power and to victory in California. Many of our opponents have aspired mostly to be our critics.

Seattle and Bergen are sister cities. In 1970, Seattle gifted this totem to Bergen.

You're gonna get skeets when I post them. I'm far too busy getting lost in the Nordic Christmas Wonderland to post regularly... Ha!

Copenhagen has struggled with flooding from cloud bursts. This corridor was recently depraved for water retention and filtration. Truly light-years ahead of us.

A little selection of street life from one of Copenhagen's major bike/bus/train/metro nodes. Nørrebro.
