People say BlueSky is an echo chamber but we have road cyclists, gravel cyclists, mountain bikers, single speeders, fixie riders, cargo bike riders, e-bike riders, hybrid riders, recumbent riders, bikepackers, randonneurs, and I'm sure we even have a few unicyclists among us
I had big plans for all of the MCBL stuff I'd get done over our winter hibernation.
None of that happened bc my neighbors needed me more.
I'm starting to carve out more time to get the MCBL back up & running. I'm SO excited to share more about what we've got in store this year.
Stay tuned!

I’d vote for climate change. Fascism will reward the oil companies and that alone will just drive in the proverbial nail in the coffin.
Larger impacts in CC. Fascism can be beaten back - quicker
Yeah. I mean, props to your group for even having that discussion.
10 years ago (before Trump was running at least) - it wasn’t really on my radar at all for American Fascism. It makes sense now but, just incomprehensible then.
I’ve been more than aware of climate change in different ways for 20
Damn. That’s a question.

AOC on Randy Fine: “This is genuinely one of the most disgusting statements I have ever seen issued by an American official — It should not stop shocking us that the Republican Party openly embraces this — Fine should be censured & stripped of committees. To ignore this is to accept & normalize it”
Brah. I’d destroy that. Congrats

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

This is Minneapolis:
In normal times, our kids like to count the # of dogs they see when we travel places. Now they count ICE OUT signs.
On our short trip to dinner on Lake St. tonight they counted over 70.

This is Minneapolis:
I’m headed to D.C. for work today.
On the way to the airport I coordinate rides for 2 neighbors who need urgent medical care but can’t leave their home w/o a white neighbor to look out for them.
I’m free to travel while my BIPOC neighbors shelter in place.
This is not ok.

Thousands of families are at risk of eviction bc they haven't been able to work in weeks & don't have $ for rent.
