  1. I would love to have a stack of cards I can hand out to e-curious folk, with a list of reliable-and-affordable #ebike lines on one side and reputable e-bike financing options on the other.

    Just because some bikes are expensive doesn't mean they all are!

  2. chat, #bikesky, I am not sure how to google for this, so I will ask here: are there standards for bike frame mounts? like the lil bosses that pepper a fancier frame for places to put random cages, etc...? does "four pack" mean anything?

  3. With today being so nice out, I biked almost 78 kilometres in Mississauga to check out the Nine Creeks Trail, the new QEW Credit River bridge, and the new Jim Tovey Conservation Area. You can read more on my blog. #BikeTO #BikeMississauga #BikeSky www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/06/nine...

  4. For those who bike in Oakville, there will be a public consultation for Lakeshore Road East from Allan Street to Winston Churchill Boulevard on Tuesday, June 23 (6 - 8 PM) at Oakville Town Hall.

  5. Last month, I finished reading @[email protected]'s "If You Want to Win, You've Got to Fight" which is a short but effective advocacy manual for walking, cycling & transit supporters. A full review is now up on my blog. #BikeTO #BikeSky #WalkTO #TTC www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/06/revi...

  6. Here's a nice story from Andrew (a.k.a. Cardiac Cyclist) about how one of his videos from last fall inspired a fellow cyclist to improve the West Luther Trailway west of Orangeville. Wished GO Transit would run buses there on weekends. #BikeTO #CycleON #BikeSky www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E6l...

  8. Further to the blog post I put up earlier this week, here's a companion video of the Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail I uploaded to YouTube using a GoPro on loan. #BikeTO #BikeSky youtu.be/g8kg_UWX5Ws

  9. On Monday, I biked from Barrie to Collingwood including along the recently extended rail trail which now starts at Angus. While I plan to do a video compilation soon, my blog post reviewing the trail is now up for your viewing pleasure. #BikeTO #BikeSky www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/05/barr...

  10. Survived riding the Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail this afternoon in the 30'C heat. While the rail trail is pretty good, the New Lowell to Stayner stretch in particular was brutal with the loose gravel, but had some fish and chips with beer in the end. #BikeTO #BikeSky www.strava.com/activities/1...

  11. Happy Victoria Day! On the GO Train to Barrie to ride the new Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail! Hope you are able to get out and ride today wherever you are! #BikeTO #BikeSky

  12. Started reading "If You Want to Win, You've Got to Fight" by @[email protected] this evening. So far, it gives a reminder that we cannot avoid politics if we are to change transportation outcomes. Hope to do a review when I am done. #BikeTO #BikeSky

  13. Check out phase 1 of the Esquimalt Road protected bike lane - concrete curbs, bollards, crossrides, treed medians, and connections to other bike routes. A great AAA upgrade on a main street. Nice work Esquimalt!🚲 #Esquimalt #yyjbike #bikesky

  14. I cycle through this intersection about 4 times a week, but the last few weeks it has been blocked almost every time, so I put together my clips to show how silly it is. Apologies for the quality. #OttBike #BikeSky

  15. The Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail extension from Stayner to Angus (at 5th Line) officially opened today! Can't wait to ride it later this year! 🚲🥳 #BikeSky #ONpoli www.ctvnews.ca/barrie/artic...

  16. hey #seattle #bikesky there used to be a pretty good map of parking garages downtown with bike racks -- i can't find it for the life of me. HELP?

  17. While I doubt Doug Ford would listen, Beth Kaplan's column in @[email protected] makes a good point on the need for Ontario to learn from Paris about tackling gridlock. It involves transit, bikes, and green spaces. NOT cars. #BikeTO #BikeSky #WalkTO #TTC #TOpoli #ONpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

  18. Of the situations I regularly encounter on my bike commute, this one is easily the scariest -- even though "nothing happened." Reader, a lot is happening. @[email protected] #BikeSky #VisionMillion

  19. While I'm that keen on Jason's personality, there's one quote from this latest Not Just Bikes clip which nails it. "If oil is so important, and it is, why the fuck do we let people set it on fire in their cars?" 🤣🚶🚲🚇🚗 #BikeTO #BikeSky #WalkTO #TTC #TOpoli #UrbanTruth www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXNL...

  20. While some protected intersections do exist in Toronto, we still have a long way to go to catch up to Ottawa! 😉 #BikeTO #ottbike #BikeSky

  21. I tried to explain to somebody about why sometimes people on bikes do things drivers might not understand in order to ensure our own survival and was informed that we are not actually entitled to survival. Which felt kind of aggressive. #BikeSky

  22. Curious about cargo bikes or biking with kids? Seasoned pro interested in meeting bike friends? Come to our cargo bike meetup on April 18 @ Withrow Park! #BikeTO #CarryShitOlympics #BikeSky www.eventbrite.com/e/cargo-bike...

  23. This morning, I took my gravel bike for its first ride of 2026 to check out some of the construction along the East Don Trail and the Lower Don Trail. If you are able to go for a ride this afternoon, do it since it's beautiful out! #BikeTO #BikeSky #TOpoli www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/04/apri...

  24. After having to wait on hold for a few months, I finally got to check out a copy of Life After Cars by @[email protected] from my local library! Look forward to reading it. #BikeTO #BikeSky #WalkTO #TTC #TOpoli

  25. Another douchebag with cyclist derangement syndrome using his car as a lethal weapon is taken off the road for a bit. Sadly there are thousands more like Samir Weiss who need to spend a year only traveling by bike. #cycling #bikesky www.theautopian.com/bmw-driver-a...
