What's the best route to get the Mercedes Benz bike valet from the eeast side. We were planning to hit the memorial drive bike lane to downtown but I'm not quite sure where to go after that.
MLK?
Funny enough I actually did chat with someone who said he worked at GDOT on their safe streets program while I was there last night.
No idea if he had anything to do with it π
My wife and I were at Jinya across the street after the show while people were still rolling out and the staff were so confused looking out the window and trying to figure out what was going on lol

What is βthe E-Bike Effect?β
βThose who bought e-bikes increased their average daily bicycle use from 2.1km (1.3 miles) to 9.2km (5.7 miles), a 340% increase. The e-bike share of all their transportation increased dramatically too; from 17% to 49%.β
Fewer car trips.

Can we pls swap this for a federal e-bike/e-cargo bike rebate
More like their hearts are in the wrong place and they're bad at politics.
Why not a bill to extend the EV credits? Why not a bill to subsidize ebikes? Why not a bill to give extra funding to transit?
My guess is before anyone could approve anyone's code but now it's going to be more strict and require a senior to review every pull request.
The actual impact of this would be determined by their team structure and how many seniors they have relative to mid-level and juniors
So far its alright. I scheduled it to come at 8:20 to take me to Edgewood Candler park station and it showed up at 8:29 which seems reasonable.
Unfortunately, they have not fixed the issue in which other passengers talk on the phone loudly π

SCOOP β Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

This is (among the reasons) why I don't trust and don't use any social media with an algorithmic feed e.g. Facebook, Tiktok, Instagram, etc.
The people in control of the algorithm have too much influence

Good news! Despite pushback from people in the neighborhood, a Kirkwood church's effort to use its property for 47 units of affordable housing for seniors was approved last night by Atlanta's Zoning Review Board!
The proposal goes next to City Council.
