I got skis today from the Como Park ski sale.
I’d be curious about people‘s experiences bringing them on buses. I am also going to see how many drivers are going to deny my boarding today.

It’s been a very long time since I saw a family carry groceries on the bus 🥲
This actually might be my first time in all my years living here that I’ve actually seen a family carry groceries on the bus.

I should not have to look behind my back while crossing the street to ensure I won’t be run over.

Gmail on Firefox is annoying. It keeps telling me it saved my draft, but it keeps disappearing when I close the window I'm writing the message in.
I guess I have to repeatedly clear my cache? I guess this is good practice?

TIL SW Prime accepts the Go-To card. It doesn’t embed a transfer, unfortunately, so you’ll still need to request a paper transfer.
Btw, Richard Anderson was gorgeous today. Wish I were here a couple weeks earlier for the leaves.

San Francisco Muni retired its last Breda light rail train this evening.
Thank you for the high school wanderings, the frustrating treks to college classes, as well as all the times your pilot decided to override the door interlock and drive it with the doors still open.

Update: Minneapolis Police arrested a man in his 50s yesterday for taking my bike. He was arraigned earlier this afternoon.
Unfortunately, the bike was no longer in his possession when he was arrested. He told MPD he ditched it somewhere over south, but it's also possible he sold it.

Update: Bike has not pinged.
Thinking of doing a search for it. I'm keeping tabs on FB Marketplace and Craigslist. Where else should I look?

Can y’all please be on the lookout for my bike? Last seen in Elliot Park. It is a black Biria bike with red pedals and stickers of local news orgs on the bottom tube. It also has a Brooks saddle and adapters for Wolf Tooth pogies on the handlebars.

May I say something now that I'm not writing much about transportation these days?
With the debut of Route 36 and the E Line in Dec (to replace the 6C and 6E), I am lamenting the loss of the Trolley Stop.

Wow. Has it really been a decade since my awkward self stepped foot in the Twin Cities, only to decide I didn’t like it? (Then decided to move here seven months later for an internship?)
Happy anniversary?
