Took advantage of free rides on Metrolink if you had a bike!

Finally finished reading Alaska, by James Michener! A tale of epic proportions like all of Micheners work, but I particularly love many of the natural settings in this one. His stories always get me eager to learn some actual history!

Taking the train from Los Angeles to the Grand Canyon!

I think this transit map in Pasadena needs to be updated...

Riding the bus means bringing a book. Can't say the same for driving!

Every bus agency should strive to have seats as comfortable as Foothill Transit.

Space reclaimed from a couple of parking spots to make an intersection safer, add bike parking, a rest area, and a counter flow bike lane. Beautiful!

I decided to take the train for a business trip while my coworkers each drove separately. I would much rather get to relax read, and watch a beautiful sunset than be stuck in traffic. Always check if the train is a possibility for your next trip!

Traveling by train has its perks!

Berlin U-bahn. A beautiful system in a beautiful city!

Parking protected bike lanes are cheaper than concrete and at a minimum just require paint, but so many jurisdictions just refuse to use them. Why?

Delayed train? Just an opportunity to explore! During a recent trip, our train was delayed by a couple of hours. If this were a flight, we'd be stuck in the airport, but because it's a train, it just meant that we got to explore Flagstaff for a couple hours!

Los Angeles history lives on at the Southern California Railway Museum

I love headways like this! #metrolosangeles #losangelesmetro

Hoping for another Arroyofest type event in the future! Bikes and pedestrians taking over a freeway sparks joy.

I still can't get over how awesome it was that LA Metro saw so much ridership for the Dodger's parade!
