This is a wonderful takedown of the argument that cyclists don't pay taxes by the mayor of Quebec City. It's in French, but subtitled.

If you need a brick to be seen, visibility isn't the problem.

To me, this is sportsmanship at its finest. Here's hoping they both finish, along with with Ihor Verys and others.

Cyclist gets killed by driver mounting sidewalk. Province puts up fence to stop motorists from mounting sidewalk and hitting cyclists. Now somehow it is the fence that is the problem? WTF! Am I missing something?

I missed this when she posted it. She was the Trump appointed Ambassador to Denmark. This has to be one of the most idiotic and uninformed posts by a diplomat in a long time...

Iβve seen this before. In Denmark, middle class people canβt afford to drive a car. They have a bike and take the train for long trips. My embassy driver would bike an hour in the snow to get to work. Thatβs the future team Biden wants for Americans. Is this what you want?

A good article about a great little market. I didn't stop often, but I enjoyed it when I did. Great spot to meet up with other cyclists, as it's on the Union/Adanac bike way.

How ironic that Bill 23 is announced 23 years after I first presented to the province these and many other changes to the act. Glad to see this finally moving forward. Thank @Rob_Fleming. I hope this is the first of many changes to BC's antiquated MVA.

Today, we introduced Bill 23 that will require vehicles to observe minimum passing and following distances, helping to keep pedestrians and cyclists feel safer on the roads.

This video camera study showed that less than 5% of people on bikes break traffic laws while riding, yet 66% of people do so when driving. And if you REALLY want even MORE bike-riders to obey laws, build more protected bike infrastructure. Via @carltonreid forbes.com/sites/carltonreidβ¦
