Edmonton. I like bikes, guitars and CFL football.
Ouch. Thanks for sharing. This makes my decision about which bike to use today a lot easier.

Ok I’m kind of done talking to you anyway. Just wanted to point out that more people than think are choosing to use transit. Not just the working poor or students. Now you want to rant about brt. Fine. Have a good one.

So you should advocate for more and better transit.

At least you want to like it. It’s a start.

Dude that’s totally wrong. I live in Edmonton, gen x, not a student, I do own a car but still choose to use transit because it’s by far the best way to commute to downtown. At least from the northeast anyway. I also like the bike lanes. Are you for real thinking everyone is like you?

Another chunk of the manning/fort road trail between 144 avenue to 50th street is paved, except for the intersections. They also have most of the sidewalks from Manning to Clairview station ripped out and gravel down for a new shared trail. Lots of new curb ramps under construction too.

Why are you pushing so hard for a shorter field? Do you like all the changes or just that one?

I don’t have an issue with the rental ones because they have speed governing, but I often see private ones going 50-60 km/hr. Last year I saw a woman on an electric unicycle just flying down the trail between commonwealth and downtown, with no helmet. People are getting hurt on these things.

I find little bar end mirrors to be pretty much useless. I have to shoulder check anyway.

Ok, that’s good. Cartmell put out some pamphlet about a “blue ribbon panel” to review everything and also create dashboards to track everything. I’m like F off, they want to bring in a bunch of cronies who do nothing and make some charts. Great plan./s I’d be reluctant to vote for him.

If the bikelanes go nowhere then the roads they are next to must also go nowhere. But if they’re talking about bike lanes that just suddenly end, yes those ones go nowhere. I didn’t watch the debate. Did any candidate express support for bike infrastructure?

Just trying to highlight a few good things I see, but there’s still a long way to go before I would declare Northeast YEG an active transportation paradise. If I posted missing links, inadequate, hostile and dangerous infrastructure around here there would be a lot more in my feed, unfortunately.

Okay well now we have a reason for the city to amend that. There something wrong. Close it down until the building maintenance people get it under control. 33 is hot yoga temperature.

That guy in the blue shirt is a crybaby whiner. I swear he almost cried in the video posted by global. 5 seconds away from bawling and snot bubbles. Absolutely pathetic.
