Summer Streets is NYC at its absolute BEST! Short clip from my Streetfilm showing when I diverged off the course to take a quick loop on the GWB! Detour is only 3 blocks at 179th. Smiles everywhere all day. See it ALL here: youtu.be/zPu1rTTmQ-M

"Combined weekday and weekend bicycle ridership up 96% (nearly doubled) on Washington Bridge one year after bike path opening." (!!!)

Good morning from the New Dangerous Unprotected Bedford Bike Lane, and all the cars and trucks illegally parked in it. Mayor Eric Adams will have blood on his hands for this decision, unfortunately sooner than later.

Hopefully some NYC mayoral contenders come out on Saturday. Weather prediction is the same. I’ll have camera but not making a film, just grabbing a few shots. I just changed my plans since was gonna be out of town. Now I’m riding again!!! Not missing this! It’ll be even bigger!

Restaurants are booming in the Congestion Relief Zone. According to @wsj, "Retail availability rates during the second quarter fell to 12.8%—the lowest rate since late 2014." Congestion pricing is good for business!

Today, that was more populated. Probably because it was the 2nd NYC DOT event and more people wanted to go further north! Streetsblog New York

A weird ask. But I really think that James Cameron should remake 1981’s “Galaxy of Terror”. (Yes I know he actually did it remake it kinda….as “Aliens”) #GalaxyofTerror James Cameron This time Robert B. Englund could be manic pilot Grace Zabriskie.

The work on 31st St. is paused until the lawsuit gets figured — but in the meantime, we have a living example of a much calmer, safer corridor (and one I'm more likely to frequent now).

I was shocked how basically 98% of my #bikenyc friends have never ridden over the GWB. So I stitched this experience together withg lots of luscious footage in hopes they go try it out on the final Summer Streets of the year on Saturday! NYC DOT WATCH: youtube.com/watch?v=fiZbhh…

If SEPTA's cuts go thru in January 2026 - we will be living in a world where Baltimore has better quality transit than Philadelphia. I never in a million years thought that sentence would ever be typed by me.

Why didn’t they just give her a line like, “Hey Grumpy, if you need to halt a #bikenyc lane I’m your gal.”
