"'In an ideal world, we would have bike lanes with a physical barrier everywhere. That’s what’s needed. The reason more people don’t bike is primarily the fear of cars, and you can’t blame them.'”

—Bicycling Monterey’s founder, in cover story, "Can advocates make local streets safer for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers?"

Monterey Regional KMRY → San Francisco International KSFO

Because it was so much fun the day before, this time I went again with the Pilatus PC-12. From the Pacific coast, I headed inland, flying along the western edge of the Central Valley. On the way to San Francisco, I passed over the Bay and the Salt Ponds, which still shimmer in stunning colors.

Vandenberg Space Force Base KVBG → Monterey Regional KMRY

Once again with an aircraft I haven’t flown before. With its 1,200 HP, the Pilatus PC-12NGX is definitively a class of its own. An exciting aircraft.

The update to #BigSur worked out well. #Openpatcher got me up to Sequoia, but oh boy is it chugging.

So I am going to downgrade to my third favorite #MacOS and my favorite “modern” MacOS: #Monterey

"One of those major safety issues includes a light that will be removed. A #roundabout will be in its place. They're also improving the connection between the #bike and #pedestrian #bridge and the path to North #MontereyCounty High School.” https://www.ksbw.com/article/castroville-boulevard-interchange-highway-156/65926911

Speaking of North County bike and pedestrian bridges, ICYMI, here’s a favorite that also serves North #Monterey County High School students, and others. https://bikemonterey.org/completion-castroville-bicycle-and-pedestrian-overcrossing.html

We biked to #Seaside last eve, passing through North Monterey. En route, we used alternate route (not Monterey’s North Fremont Street center bike lanes). On return trip, we used that center bikeway, to see if the most recent collision’s debris, which we reported 9/9 and again 9/19, had been cleaned up yet. Verdict: mostly (use caution to avoid tire puncture).

We salute the work of @LukeBornheimer and others for Better Valencia, #SanFrancisco
ICYMI, #Monterey’s center bike lane was first such design in California. SF followed suit—and regretted it. “SFMTA is planning to replace the Valencia Street center bikeway with curbside bike lanes as soon as January.” https://sfba.social/@LukeBornheimer/113115688061923975 Follow Luke for details and more sustainable transportation efforts.

Thank you, Monterey PD!

"September 13, 2024, at 5:47 P.M., #Monterey #Police Officers responded
to a report of a stolen electric #scooter. The scooter had a #GPS device attached to
it and the reporting party believed it was located in a wooded area near Mark
Thomas Drive and Josselyn Canyon Road. Monterey Officers responded to the scene and located a campsite in the wooded area. Inside the campsite, Officers found the stolen scooter, a stolen electric
#bicycle, controlled substances, #drug paraphernalia and a loaded .45 caliber
#handgun.” https://files.monterey.gov/News-Releases/2024/24_0916-Firearm-Arrest.pdf

Friday is farmers market day at Del Monte Center, Monterey. Don’t know who rode this bike to DMC today, just appreciate that they did. Related tips in “Bike to Farmers Markets” https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/food-for-all and in “Shopping by Bike”: https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/unique-attractions

DMC is in city of Monterey. The city’s bike-aware leaders, e.g., Mayor Tyller Williamson and Council Member Gino Garcia (whose day job is working for Ecology Action of Santa Cruz / Lets Modo) may be unaware that we formerly had in that Shopping section of the Tips guide a detailed map listing all Del Monte Center bike rack locations. Their ED at that time himself biked to work! Why is that detailed map no longer in our guide? Because DMC 🔥REMOVED those bike racks! 😭#NotProgress #GoingBackward #CarbonEmissions #TrafficCongestion #Monterey #ActOnClimate #ClimateCrisis #transportation
