One day at a time. “Get in and get out” when going online to be informed. Message a loved one outside any social media app for connection!

I got to bike to our first-ever “Better Streets film fest” at the Capitol Theatre! Huge turnout for good urbanism stories from Buffalo, Chicago, L.A., Houston, and more.

Big thanks to @bikecleveland.bsky.social and dedicated volunteers like @philtkidd.bsky.social!
