I love it when a brewery/bar plays some wonky music. Modist Brewing is playing this 2019 set from The_Widdler right now, great vibes!

The Midtown Greenway will be closed between 5th Ave and Bryant Ave Tuesday 10/27 to Friday 10/30 for the Pillsbury Ave S bridge reconstruction project. This is to pave the trail, slope paving, and reinstall the fence next to it. #MidtownGreenway

The only podcast that asks the burning question: what sparks joy

I somehow found myself eating fish-and-chips at an Irish Pub in Berlin. At least I had a German beer 🤪

#OnThisDay Sept 23 1955: 15 months after Twin Cities Rapid Transit streetcars last ran, city crews begin pulling up the tracks for scrap, starting on 11th St at Hennepin Ave in downtown Minneapolis. Heavy Belgian blocks that once held the ight of way in place were also removed.

Minneapolis Nerd Nite - 1st Anniversary! Tonight!! 6:00p!!! Eat Street Crossing (29th and Nicollet)!!!! ~10 five-minute presentations!!!!! Free tres leches cake and free brownies for attendeess!!!!!!

It was thrilling, in a way, to bike home from Saint Paul to Uptown tonight without rain gear and cross Sabo Bridge in a thunderstorm. Once I got home, I bent my feet and saw water coming out the tops of my shoes 😁

city will fix 2 notorious Uptown bike lane problems between now and 2028: -connect the missing link on Lake between Humboldt & Hennepin Ave. -convert to a 2 way bike lane on Hennepin between Lake & 31st; create curbside parking for food delivery drivers who always park in the existing lanes.

We tried all 3 of the new Oreo flavors so you don’t have to. Chicken and Waffles: savory, oddly delicious. “Like if a Chicken in a Bizkit cracker and a golden Oreo had a baby” Deep Fried: it’s fine. Everyone agreed it was kind of boring Banana Pudding: One of the worst things I’ve ever eaten

Crop Art(emis) II: Seeds of Tranquility Based on Craters of Time, taken by the crew during the Lunar Flyby on April 6, 2026. Black lentils and 90,000 pieces of quinoa stacked in eight layers on canvas board. Third place in Crop Art Class 1 (Natural Colors).

I even saw my first other Kyoot Rolly Polly in the wild on the Lowertown DJ Ride! It’s a fun bike to zip around with 😁

Thank you to everyone who came out today and made the Saint Paul Nut Roll V a success. The Nut Roll is Dead, Long Live the Nut Roll

Upcoming Midtown Greenway closure: Tuesday August 25 to Thursday August 27 between Bryant Ave and 5th Ave. This is to install the precast girders on the new Pillsbury Ave bridge. The detour is on 28th St.

When my partner helped set up for it, she said “I can’t believe I get paid to do this”

You do what you must when you look this good

Bryant Ave bike gang reunited, even if we didn’t see @wedge.live to take the photo

My favorite thing about Uptown Porchfest today is the guy wearing a Malört shirt (and it wasn't even me!).

Awoo 🚨

pearson's in st. paul is closing and laying off all its workers

Heads up, the Midtown Greenway will be closed from Aug 3-7 for 10th Ave for bridge work and for CenterPoint Energy utility work (around 13th and 14th Aves). These were scheduled together to minimize closures. The detour is on 28th St from Park Ave S to 18th Ave S. #MidtownGreenway

We need more 24 hour stores. I have a smoke alarm beeping due to low battery and realized I'm out of 9V batteries 😩

I saw a train on the greenway tonight! I'm declaring that if you bike past a train on the greenway, you'll have good luck for the week.

Remember that this smoke is climate change visualized. If we want a smoke free future we have to combat it in every arena: transportation, infrastructure, housing, waste management, energy use, etc. It also means, combating doomerism, we can take action for a better future! No battle is too small!

Lyndale Avenue Reconstruction design passes City Council (8-4) with amendments from @sorenwithward8.bsky.social and @aurinmpls.bsky.social 🎉

The Lyndale Ave reconstruction was approved 8-4 at the Minneapolis City Council meeting this morning! We've been working on this #LivableLyndale effort for over three years and believe this new street design will be a great improvement to the area. I hope that Mayor Frey will approve too.

Watch us truly feel the conditions of Lyndale Ave as we ride over broken asphalt. The street needs to be reconstructed, and I hope city council will approve the layout tomorrow.

Tonight was such a good evening for biking, peak summer night riding.

The new masculinity focuses on: -Strength as service -Emotional capacity -Co-creative partnership -Purpose over ego -A Lyndale Ave for the year 2100 Please feel our joy.

STREET RECONSTRUCTIONS NEED MORE WHIMSY

The stretch of the Mississippi River that runs through the Twin Cities is part of the only gorge on the entire river. Some environmental groups say removing locks and dams in the region would help restore the river's ecological health and create new recreational opportunities. But questions remain.

We usually promote via a few social posts but the efforts of these climbers to spread the word on the next DJ ride is much appreciated.

Yes. A bike emergency has been declared. We ride tomorrow, June 28. Departing Mueller Park at 7:30 pm.

Perpetual callout to how nice the Sabo Bridge is. Minnesota's first cable stay bridge and a great place to see a sunset (or sunrise)!

A Metro Transit bus stops at the Minneapolis West Lake Street Station in June 2026. Soon we’ll see buses and trains moving over and under each other just as the trains enter/exit the tunnel.

I got to the Pillsbury Ave bridge demolition a little earlier this evening. The piers look cool with the rebar fanning out of the tops. I think the piers will remain in place and get capped over (like the 10th Ave bridge replacement)?

Bridge down! The Pillsbury Ave S bridge over the Midtown Greenway started demolition today.

This is the second heavy rain and hailstorm I've had to take shelter under a tree for in the last few years. I found a better tree this time!#mnwx
