"Cranksgiving" is becoming an annual tradition! This year we took the GO train to Burlington and cycled back to Toronto, fuelling ourselves with bagels & burgers along the way. #BikeTO #BikeON #bikesky @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social @gotransit.bsky.social @jsquaredink.bsky.social

As a Montrealer, this makes me so proud! 🙌
“Though other cities offer bike-sharing programs, “Montreal revolutionized the trend,” TIME wrote, calling Bixi’s technology “the backbone” of bike-sharing services in cities including London and New York.”

Bixi bike-sharing program among the top 25 inventions in 25 years, TIME Magazine declares

The list also includes the iPhone and the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator.

Thanks for capturing and sharing this Jeremy. It was a positive, issues-focused, and informative discussion.

I thought the moderator was excellent in keeping things moving and being friendly in tone.

A line of bikes and riders roll along the Glenmore Pathway. It is dark, but head lights show the way, and red taillights are prominent in the photo.

Bikes are settled in place with lights on. People are scattered about socializing during a break. Dark tree silhouettes fill out the background.

A dark pathway is lit only by a bicycle head lamp. Trees with pale park are lit from ground to below their canopy.

The path between Ucluelet and Tofino may be the most wonderful one Uma and I have ever experienced together. #brompton #yyjbike #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #bikesky

Replaced the hinge clamps yesterday.

The Brompton hinge clamp design is intended for the clamp plate to wear instead of the bike's frame, so Brompton recommends replacing both clamps every 8,000 kms or when the gap between the hinge casting and the clamp plate is less than 0.90 mm.
