Happy World Bicycle Day! 🌎🚲💙
A printed postcard of a woman on a bicycle held in front of a folded bicycle. A photo of a woman riding a bicycle with a milk crate on the back rack, and a small dog is looking at the camera from within the milk crate. A selfie of a woman in red sunglasses with a yellow toque on, and a lot of bicycles are riding along behind her. A photo of two folded bicycles tucked together next to a flower pot.

Join us on a 40-km pathway loop from downtown to the reservoir after dark.

Lights mandatory.

Meet on Friday, October 10, at the south side of the George C. King (Skipping Stone) Bridge in East Village at 6:20 p.m.

Wheels roll at 6:30 p.m.
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.

Despite the chilly weather, more than 150 people gathered for Coffee Outside to honour Dr. Darren Markland. We shared coffee, stories, and quiet moments, celebrating the life of an incredible person who touched so many lives.

Thank you to everyone who came out. ❤️

#yycbike sure knows how to celebrate a birthday. Thank you all once again for an amazing ride through the city. You are all The Critical Mass 🚲💗
Hundreds of cyclists on the top floor of the Saddledome parkade. Calgary city skyline shines beautifully in the background. A table set with paper plates and napkins. A cake decorated with horses and a container of cupcakes. Hundreds of people on bikes ride on the road in downtown Calgary. The Calgary Tower can be seen in the background.

“Decades of research show that protected bike lanes save lives. Cities around the world have found that when people feel safe riding, more people choose to bike – and everyone benefits. Protected lanes reduce injuries for all road users.”

Opinion: The premiers are using bike lanes as a political scapegoat
Safe cycling infrastructure saves lives, but sadly, many politicians are ignoring the facts

On X, Masaki Nobushiro posts a recurring (and useful) drawing about how people wrongly think a 1m tsunami is a cresting wave when it's actually a wall of water filled with dangerous and deadly debris that's strong enough to sweep up a car.

X post by @nobushiromasaki. JP text: カムチャッカ半島付近の大地震（M8.0）による津波、日本各地にも1m程度の津波が来るという注意報が出てる。侮らないで。1mは、ふつうに自動車が流されるレベルです。画像は拾い物だけど、これが本当だから。沿岸地域の方、特に気をつけて！

The boom and bust of Calgary's bike lanes. City hall set a goal of building 30km of cycle tracks by 2020. Today we have 26km. #yycbike

It's that time of the season!
Majority of our in stock bike inventory is on sale.
Brands won't let us post sale prices online (even tho they'll reduce prices whenever they feel like it) so get in here soon and let's arm wrestle.
Giddyup!

Several folks on bicycles bike down centre street. The Bow and Calgary Tower in the background. A group of hundreds of people on bikes stopped at an intersection. Hundreds of people on bikes riding up a hill on a sunny day. Downtown Calgary in the background. Huge group of people on bikes on a street.
