🏅 For anyone who donates at $500, $1000, $2000 or more, I will be shipping you a unique small-batch burnt-wood token as a tiered trophy for winning the game of #SaveVigilante. (Not affiliated w/the bar, just of my own design & making.) Ensure your full name is shown when you donate.

Tally ho!!

3/3

This place is delightfully special, its owner is a sweetheart, they pay a living wage, and Austin deserves to have it around.

And I’ll personally be sending trophies to any people who‘re able to pitch in enough to really move the needle…

2/

Bonus: Today the 800 is running a #electricbus, and damn these things look & feel like the future. And they still smell like new-bus ✨ #Austin is that much more a serious city.

Use your own bike:
- Lock your front wheel + the frame to whatever you’re looking it to
- Lock your helmet to your bike
- Take removable things like headlights with you

Biggest win:
- Tell Siri “I parked here” and it will mark it for you

Enjoy zipping around SXSW!

For me personally, the new Rapids may reduce my own downtown travel time by bus from ~50min to ~30min. If you live northeast/central/southeast, try it out for yourself in the #TransitApp!

And the payment experience is a crucial part of the riding experience. I can’t wait to see the bump in ridership from that alone.

These aren’t the final-form of the Rapid lines, and I’m incredibly proud of CapMetro/ATP/the city for getting the routes operational soon, instead of waiting for perfection. Looking forward to more frequent service and electric buses, later on.
