  1. Classic #NYC dysfunction:

    CM Brooks-Powers complains about DOT not getting the bike lanes and bus lanes done while at the same time blocking those very projects.

  2. Wherever @citibike adds bike docks I am going to bike to them. Thanks @NYCDOT and @Citibike for extending the system to #JacksonHeights #EastElmhurst & #LGA ! #bikenyc #bikenewyork

  3. Huh. Are the PBLs on Northern Blvd/Broadway any good? Normally I'd take #QueensBlvdPBL/Skillman to get to #LIC, but just noticed that google maps suggests a slightly longer (by .1mi) but less hilly route. I know portions of broadway are still shitty (but then again so are portions of queens blvd).

  4. I never did an #introduction back in November, let's go:

    Hi, I'm Anthony Michael Morena. I'm a freelance editor, writer, and author of THE VOYAGER RECORD: A TRANSMISSION.

    I moved back to NYC last year after 13 years in Tel Aviv. I post about living in #Queens, trying not to die while I #BikeNYC, and #litworldproblems, a big one being the lack of literary community here to talk about #litmags #CNF #hybridwriting #submissions.

    I'm also an avid #MagicTheGathering player but see my alt @MTG3K.

  5. Work laptop updating ... here are more figures.

    Next time your #NYC Community Board obsesses about bike/ebike annoyances instead of car dangers, show them this plot. Car/truck violence yields 100x injuries of bikes and e-bikes combined.
    No one cares about enforcing red light violations postcovid (georgefloyd?). Interesting b/c #NYCDOT thinks leading pedestrian intervals are a traffic calming measure. #NYPD #Bronx #WashingtonHeights #Inwood #Manhattan #BikeNYC #UrbanistNYC #Urbanist #CB12MN

  10. It was a very rainy weekend indeed here in #NYC #Manhattan #Bronx #CB12MN.

    I was bored...

    And so, I am continuing my efficacy of #NYPD enforcement of moving violations for #TrafficViolence investigation.
    Very basic for now, but I have a scatterplot.

    Going to build up these pandas arrays (add in camera enforcement, temperature, precipitation, ???) and see what falls out of a random forest.

    My thoughts: traffic violence low correlation to moving violation enforcement

    You?

  11. I got excited thinking that this would be a nice N-S and E-W network of protected bike lanes in a place that didn't have any before, but then I saw that the E-W route was a "conventional bike lane".

    It's 2023, drivers park on every available surface in #NYC, and we're installing brand new paint-only bike lanes while we also have a legal mandate to install #PBLs. Such 💩.

  15. Sent to #NYCDOT DOT-590725-C6J7
    Opposite Billings Lawn somewhat north of Inspiration Point on the Empire State Trail roughly at GPS coordinates 40°51'36.3"N 73°56'07.6"W or 40.860078, -73.935440 there is a terribly narrow pinch point. 9A has three driving lanes AND immense breakdown lane. This construction is jeopardizing the safety of the bicyclists who have to share a two way path next to a light pole.

  18. There's been consideration to opening one or both of the currently closed tunnels beneath (178th, 179th street) that serviced the before the was built as tunnels. Would connect the east side greenway running along the Harlem River with the west side greenway at the on the Hudson River.

    Do a light show too?

  20. planted as bulbs late last fall are up on Southbound at 100th and along at 100th. Distinctly, planted them last fall along the highway because within a few years that outer lane will become a lane. Each year I will extend the planting. Good rich soil. Bicyclists move slow enough to appreciate it.

  22. Not sure I agree with the logic of cramming more bikes into the 43rd Street & 10th Ave dock in #hellskitchen when there are often no bikes to be found in #sugarhill #westharlem #citibike #bikenyc

  26. #CargoBikes carrying cargo bikes (a #Cetma #Margo carrying a larger Cetma #Largo). Featuring the Kosic.. Kozi.. *cuts & pastes from Maps* #KosciuszkoBridge path, which is a really nice bike/ped path. #BikeNYC #BikeTooter #EBike #NYC

  27. I can definitely feel my sphincter unclench when I get to the part of the #QueensBlvdPBL that has #JerseyBarriers (ie, is actually #protected instead of just some #CarTickleStix).

  28. A few weeks ago I wandered into a #BikeDelivery wonderland. I didn't have time to stop to chat with them for more info, but this block in midtown #Manhattan had tons of people using #URB-E trailers for last-mile #delivery by #bike.

    There was a mix of different bikes, but most looked like rebranded Terns. Not the best video, but I counted at least 20 bikes + trailers with different trailer setups (some large boxes, others w/ plastic tote containers, etc).
