"Motorists can become 'desensitized' to stop signs."
I'm pretty damn tired of treating drivers like delicate little flowers who cannot possibly be asked to do basic shit to keep others safe.

At a different intersection, where a driver hit & injured an 11-year-old in a marked crosswalk, and the community wants an all-way stop.
MCDOT says the all-way stop wouldn't be safe because drivers wouldn't stop at the stop sign.🤷

Owámniyomni Okhódayapi just announced the Dakota-led design for the restoration of five acres at Owámniyomni (St. Anthony Falls), adjacent to the Upper Lock on the Mississippi River in Minneapolis. Project construction is targeted to begin in spring 2026. Very exciting!

Someone on the Minneapolis subreddit caught Waymos being delivered. We need the City Council need to ban the use of driverless cars. The technology isn't there. Our city cannot be a testing ground for 1.5 ton autonomous projectiles.

Thanks to everyone who joined our little impromptu hang out with @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social .
I only took this one photo early on. 😆
Our group was like 3x this size later, bringing great business to the cafe! We should do this more often at other bikeway-adjacent businesses.

I believe it was @gravelinfluencer.bsky.social who convinced me that “Share the Road” signs are read by bicyclists as “cars should not kill me” and by drivers as “bicycles should never slow me down.”

Therefore be it resolved, five years of planning and engagement fist fights are too much, and we should just follow city policy that calls for building these kinds of streets.

I'm sad.
Sad for all our unhoused neighbors. Sad about all our inaccessible fence-blocked streets. Sad about Roof Depot. Sad about the 3rd precinct.
Was really hoping for a little change.

You can’t have a moment like this when your kid is strapped into a car seat behind you.
Riding together means we actually get to talk, laugh, and share the city as we move through it.

A driver launched metal debris across the sidewalk while destroying this piece of city infrastructure — but sure, tell me again about that one time you saw a bicyclist roll a stop sign. 🙄
I really hope no one was standing there waiting to cross.

In Minnesota, drivers are required to stop for pedestrians at BOTH marked and unmarked crosswalks. Here I am at one of my least favorite streets, 50th, at one of my least favorite intersections, 50th and Aldrich. Let's see how long it takes for someone to follow the law.

Hennepin Avenue ribbon cutting was today after being closed in some form since April 2024. In my opinion, this bike lane is up there at the top of or near the top of the list of the most important bike lanes the city has built in the last ten years...
