  1. Testing visibility in late afternoon light with my spoke light "wheels o' flame" turned on. They're much more impressive when it's darker and I'm riding a bit faster; then my wheels genuinely look as if they're lighted all the way around. Fun effect.

  2. @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

  3. I'm here to state that if you have a rough fingernail that you really need to deal with because you really really can't cope with that snag, and if you're traveling with a cyclist who has a patch kit, you have access to sandpaper and you will be okay. #fingernails #BikeTooter #BikeStyle #manicure

    Edited to add link to an old blog post that will tell you more about my fingernail issues than you want to know. biketoworkbarb.blogspot.com/20

  4. @ellie @tosia The skirts on bikes comment took me right back to a moment on my bike years ago that I wrote about on my bikey blog bikestylespokane.com/2012/03/2. For a long time I sought the perfect pants for biking (I won't link to the entire *week* of blog posts I wrote on this topic...) but realized I feel far more free and comfortable in a skirt. For me just has to be the right length and not too flowy so it doesn't catch in the spokes. I don't pedal toward crash potential.

  5. Non-scientific data collection: biking 3.3 miles mostly without any shoulder, 9 of 10 drivers moved over so that at least one set of tires was across the center line. 10th one moved over more than 3 feet. Thanks, Olympia WA drivers, for real.
    For what it's worth, May have triggered the Mary Poppins effect since I'm wearing a blue flowered dress and riding an upright bike with a turquoise bag on the side. #WomenBike #SkirtBike #BikeStyle #BikeEverywhere #BikeOLY #BikeEverywhere #BikeTooter

  10. Typical bike style dilemma: Participating in a bike event where I'll be on stage do I bring Person with a Title energy to my outfit or Riding a Bike on a Saturday to the Farmers Market energy? To be fair, those two aren't that far apart in my closet. #BikeStyle #BikingInStyle #BikeLove #BikeLife #BicyclesChangeLives #BikeOLY #FarmersMarket #EarthDay #EarthDayMarketRide

  11. Updated my list of bike-related hashtags yet again. Added a new category for #BikeStyle tags, #Bikenomics for the work by Elly Blue and others to highlight economic benefits of bicycling, and more. This list is going to keep growing! #cycling #BikeTooter #BikeEverywhere #BikeMonth #bicycle #bikes #velo #BiciBus #SafeRoutes #infrastructure #transportation #BikeArt bikestylespokane.com/2023/04/0
