The potential for bicycling is so strong Minnesota estimates that "transformative mode shift" can be accomplished with an investment of $146 million/year as the DOT has a $1.8 billion/year budget Often transportation investments chase marginal improvements, hopefully MN commits to transformation

Bike friends don't let bike friends pay day-of pricing when we all know how perfect Saturday is already going to be.

Online registration closes at midnight tonight!

Probably good to buy a few extras just in case! You never know!!! 😬

@bikemn.bsky.social Oct 7, 2026, 9:28 PM

Not yet registered? It'd be cooler if you did.

Cut off is in just a short few hours and you'll probably forget if you don't impulse purchase those tickets right meow!

The majority of Minnesotans ride bikes. The majority of Minnesotans also say they'd bike more if there was better and safer infrastructure to do so.

@mndot.mn.gov's update to the Statewide Bicycle+ System Plan is good, but does it go far enough?

We recently joined friends from @streets.mn , @ourstreetsmn.org, @sierraclubmn.bsky.social, @sustainstpaul.bsky.social, and @moreneighbors.org to discuss how to get more transportation champions into elected office.

The first Saturday ride is the Loons Loop from @bikemn.bsky.social! We meet 8:30 a.m., at Brackett Park for a kid-friendly river loop that’s just 4 miles long. It’s a collab with Joyful, Piecycle and Loons Coffee, where there’ll be free treats and coffee at the shop.

Flyer for the Loons Loop ride on Saturday, 10/3, meeting at Brackett Park at 8:30

Cheating at: Grocery runs Kid drop offs Not making your knees hurt Taking up less space than a car Avoiding car costs Showing up to stuff not sweaty etc It's a big deal for folks who mistake the purpose of a bike for one of the many benefits of a bike. ;)

MnDOT has identified revenue for roads of $37B over next 20 years and says it needs $15B+ more. So minimum $52B+, or $2.6B/yr. The MAX proposed amount in Bike+ Plan = $146M/yr.or. 5.6% Nowhere near enough.
