Minneapolitan since 2019. Working on fully assimilating by cargo biking with 2 kids and playing beer league hockey.

22.10.2025 18:11 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0One of the main reasons my wife and I moved to Minneapolis 6 years ago was so we could maximize our opportunities to ice skate outdoors.
Every cold day like this is one day closer to the best time of the year in Minneapolis.
Night biking on Bryant!

17.10.2025 22:21 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I pay about $650 a year for my 2018 Prius. Once a year, I panic that the premium is so low because I dont have enough coverage, but it always seems reasonable when I double-check. I feel like some people could really benefit from shopping around more.

17.10.2025 17:31 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Cashman's got labor, Shaffer with the C Suite, but who's got middle management's back? Who's with the men who've been promoted to their level of incompetence already and barely afford to send their 3 kids to Benilde-St Margaret's?
17.10.2025 03:19 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Notice that the curb barrier also pinches a little at the entrance. Another technique that the city is trying to prevent cars from entering the bike lane

16.10.2025 17:55 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0I'm not going to die by this table. I thought it was interesting that the discussion that was raised earlier in the week regarding the culture of walking in MSP was backed by some quantitative measure.
16.10.2025 17:53 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0They ranked the largest 100 metro areas by population and for some reason put the top 50 in a table and the bottom 50 in a different table.
16.10.2025 17:50 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0You have to be able to park at the Lake Harriet Bandshell in order to walk the 3 miles around the lake!
16.10.2025 17:40 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I agree - seems like a cultural issue. Whats interesting is that Minneapolis is going all in on infrastructure (which I love) to achieve the goals in the Transportation Action Plan. But maybe the city should also be doing more to fund programs which help guide cultural shifts (like Pedal Power).

A bunch of interesting reports. Just need to give them an email.
Exhausting.
16.10.2025 15:24 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0When I saw this conversation first going on here, I was frustrated because the discussion was focused on anecdotal experiences. So I looked up some data and found that, in 2022, MSP is among the lowest of all major metro areas in average annual daily walking trips:

16.10.2025 13:34 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0May we look upon this moment in the future and say, "This was the beginning of the end for Southwest Transit."
14.10.2025 21:09 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0How rough are the surfaces you ride on? Standard asphalt roads with occasional rough spots or worse?
13.10.2025 22:30 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I've been considering a suspension seat post, but it seems like a lot of money for something that I've not been 100% sure is necessary. I wish there was a way to try these things out.

12.10.2025 18:14 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0This past winter, my son got really into riding the bus to daycare. It turned out that the fastest/most consistent way to do it was to do the 46 to the D line and then walk 3/4 mile through Powderhorn Park with a folding stroller. That 15 min walk was always one of my favorite parts of the day.
