Check out @shifter.info's video on choosing a cargo e-bike. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIhb... Plus look at what I'll do for the sake of research.
Another very fun Sunday morning joining the #yycbike #kidicalmass ride. Thanks to @whoalansi.bsky.social for organizing and @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social for the cookies!
Thanks to some bike holder hooks from Etsy, we can now easily carry 2 kids and 2 kids' bikes on the cargo bike. #yycbike #yegbike #cargobike
Back from a lovely backcountry trip! I forgot how refreshing no cell service for a few days feels. Plus the mountains were beautiful, the weather was perfect, and we saw a bear (from a very safe distance).
It's not often I get to ride in the bucket of the cargo bike. So fun! #cargobike
Teaching the babies about the important things in life! 🚲 (And now whenever I read this book, I think of this @urbancyclinginstitute.org post on how mobility is represented in children’s books and why that matters urbancyclinginstitute.substack.com/p/rethinking... 🤓)
Ah! So good to be back on downhill skis after a big injury last season. Is Norquay always this quiet? We skied on Sunday and waited in next to no lines.
Yes! We all need more joy! I biked @annaliseak.bsky.social around this summer and our expressions were similar.
Oh Calgary. I naively thought the old Sunnyside Greenhouses sign would stay up with the new development -- a nice nod to what once stood there. You know, local history. But when I drove by today, I noticed the sign is gone. Anyone have a better photo of it? This is from Google Maps #yyc
Alberta: You have to pay $100 for a COVID-19 vaccine. Also Alberta: We can't collect payment in person.
Banff has a very fun new playground. Also no swings in rutting season -- only in Banff. #GoOutside #ExploreAlberta
Baby's first Kidical Mass ride yesterday. Fun morning, exciting to see so many families out biking together. Thanks for organizing @whoalansi.bsky.social! #yycbike
It's not just kids who like riding in the cargo bike. @annaliseak.bsky.social approves! #yycbike
Come on a hike with us! This is one of my favourite trails in Kananaskis: gooutside.substack.com/p/come-on-a-... #yyc #GoOutside
Happy #worldbicycleday! Bikes are the best. My current favourite bike thing is these two holding hands on our rides.
Fun cargo bike meetup, plus finally got to see @klaszus.bsky.social's pop-up press in action. Many thanks to @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social #yycbike #cargobike
Giant constructions site at SAIT, and the best viewing spot we could find was from the C-Train platform. This kid has questions for you, SAIT.
Baby's first Highwood Pass! All credit goes to Grandpa towing the trailer with his e-bike.
