  1. Phase 3 of the Shelbourne Street Improvement Project is complete! New raised cycle tracks, protected bike lanes & protected intersections, with connections to other protected bike lanes. When combining both the Saanich and Victoria sections, that's a 4.5 km AAA route. #yyjbike #saanich #victoriabc #biketooter

  2. A few photos from Tuesday’s Snowbirds performance in Victoria, BC. Thanks to Capital Bike and the volunteers for running the bike valet. It was such a nice experience to be able to quickly and safely ride to a busy event using protected bike lanes and multi-use pathways. Afterwards we parked at the bike valet on Pandora Ave and had dinner downtown. What a show and what a city!🚲✈️ #yyjbike #victoriabc #snowbirds #biketooter

  3. The Cook Street upgrades in Victoria are progressing well. The upgrades include a new 2 km protected bike lane, new crosswalks, accessibility improvements, and intersection upgrades. This will also connect to a raised cycle track in Saanich. Details below. #yyjbike

  7. Construction to extend the Blanshard Street protected bike lane from Caledonia Ave to Kings Road is coming along nicely in Victoria, BC. This will also connect two existing AAA routes. #yyjbike #victoriabc

    Here's a map from the City: victoria.ca/city-government/pr

  8. Galloping Goose and Lochside trails are about to get wider! Construction starts this summer/fall. More about the project, to be discussed at our CRD meeting tomorrow: davethompsonvictoria.ca/regional-tra.... #yyj #safety #yyjbike

  9. Saanich is seeking feedback on the "Wallace drive project". This is the section of Wallace btw Willis Point Rd (near where the Interurban Rail trail ends) & the border of Central Saanich. Survey is open until June 12th. Let's show support to calm this route! hello.saanich.ca/en/projects/... #yyjbike

  10. I *FINALLY* finished the tune-up on my #bike - was down to just the cassette replacement when I absolutely got stuck and broke my whip. I had no desire to get to the point of shredding the flesh off my knuckles and making expensive sounds, and the kind folk at my local shop were able to help using the bench vise. So happy to be back on two wheels. I was nothing but smiles on my ride this morning. #cycling #bicycle #bikecommuting #yyj #yyjbike

  11. 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

  12. If you haven’t had a chance to ride across the new Galloping Goose bridge in Colwood yet, here are a few photos. Before this upgrade, the walk‑and‑roll route meant crossing Island Hwy at Wale Rd. #yyjbike #colwoodbc

  13. Hmm no cars in the general purpose lanes #yyj #yyjbike

  14. 2/x The focus was on families and children (youngest to ride own bike to party was 6yo), and there were SO many cargo bikes. #yyj #yyjbike

  15. So nice to see families with small children out celebrating a climate action success today in #VictoriaBC. 9th Birthday party for Pandora bike and roll lanes. 1 of X. #yyj #yyjbike

  17. 🎉🚲 The City of Victoria’s first protected bike lane turns 9 years old tomorrow (May 3rd)! Come out for the birthday party at 1pm in Centennial Square. #yyjbike #victoriabc

  18. Extreme close pass by a #VictoriaTaxi on Gorge Road West near Tillicum. Thankfully they weren't also speeding which is rare on Gorge Road. My camera was dead but I got the license plate and reported it to the Saanich Police. Probably won't amount to anything but it at least adds to statistics.

  19. Current status: watching a bicycle infrastructure ribbon cutting in Colwood. #yyj #yyjbike #BikeTooter #victoriaBC

  20. We took a ride along the new Tolmie Avenue protected bike lane in Victoria, BC with cherry blossoms in bloom.

    This links the Galloping Goose Regional Trail with the Graham-Jackson bicycle boulevard and connects residential streets with a commercial area. #yyjbike #biketooter #victoriabc #bikelanes

  21. The car brains on reddit /r/VictoriaBC/ don't seem to know how to do an internet search. Claiming mobility scooters "travel like 3-5km/h" etc. First full size mobility scooter I clicked on has top speed of 18km/h. People on acoustic bikes commonly go 10-15km/h. Research is good! #yyj #yyjbike

  22. A new protected bike lane on Dallas Road in Victoria, BC! This video also shows how to connect to the Ross Bay Seawall and Clover Point for great views of the Salish Sea and Olympic Mountains. #yyjbike #biketooter #victoriabc #bikelanes

  23. Two examples of good design and one example of bad design: Wheel/curb stops and bollards help prevent vehicle overhang and keep pathways safe and clear. The last photo shows what happens when they’re missing. #SafeStreets #biketooter #yyjbike #victoriabc #AccessibleStreets

  24. Lots of debris in the bike lane on Blanchard after the storm last night. #yyjbike #bikeyyj #entitledDrivers #victoriabc
