Secure bike storage is a critical enabler to ensure more people can use bikes (esp e-bikes) as transportation, including those who may not have a garage or other space to store a bike at their home. I’m excited to see this pilot move forward. m.startribune.com/worried-ab…

He was a kind, wonderful guy. His death is a tragedy.
I believe the victim, Michael Brasel, was the head coach for Roseville Area Youth Hockey, and it *looks* like he found a burglar in his car, confronted him and was shot dead. Details still a bit squishy. GoFundMe raised $$$ very fast. He was popular. twincities.com/2023/05/06/st…

Great stories, worth a read.
When you think of the stereotypical forester or logger, you likely think of a man, but women have been making strides in the industry in recent years. Read about some of their stories: northernwoodlands.org/articl…

OK #coopext folks, how would you advise a new #extension educator to spend $15K in startup funds? Obvs context dependent (and rare, in my experience!), but looking for good ideas. @drdavecoyle @Leslie_Boby @UCsierraforest
