This morning was the day I taught my dog to blep. Blepping is when they stick out their lil pink tongues and I've decided it is so adorable that I want to be able to ask for it.

In other news, I guess I should give a new intro to folks on this server who don't yet know me.

Hi! I'm Shan. Been around Mastodon for awhile but recently moved to this new server home. I'm into loads of things. Here's a start...

For a few hours, thousands of riders and one DJ on a bike transformed Hamburg's streets into something different: joyful, connected and alive.

Big love to Dom Whiting for bringing the energy and to everyone who joined the ride. 🚲🔊

If we can imagine streets like this for one evening, we can build cities like this every day.

Thx for the snippet @fischkoppmusic

For the last CyclingElectric magazine, we asked for people's stories on how an electric bike had changed their lives.

The responses remind us why we do this - there's some really inspirational tales here, from regained mobility, through weight loss journeys and doing the school run on a cargo bike just to see the smiles on the faces of children each morning:

A great score for the MiRider 24 GB3 at 4.5 / 5 stars.

This bike was specifically requested by bike shops to fill a demand that they felt existed, & has since gone on to be a best-seller for the Wigan e-bike assembler.

#canYouSeeMtHoodFromBurlingameFMpickupSpot4 at 2pm on yet another day that it's simply too nice to bike on, in the final week of #BikeMonth? #pdxTST #pdxBikes #BikeTooter

Yes, but just a little 🫣

I've put about five miles on this #xtraCycle sidecar in ten years or so, but it is pretty handy #bikeTooter #cargoBikes The kid held it steady or I would have needed a lot more straps. Short trip, 5-10mph
How do you carry a twin bed with the xtracycle, I guess? It's in parts but with some vague ikea "box spring" thing too. Long and wide things won't fit in the hatchback car anyway, and I would have to carry it sideways on the bakfiets (or build a cantilever on one side.) I also have the xtracycle sidecar but it's such a hassle to mount (removing the bottom rail) and I'm not sure it would help that much anyway without a vertical part. #cargoBikes

What do people in #Amsterdam use their #cargobikes for you ask?

Spotted @wearesanctum and their signature #cargobike—filled with blankets, mandalas and the kind of vibe that turns a city ride into a moving #meditation.

Sanctum is a mindful‑movement community that blends music‑led movement, breathwork and meditation into immersive 55‑minute classes.

They host these experiences in atmospheric venues, using movement as a way to expand the #mind and unlock emotional release ✨
