I feel like kids are often left out of the discourse on bike lanes, especially in the media. Children have had enough of their independence stripped; there should be a focus on returning that. Bike lanes are a great tool.

Thanks for leading us!! The girls had a great day. Next time we ride we will have to get a side-by-side with you and Suzie to show the massive difference in wheel size. We also made the news! youtu.be/2GCR9T4h_Wc?...

Happy 8-year-old holding a beautiful blue bike with wheels that are half of her height.

Summer nights.... Bugs were thick but the company was good 💯. Thanks for the chat @giantbluering.bsky.social #yycbike. Clear glasses or goggles recommended especially through the low spots.
Bottom of the giant blue ring, one of Calgary's prominent public art displays. Glamorgan chocolate bun and a titanium bicycle.

Yeah she is a giant. 8 years old, starting grade 3 and like 4"8. We are thinking shorter stem and the narrowest redshift kitchen sink bars / bag combo. Agreed, fit is so important
yyc-david.bsky.social
The perfect bike for her. We need a shorter stem and we're going to do some upgrades over time..... She is thrilled. Loves the drop bars. The shifting is precise and she's got it mostly figured out. @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social yes it is noticeably fast.

Back to our regular programming.... 😊 Thank you to @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social for staying late and helping us get this beauty set up. She made all the hills on the way home! #yycbike
Happy child with a shiny new bike 😁

Uhh. Not ready to talk about it. Lol.

Stolen! Please keep an eye open #yycbike. Taken off our front porch while we were home. Stolen from 24a Street SW near 17th Ave. We are out looking for it now.

The blue line is closed from downtown to Westbrook this weekend. Shuttle buses are in place but we chose the hill..... #yycbike.

It uses the ccha 3 speed system... Climbing, cruising & hauling ass. They have had a non-assisted 3 speed auto shift rear hub for their mid drives since 2022. With proper setup it should tackle any hill.

We were checking this out on our school run this week. Looking so good 💯.

I had to get the big plate out tonight. Cheers!
Giant plate full of delicious food.

I've been riding Northwest... Bowness to Tuscany then rolling the hills through watermark / bearspaw. Some nice punchy climbs, empty bike paths & massive freshly paved suburban streets that are empty. Aggression is also up in the core, paths are congested, lots of red light running etc. #headsup
The bestest bicycle by itself in quasi nature.

Need you to check the specs on the fork, Marin doesn't list on website. I'm going to eBay a 160 or 165mm GXP compatible SRAM carbon road crank. All I need to buy is the crank, carbon fork and 11 spd mech.
