@ascentale @meganL To me #CripCycling fits with the spirit of #CripTheVote but I say that as a non-crip wanting to support #OwnVoices. When I did a Twitter #BikeSchool related to this topic Gabrielle Peters chose #WheelsMoveMe to represent the overlap of cycling and assistive devices. http://bikestylespokane.com/2019/12/10/welcome-to-our-twitter-chat-bikeschool-moveequity-wheelsmoveme/

Someone created a map of wheelchair-accessible trails on the Olympic Peninsula. What a great resource! https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1wS1RsmgPxYn1Oc4VBcvDkA-y4920W4U&ll=47.909290450917915%2C-123.34453147086255&z=8

Had to write up a blog post about my transit/walk trip the other day with all the sidewalk gaps.

"Shared Streets: A Vision". Bicycling isn't the only set of wheels for moving people around. http://bikestylespokane.com/2024/02/03/shared-streets-a-vision/

Sea to Sound ride was so fabulous! They produced a video with those of us who spent time in a power wheelchair for a small exposure to trails from a different vantage point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5uu8zFnqAM&ab_channel=Ian%27sRide #SeaToSound #SeaToSound2023 #trails #RailTrails #BikeEvents #BikeTooter #WheelsMoveMe #MoveEquity #MobilityJustice #wheelchair #accessibility

"Well planned, inclusive and accessible infrastructure benefits all members of society, especially the marginalised. Lack of cycle infrastructure is negligent, ableist and ageist." -EJ Barrett

I'm going to mark my calendar for next year's Sea to Sound as soon as they tell us the dates! Day Three was beautiful and I want to do this again. What a feeling of freedom to ride for 70 miles the past 3 days, almost every last foot of it on a separated trail.

Day Two of Sea to Sound: time in a power wheelchair, strawberry ice cream, and some hills. http://bikestylespokane.com/2023/08/26/wheeling-sea-to-sound-day-two/

Packing up for Port Angeles on the Olympic Peninsula to be ready to ride Sea to Sound the next 3 days on Olympic Discovery . IRL ride is full but you can still participate virtually and support Ian Mackay's work for a more accessible outdoors for all. https://www.iansride.com/sea-to-sound
Saturday I'll be in a power wheelchair for 5 miles at Ian's invitation to experience the ride from a new perspective.

I put up a quick blog post about my plans to wheel Sea to Sound Aug. 25-27. Pic of me with Ian Mackay on the post is from 2018 multi-day bike tour we did from Seattle through NW corner of Washington into BC and back. Ian saw on Twitter that I was riding through and rolled out to surprise me. http://bikestylespokane.com/2023/08/06/wheeling-sea-to-sound/ #SeaToSound #BikeOlyPen #WheelsMoveMe #GetOutside #BikeTooter #accessibility #IansRide #IanMackay #trails

I started collecting poems with bicycle references a while back http://bikestylespokane.com/2022/12/10/i-think-therefore-i-ride-a-bike-rack-of-bicycle-poems/. Now working on a second list that's growing. Have any favorites? Doesn't have to be "about" bicycling; could be that bikes appear in passing, riding is used as metaphor--you know, POETRY.
