#bikeeverywhere — Public Fediverse posts

Rereading blog posts on a western WA bike tour we took in 2018 makes me want to put in more bike mileage to get ready to tour again.

If you have links to stories about good tours in WA or OR I'd love to get them. I also have Cycling Sojourner guides to WA + OR, a bit dated now on some info but still helpful on routes.

Overview + links to individual trip posts: https://bikestylelife.com/2018/06/08/bike-touring-northwest-washington-state-how-our-bike-ferry-train-loop-worked-out/

I don't have Brendan Leonard's drawing skills but I now want to recreate my life in bicycles. https://semi-rad.com/2020/10/life-in-12-bicycles/

@ascentale @bikenite Thanks for sharing my MLK question on #BikeNite! I'm not as active here as in the dead-to-me birdspace so I don't often jump on in real time. Glad to have bike community active here though.

I did a triathlon today! Well, my version of one anyway. https://bikestylelife.com/2023/06/11/choose-your-own-adventure-creating-your-version-of-an-athlon/

As we leave July, my look back a year ago at some favorite posts from this month over the years https://biketoworkbarb.blogspot.com/2024/07/reruns-july-posts-worth-revisiting.html. Surprise! I write a lot about riding my bike.

What a great problem to have: a warm, muggy Monday afternoon and all, I mean ALL, bike rack parking spots at the library are taken. #cycling #bike #BikeEveryWhere #library

It is #bikeEverywhereMonth and also well into #spring. I’ve just been to the farmer’s market with my #cargobike. Are you trying to use your bicycle more? What obstacles do you see? What concerns so you have that stop you from using a bicycle (more)? #bikeEverywhere #CarDependency

I ran an errand with the Road Runner. It is not the most practical bicycle for errands but I did not need to carry much (a backpack was sufficient) and it sure is fast. A large part of the route is using a multi use trail. It’s nice to see so many blooming trees. #bicycle #bikeEverywhere #spring

#WeekWithoutDriving thoughts: I'm fortunate to have enough money to have an e-bike for heavy hauling when needed, and to flatten hills. Biking is helping me through some knee pain right now too (easier than walking!). Biking husband + friends = social travel bonus.

#WeekWithoutDriving thoughts: I've already arranged my life to have transportation freedom without a car. When I need to be a nondriver someday I won't miss a beat. My dad lost his independence when he had to stop driving because he couldn't consider/use other modes. Not me!

#WeekWithoutDriving Day 5: End of the day, rode down to the beginning hula hoop class I'm taking through our parks/rec. Husband rode down to join me for the swing dance class we're taking together that meets shortly after I'm done hooping. We rode home together in cool darkness, happy to have dry roads after last night's steady rain. Wonderful end to the week.

#WeekWithoutDriving Day 4: Biked to my dentist, then to the office (2nd day in a row of long in-person meetings; kind of a treat, TBH). End of the day, my best friend who lives near me and also rides for transportation suggested we go out for snacks and chat. We rode home together at sunset. Delightful, and that last bit of social travel isn't something you can do when you drive alone.

#WeekWithoutDriving Day 3: Biked 8.5 mi for an all-day meeting. Delighted to see another bike parked out front when I arrived. Later I'll ride to Olympia Center for a class, then home.

Again had bike lanes for nearly 100% of my route. Thank you City of Olympia! And Tumwater too.

#WeekWithoutDriving Day 1: Biked to downtown Olympia for a meeting, then later I'll ride to HQ for work, to Olympia Center for a class, and home.

Edited to add: Had bike lanes for the vast majority of my route. Even "just paint" helps when the network is connected and drivers expect you. Yay for abundant bike racks in downtown Olympia too!

@Jennifer_Miller @ascentale @annecavicchi
I only go to the office occasionally--basically 100% WFH. When I do go I bike in everyday clothes. Started that shift a long time ago (lots of posts about it at www.BikeStyleSpokane.com) so now my wardrobe is 100% bikeable and also professional. I don't bike far/fast enough to worry about sweat (e-bike makes that even easier). Bonus: All my clothes are comfortable! #BikeNite #BikeNiteQ #BikeTooter #BikeStyle #BikeLife #BikeEverywhere

Day 30 #30DaysOfBiking: It's officially a wrap! Despite a downpour in the night and forecast for high chance of rain, I got to ride to HQ at 7:40am and back to home office at 12:30pm without putting on rain gear. Brisk breeze made me glad I was moving myself, e-bike saved me from being late for an 8:00 a.m. meeting with that little extra boost when I needed it.
