Crossing the Mississippi this morning, there were times and angles when I couldn’t see the Short Line Bridge through the fog, but •could• see its reflection.

Kudos to Canadian bike advocates sharing helpful resources, in particular: Thanks to BC Cycling Coalition and Capital Bike for bike event parking / bike valet templates, etc. Updated links: Toolkit https://www.bcbikevalet.ca/contents
/ related report https://bccycling.ca/blog/bike-valets-in-bc-show-growing-impact-on-mode-shift-climate-2025-final-report
Monterey County is among the many regions that have had bike valet parking https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/valet-parking-service-for-cyclists at some events, but not nearly enough. (It isn’t feasible that the most frequent valet provider for many years simply can’t do it all.) We’d love to see more people providing bike valet parking here—and chances are many of you have the same need in your region.
Save yourself some time; check out those resources from generous bike advocates in Canada!

wet bulb (n) The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans and animals.
"Diana went for a bicycle ride this morning and turned into a wet-bulb."

Checked out an electric bicycle. Couldn't tell much difference. In fact, it seemed much worse, too heavy and handling badly. I was about 10 feet from the bike share station to return it when I noticed there was a power button I hadn't turned on. 🤷
