@ascentale @bikenite A8: the shock for me this week was waking up to a car parked in my driveway. And not a car belonging to a neighbour. Almost blocking my driveway, and dumped partly on the lawn.

I suspect someone nearby who knows that I don't own a car.

I'm boggling at the rudeness and have no idea who owns it. But it's gone now and hopefully won't be back.

#BikeNite A8:
Probably the most interesting (to me) thing I saw while riding was the Dan Fogelberg memorial along the Rock Island Greenway near the Illinois River in Peoria Illinois on Monday. He was born in Peoria. The memorial was three boulders with song lyrics etched into them. After seeing it, I had to play my two favorite Dan Fogelberg albums, Souvenirs and The Innocent Age.

@ascentale @bikenite A8 I saw a car stop so far past the stop sign that the front bumper was over where the line of a bike lane would be if the side street I was on had bike lanes.

Fortunately the cars behind me were paying attention to I had room to avoid becoming an early-morning T-bone steak.

@bikenite A8. Someone I know put this reflective decal on their rear fender. I don’t get it and will have to ask them about it. But it’s weird, unique, and funny!

@ai6yr @bikenite Good thing you didn't have a long tail cargo bike?

[ascentale@sfba.social]

@MartyCormack @bikenite I always appreciate the helmet bikestand.

@ascentale @bikenite A8: we had “Walk Bike & Roll” to school day on Wed. Lots of parents are involved, and the kiddos have a blast! One of my favorite events each year.

@ascentale @bikenite I saw this last week. ^_^

@ajft @ascentale @bikenite I can't even begin to express how much I despise this behavior.

I maintain a stock of stickers for "suggestive dissuasion" purposes

@ascentale @bikenite #BikeNite A8: While cycling I saw a billboard advertisement for a new EV model emphasizing that it uses steer-by-wire technology. Didn't know that this is legal now. And for me, such a "feature" is rather scary and it would be a reason to _not_ buy that car. (Albeit modern cars have already way to many "features" which are a no-go for me anyways, so this just adds up.)

@ascentale @bikenite A8. My spouse finished a master’s degree this year & graduation was today, so we biked to the ceremony in style this morning. #BikeNite

@ascentale @bikenite #BikeNite A8: not from this week, but I took this picture of a nice rainy bike commute on the dry leg of it, the water shuttle

@ascentale @bikenite A8: Southwest coast of Sado Island.

@bikenite A8-2. I also saw this on the way home this week. A parent, riding with kid on the back of an Xtracycle long-tail, with an electric conversion. The kid is carrying a cello(?) as a backpack.
