Hi World, so nice to be here!
I was The Clearing for many a tweet. Figured I'd take the opportunity to create a simpler handle :-) But just to explain, The Clearing is the title of a poem I wrote. One of these days I'll share that poem...had to help build some bike lanes first.

#BikeNite starts at 4pm Pacific. We ask cycle-y questions for community discussion. I post questions w/ Q1, Q2, Q3; if you answer w/ A1, A2, A3, etc, it's easier to match.
Tag #BikeNite if you want your answer to be more discoverable; follow it to see questions & replies in your feed. Boost & reply to replies to keep the discussion going.
(You can follow BikeNiteQ tag so questions are easier to find, but you don't need to include this in your answers)
Lucky to find a #podcast on this:
"You know, so this is what I’ve been wanting to talk about for actually a few weeks now. You know, when you’re on foot, when you’re on a bike, jogging, in a wheelchair, whatever, when you’re out on the street and you are without the protection of a car, and you have one of these experiences with a driver, you know, in a big vehicle, when a driver almost kills you... Like, where do you put the rage?"

Anyone out there know of studies on the safety of people #walking & #biking along the #highway when there are #roadside flashing electronic #billboards present?
My city's looking to get rid of an ordinance that prevents sign content from changing faster than a minute (or thereabouts), to allow signs to flash & change at any speed.
This is the sort of thing I would've put out on twitter back in the day... Mastodon, watcha got for me?😃
Well hello! Making my first post here to say, hi, yes, I'm still here, lol. It's been a year since I set up this account & I never did write that #intro post, did I... But with Threads apparently federating I'm hoping to follow more #bikey #bike friends including those formerly on twitter. (Can't quite bring myself to say #BikeTooter... well, there, I guess I just did.)
Anyway—some instances are blocking Threads; World isn't afaik. Did we know each other at 🐦 ? Are you here on Mastodon now? 👋😃
