Our latest video takes us along the South Park Street protected bike lane in Halifax, Nova Scotia. This bike lane includes one-way protected bike lanes, crosswalks with flashing lights, bike turn boxes, leading pedestrian intervals and bike racks. #BikeHfx #biketooter #Halifax

We visited Halifax and Dartmouth this summer and were impressed by electric buses, bike shares, and a downtown ferry with bike racks. We also filmed a couple bike lanes and will post the first video on Monday. #BikeHfx #biketooter #Halifax #electricbus

Yesterday night we did a Bike Party ride that was beach party themed, and we actually stopped to dance and play in the water at the beach. A couple drivers tried to ruin our fun, but we were all safe. Advantages of living within a 10 minute bike ride of the ocean. #BikeTooter #bikeHFX #Halifax

Video clips from this last Sunday's #BikeHFX #KidicalMass ride (Aug 16, 2026).
1/16
Video Description: A large group of children and adults on bicycles are riding on a residential street. The video has been taken from the perspective of someone riding along the sidewalk beside them. -

Did some recon at the Big Dartmouth Mall for #bikehfx parking today. Pretty dismal, BUT: wavy racks at the Shoppers and Winners entrances, a roomy triangles-suspended-from-a-bar rack across from the transit terminal, and a single(!) O-ring at Old Navy. Surprisingly, no bike rack at Decathlon!

Per this excellent article from @urbanismspeakeasy.com, "We don’t hold referendums on airplane safety. The same logic should apply to street design." #BikeTO #BikeSky #ottbike #VeloMTL #BikeHFX #BikeWPG #YYCbike #YEGbike #BikeYVR #VisionZero

Our local dealer for our Larry vs Harry ebullitt lets us borrow ANOTHER Larry vs Harry ebullitt while ours is in the shop, like a car dealership lets you borrow a car when yours is in the shop. It's so handy that I can continue my errands without missing a beat. #BikeTooter #BikeHFX #Halifax #cargobike

I took a naked picture with my bike. It's so freeing riding like this. #BikeTooter #BikeHFX

Today I had to lift my bike into a snowbank to park, and bike in traffic next to the inconsistently cleared protected bike lanes, which had windrows across the entrances, and somtimes a windrow right in the middle. Most drivers were great, only 1 illegally close passed me. Of course the roads have been perfectly cleared for over 24h now. They FINALLY got to the sidewalks and bus stops 12h ago. But nobody bikes in winter, so why bother making sure it's safe to do so. #BikeHFX #Halifax #BikeTooter

I'm gonna need a bigger bike, lol #BikeTooter #BikeHFX #brompton

Positive biking experiences today, writing them down so I remember better.
As I biked past a bus stop with my bakfiets to get groceries, I got applause!
I got to ride my e-brompton after riding only my bakfiets for a long time, and I had forgotten how fun it is to ride a zippy little bike
After using my brompton as a shopping cart, then unfolding it to ride home, a lady came up and said it was the neatest thing and we had a nice conversation. #BikeHFX #brompton #BikeTooter #Halifax

I was parking my bike at the library, and suddenly there were starlings on my bike before I could even lock up! I had to shoo one off the controller so I could take it off. They were very friendly and chatty. #bikeHFX #BikeTooter #Halifax

SGR/Brunswick #BikeHFX sign update! In the other direction there is no dismount sign, only a yield to ped sign. … how tall do they think cyclists are, anyway

the infamous sign… it’s just facing the wrong way, isn’t it? THIS side of the sign is the library shared space #bikehfx

#bikeHFX, at the end of a recent What on Earth podcast, they said they are working on a show about people living without owning a car or truck. They want your stories, interested in more rural places, people with young kids, or with mobility challenges. www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

hey #bikehfx, when you're riding the MUP along Barrington from the bridge, and you get to near the casino where it becomes one way the OTHER way, where are you supposed to go? i'm usually going to the waterfront anyhow so i just salmon for 100' or so but I have no idea how it's supposed to go

My kids went on their first Critical Mass (as opposed to Kidical Mass that they're used to) today. #BikeHFX #BikeTooter

Air quality warning dropped, and I was out the door as fast as I could go, onto my bike, within 20 minutes, I was on the beach. #BikeHFX #BikeTooter

Bumblebee's first Point Pleasant beach trip. Normally I'd take a loop through the park, but that's not allowed due to the woods ban right now, because the province is a tinderbox. Today the ocean is calm, but tomorrow and Saturday a hurricane is passing by, promising big waves and high winds. Tempting to go look at. I know there are people planning to surf them (not at Point Pleasant, at sandy beaches). #BikeTooter #BikeHFX

Today is the 8 year anniversary of our electric bakfiets. This is the bike that empowered us to go car free. We've rode it in 3 different cities, on opposite sides of the country. We're still using the same homemade box we built 8 years ago. It no longer fits both our kids at the same time, because they're both 8 years bigger, but it still is great for one kid at a time and/or a grocery store/Costco run. #BikeTooter #YEGBike #YYCBike #BikeHFX

New bike day!! It's name is Bumblebee after the colour and the Transformer, because it's a Transformer. It's Bumblebee's new climate focused reboot, he's no longer a Corvette, he's an electric brompton. Bike is from Halifax Cycles in Halifax. #brompton #BikeTooter #BikeHFX

Our friends with #BikeHFX are under attack again with Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston threatening to interfere if Halifax doesn't reverse its bike lane decision for Morris Street. Let's show solidarity from #BikeTO and everywhere else in #BikeSky! #nspoli #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov...
N.S. premier says he’ll be ‘fo... -
I wouldn’t have thought it possible for a politician to be more petty, ill-informed, and divisive regarding cycling than Ontario Premier Doug Ford. And yet the Nova Scotia Premier and Mayor of Halifax are determined to shift the epicentre of car-brained wedge politics to Halifax! Boys and their toys!
"Houston said he remains hopeful that ‘common sense will prevail,’ and asked council to reverse their decision by Aug. 6. If that does not happen, Houston said ‘the provincial government will be forced to act’ and use Bill 24 for the first time. The bill was passed this spring but not proclaimed, and allows the public works minister to override decisions by municipal councils related to transportation.”
— Haley Ryan, municipal affairs reporter for CBC News -
I think this is an especially important point for #bikehfx and #halisky to keep in mind, especially in light of the Premier's disingenuous hand-wringing over emergency vehicle access on Morris St.: Protected bike lanes make ALL ROAD USERS safer. That includes our precious, sacred drivers.

I guess the premier of Nova Scotia wants me to repeatedly ride my bike up and down Morris Street, during rush hour every morning, slowly, and taking the lane.
For non-Haligonian background: there are no complete east-west bike routes on the penninsula. This road is wide, flat, and barely used by cars, there are 2 other parallel car routes that are used more, there are 2 schools on this street, west half of the street already has bike lanes on it.

Every year Halifax has a mural festival, and new murals go up all over the place. The old ones generally stay up too, so every year, lots more public art, everywhere. Here's one of the new ones at my local organic grocery store. #BikeHFX #HalifaxNS

A giant, friendly dragonfly visited with me and my brompton today at the Public Gardens. #BikeTooter #BikeHFX

When your bike is so big, it takes up 2 parking spots, just like a giant truck. This is at a cafe, called the 5K cafe, which is 5km from the entrance to the Chain of Lakes trail, targeted at trail users. #BikeTooter #BikeHFX

Halifax is the 70th best city to cycle in canada (or 25th worst). I agree with this rating. #bikeTooter #BIkeHFX
