Proving (again) that #Trump is #AntiSolarPunk ! Wow!!!
Do #DEI #BikePaths Exist? The Trump Administration Says Yes.
The administration has revoked funding for #BikePaths, and encouraged removing some. A cycling advocate said it is playing on the idea of “that dork on a bike.”

Aug. 31, 2026Excerpt: "As it is, many American communities, regardless of politics, have embraced #BikeFriendly policies, on the grounds that bikes are good for the planet, for the body, and address congestion by taking cars off the road.
"Often inspired by bike-friendly European cities like Copenhagen and Amsterdam, the moves are a major shift in the way American communities approach transportation planning.
"There are now 4,400 directional miles of protected bike lanes today, up from 108 directional miles in 2000, according to #PeopleForBikes , an industry trade association and advocacy group. (Directional miles are miles that can be traveled in one direction; with a two-way bike lane one mile long counting as two directional miles.)
"The group notes that more than 25,000 miles of #RailBeds have been converted to bike-friendly trails, double what it was two decades ago.
"But the Trump administration is trying to put the brakes on the trend.
In #NashvilleTN, the future of an ambitious series of bike lanes, called the #EastNashvilleSpokes project, is up in the air after the Trump administration froze a $9.3 million grant, prompting a court battle that remains unresolved."

Went riding with the big boys again.
Destination was #Taktak #Antipolo #Rizal https://maps.app.goo.gl/fC6GYj5yZLyER4Cz5
but I decided I'd only ride up to #Cainta https://maps.app.goo.gl/S5PvSw77jiYk32rc7 and they were fine with that.They went flying 🚴🚴💨 😳 as usual, with a couple of guys going at a chill pace so I don't get left behind all by myself. Really grateful for that. 🙏
I rode as far as #Mambugan. I stopped when I saw #McDonalds. 🤪 https://maps.app.goo.gl/KaJKvSSzjyVS2EwW8
