Rarely do I ever ride my acoustic road bike to Mass so of course I got a flat. Shoutout to adult me who had all the supplies necessary for a quick fix and back on the road I went.

Not helpful for you, but discovering the call screening feature on my cell has been life changing, between that and DND, I have brought so much peace into my life 🧘🏽

Fascinating history of the historical (and prominent) role of bikes in Illinois, and Chicago. Interesting class and gender lenses, too! Thx, @atalliance.bsky.social

Such a beautiful day, decided to tow my ride home from the bike shop. Finally getting my fork looked at, I think it’s been seized since I bought this cargo bike.

We did the math and we put 40k miles on it since we moved to Chicago 6yrs ago which comes out to about 6,500 miles per year, almost exclusively driving out of town to visit the in-laws.

Growing up running the streets of Detroit and riding bikes all hours of the night all over Chicago, didn’t event flinch taking transit at night to MLK/Crenshaw. LA transit took care of us. πŸ₯°
