The kid and I are in Las Vegas this week visiting family. Kinda tough to be car-free, but we’re making it work. On our walk found what Google Maps assures me is a bike lane. https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/sn/526105/

ORCA Card skins are a hit! Already sold 75% of our stock. https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/shop/ I even exhausted my stamp cache and had to resort to ones I found lying around. I apologize to customers who receive a gauche out-of-season winter stamp. Bruce Lee and baby animals stamps should arrive very soon. https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/sn/526317/

Trying out a new “social notes” feature for social media-sized posts. Social notes are posted on Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads and Facebook while also living on the blog itself. It’s part of my ongoing effort to own more of my own work and not rely too heavily on another platform. I would love to hear your thoughts on it. https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/sn/525082/

I had a great time at the Washington Talking Book and Braille Library recently, featured soon on their Literary Notes podcast. A great space and service. They are turning Biking Uphill in the Rain into a talking book! Such an honor. Did you know you can volunteer to read and help build their talking book collection? https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/sn/525092/
