A critical opportunity to make progress toward extending the Midtown Greenway across the river is on the line right now at the legislature. The private railroad company (MN Commercial) that owns the 31st Ave bridge wants public money for repairs via a MRSI grant. (1/3)
I’ve been some form of bike mechanic for about 15 years. I’ve worked professionally in shops, volunteered at non-profits, and have built and repaired bikes for myself, friends and family. It all started because I stumbled across Sheldon Brown and the Harris Cyclery. Thank you.
RIP to Harris Cyclery, one of the greatest bike shops in America and the former home of Sheldon Brown, the original source of esoteric bike mechanic information on the internet.

New @TrekBikes magazine arrived today. I’m trying to decide what is the most surprising thing about the “Cities that made the nice list in 2020”. My options are; 1) The Twin Cities aren’t listed or 2) Baltimore is apparently in Minnesota now.

The Hub on the West Bank is closing. This all really sucks.

It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the passing of our founder, Jeremy Werst. We don't know the reason, but we're thankful for the community he fostered. RIP Jeremy and BIKE LOVE!

Right up front the @MinneapolisPD 4th Precint a @CityMinneapolis Public works SVU parked inside the divided bike lane like he owns it instead of parking on the side street. So frustrating and sad. @tcblockedlanes @cycletc – at Minneapolis, MN
I’ve been riding over the 10th Ave. bridge twice daily for a long time and this is sorely needed. The best news is that it is going down to one lane for vehicle traffic each way. People treat that thing like a freeway easily hitting 40-50 MPH. startribune.com/minneapolis-…

Want to see high level racing return to the Twin Cities? I do. Takes a lot of money to do it, please chip in what you can. gofundme.com/f/huxs9-a-cause…
