A #Bicycling #Monterey supporter wrote to us today, regarding #MontereyCounty's "#CarWeek" (Aug 11-20):
"My car week tradition for the last few years has been to commit to biking to work each day. Since moving late last year, my bike commute grew from 10 to 15 miles each way, and I'm sad to say I hadn't tried it since the move. I gave it a shot this week and am happy to report that it is still totally doable! I didn't realize how much I had missed commuting by bike!"

@rafaelmaxlove We're in that camp of people who appreciate letter writing and find receiving such postal mail a treat! As we mention in FAQ #3 https://bikemonterey.org/about/financial-donations, that includes we're happy to send acknowledgements via postal mail—as we just did this morning to thank @mtheriaultsf for his thoughtful July 17 contribution. Here's a related photo from our Contact, etc. page.

#Sprawl like #parking requires multiple abodes to #house #people and #cars! "About 70% of San Mateo officers live outside the Peninsula and the average round trip #commute time is two hours and 17 minutes."

Is there *ANY* #TTC streetcar running East-West uninterrupted this summer? (IE. without need of a shuttle bus?) Feels like every line is impacted somehow. :headasplode: #torontotransitcommission #TorontoTransit #Transit #streetcar #QueenStreet #KingStreet #collegestreet #toronto #traffic #Commute

@jace Some of our family members live in #Alberta, and we enjoy checking #mstdnCA regularly.
Yesterday our family in #Edmonton showed us (via video chat) their #multimodal trail. Dad or Mom are able to take the kids to their elementary #school via #bicycle, #scooter, #skate, or simply #walk—no need to drive. It makes for a fun 15-minute #commute between home and school, with just one intersection where they have to stop and look for cars.
The entire family loves it, including being closer to nature, watching changes of the seasons, getting exercise, and simply en - #joy - ing their commute!
Yay, for #urban planners knowing how vital it is to have #infrastructure allowing people to get about by #active #transportation.

時間になってもバスが来なくて、代車が2階建バスだった。
Commute bus was late but substitute one was a double-decker

Spread joy. (& please don't block the box)
I'm also noticing active transpo commuters are easily out numbering motorists on Slow Page. They have enough dedicated lanes on arterials to begin with.

There are 2 very different issues here. Let's not conflate.
1. Should #eBikes--or any vehicle for that matter--be permitted to travel in excess of 25km/h in dense urban spaces or those shared with walkers?
And
2. Should #speedpedelecs be legal?
If you are an #urbanist who rarely ventures outside your city as a utility #cyclist, than you probably have a different view to one who wants to utility cycle or #commute on long open roads.
Now lets try to keep the #ebikerevolution on course and stay on the same side against the real problems: bad drivers [and cyclists] and excessively heavy and fossil fuelled vehicles.

If I ever take up a regular #commute again, it could be because I got tired of the #cat telling me she's starving all day.
She's very sweet, but she loves to eat, which means we can't leave food out for her to eat her fill, so I feed her a series of small meals during the day, and I am constantly reminded that it MUST be time to eat.
@pezmico @davidslack In the before times, a bunch of us would get up at 4:30 and #commute to work... getting to the South Bay around #sunrise. Best part of the day, without a doubt.
