@cargobikesyyj.bsky.social#cargobikes with motors means you get around faster and go much farther. But how riding an ebike or cargobike with a motor might be a mystery to you. Read on to learn a bit more about how pedal assist cargo bikes work.

@smokeycrow.bsky.socialA screening of A Simple Machine is happening on October 28th and may be of some interest to #yyjbike.
@pentastich.bsky.social1/ The new Galloping Goose detour by Viaduct park started today. It even made the CBC! The construction feel endless, but I'm looking forward to people walking there getting their open, separated, pathway.

@cargobikesyyj.bsky.socialSometimes there are hidden ways to get around to great places. One Big Wheel Burger spot is right next to a major multi-use trail in #yyj - but it isn't obvious how to get there.
@sarahfrumento.caI saw this sticker on a bike today. Where do I find one for my collection?

@smokeycrow.bsky.socialSometimes it’s fun to check out the Parliament Buildings on Monday night. #yyjbike #yyj #victoriabc #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia
@cargobikesyyj.bsky.socialCargo bikes can be heavy duty machines. And rightly so, because they have the capacity to haul a lot. But just how heavy are they to handle? Read more about what it can be like to use and handle a cargo bike.
@smokeycrow.bsky.socialAfter 12 years it feels like it’s time to replace the ‘main bike’. Sadly the only option for an acoustic dutch-ish style bike within a 200km radius of Victoria is a single spot in Vancouver. Seems like Victoria should have such a place, but apparently not… #yyjbike
