Todd Tyrtle is NOT HERE
@gooutsidetoday.com
Hey all, the lack of decent CWs, filters or unactionable doom posts (I get it, we're not all here for the same reasons) has me not checking this site anymore. To get in touch, find me at https://zirk.us/@toddtyrtle where I can better curate my feed.
A little whimsy seen on the way to the subway station. A tiny snowdog with surprisingly expressive minimalist features.

My US experience. I've passed through many of the "not visited" ones either in airports or on highways but that doesn't count. Then there's Louisiana where I spent about 1/3 of my 2016 and lots of time in 2014-2017 on a remote assignment so I have some experience: Good food/weather, Awful politics.

Oh cool! Here's mine for Canada then.
December 30, 2025 at 8:26 PM
And by reluctant I mean if I were forced to leave Canada and most other countries were not an option. I grew up in New England so I could probably manage if need be but I would be far from pleased.

Chilly -12 degree commute today. Dressed properly and rode on winter tires so it was lovely. It’s weird how much slower riding in subzero temps is. Pedalling feels so much harder.

Am I cold? With flannel shirt, windbreaker, neck gaiter wool socks and merino leggings under jeans I was actually overheated. #bike #toronto #cycling

Today’s ride video is a commute - I actually talk a bit about the route and winter cycling. It was such a gorgeous day though the winter tires are loud! It sounds like I’m frying bacon on the route! #cycling

So after mostly getting 100-300 views per post on TikTok I posted about fetching groceries without a car. There was hardly any contention about carfree life. But OH BOY! The comments on the post were *filled* with people arguing about what these things are called. What do you call these?

Fact: this season is far less dismal when viewed from the seat of a bicycle #cycling

Not a ride video - a forced rest day. Need a cassette tool to get the trainer ready to ride indoors and summer tires on the commuter still. It's beautiful to look at though.

Looking forward to sharing winter commute videos now that cold weather batteries are ordered! #cycling

It’s crazy. This was on the door of my dentist on Tuesday. I can’t believe we are at this point when it was so avoidable.

What a great ride in to work - I have a number of routes to choose from but this one is 85% off-road so even though I was riding at 8:00 AM in Canada's largest city, one car passed me. (Though my radar said 2 because somehow riding near high tension power lines creates "phantom" cars on the radar)

As I promised myself, I got on the bike after work after missing the morning ride. SO much more traffic than 5:30 AM but also much warmer too. Glad I got out.

Measles warning signs on the door of the dental office are giving me Déjà vu.

The clouds last night were ridiculous. Not long after this came a downpour and even a little hail!

They look lost. Should I help them? I don’t want to be too presumptuous

So dark this morning - rain due for the trip home. Brought my rain gear so I’m ready for an adventure. #Toronto #cycling #bike #autumn #morning

This morning I definitely didn't want to go to work let alone bike. I still have a bit of a cold and had a headache most of the night. I'm glad I went, though. The ride was really pretty and despite the cold I stayed nice and warm. And surprisingly my headache improved. #cycling #biketo

The unintentional timing of this episode's release was amazing. Or conspiracy theory-inspiring 😂

Full on autumn now. Last night’s rain brought most of the leaves down. #Toronto #cycling #bike #autumn

Morning bike commute. I love when commuting time is at the golden hour. #Toronto #cycling #bike #morning #autumn

Didn’t want to go out in the rain at 5:20 am but still did it. Headwind, rain and made two trips back for forgotten wallet and glasses. Rather than a fast lap of Thornhill as I usually do I meandered around the city. Turns out that was a great way to enjoy the morning.

The frogs have arrived in Canada - seen today at the No Kings protest in Toronto.

Since people have been enjoying the classic music today’s commute home has a cancon themed detour
