I recently attended the open house where St. Paul city staff presented the plans for the reconstruction of Pelham Boulevard. The open house was well-attended, and I saw many familiar faces, including others wearing face masks like my own in light of the unhealthy air quality on the day of the event. In summary, the reconstruction plans include converting the current flexpost-separated bikeway along this section of the St. Paul Grand Round into an off-street trail, similar to those along Como ...| Streets.mn

Coasting south on the Bryant Avenue bikeway, riders coming from all directions coalesced with me as we approached the meeting place of Genosack’s second slow-pace ride of the summer. I learned of this ride from a few friends and dear acquaintances who have been participating since the beginning way back in September 2023. If you missed the first three, do not worry. One more official ride is scheduled on Monday, September 8. And if, like last year, the weather is kind, the group might throw...| Streets.mn

We all know that it’s better for the earth to forego driving (or drive less). It’s vastly safer to have fewer cars on the road (cars being one of the main causes of death in our country). But in order to actually make significant changes in our lives and learn how to live in a values-aligned way, we need to have a personal stake in the matter. I will introduce two selfish reasons to give up your car or drive less: quality of time spent and cost of living. They both come down, more or less...| Streets.mn
I’ve long held the opinion that Northeast Minneapolis’ street design is terrible, often wide one-way designs or worse — four-lane death roads — that date back to the neighborhood’s industrial past. Note: That past is now largely missing and/or replaced by artists’ studios, wood-fire pizza restaurants and high-rise apartment buildings, mostly good changes. Yet even though the neighborhood has changed dramatically, the streets have long remained terribly dangerous, chaotic, confusin...| Streets.mn
Introduction: Spring 2023 Through a series of lemony snickets, this past spring I found myself without a bicycle. It made me sad, as I love riding my bicycles, and at the time I was unsure if I would ever see them or my home again. After spending several days in an Extended Stay, I found a small studio apartment that would become my home for the next year. That apartment had a cute little bicycle corral. My slot was inhabited with only the cold January memory of leaving my bikes in a garage a...| Streets.mn
On the warm summer evening of July 10, 2025, about 90 local residents crowded into a church hall to plan once again how to defeat the Summit Avenue Regional Trail. The meeting was organized by Save Our Street (SOS), which has been fighting a proposed bike trail along St. Paul’s most celebrated street for several years. At this late date, SOS has chocked up an unbroken list of defeats. Multiple levels of government have already approved the Summit trail plan: Approved by the St. Paul Plannin...| Streets.mn
Editor’s note: We asked Streets.mn correspondents Laura Groenjes Mitchell and Michael Daigh to cover the second annual Cargo Bike Show & Tell event in Minneapolis in June. Laura begins the story, and Michael picks up the narrative midway through. From Laura: On Sunday, June 1, 100-plus people gathered around 20-plus cargo bikes in a South Minneapolis park.

As road construction snarls traffic across the metro, there’s never been a better time to try alternatives to driving. However, it can feel daunting to try taking transit or riding a bike when these options aren’t familiar, especially because complaints about missing a bus or riding on a dangerous street tend to stand out more in your memory than when things go smoothly. With this in mind, I’d like to propose the transportation version of Meatless Monday (wherein you forgo meat one da...| Streets.mn

In mid-summer of 2019, just before the COVID-19 pandemic changed anything that might be considered routine, a friend and I crossed into Canada at Beebe Plain on what would be the last of several annual bicycle tours on the excellent rail trails and bike routes created by our neighbor to the north. We hadn’t pedaled too many kilometers when we noticed that something had dramatically changed since the previous year: E-bikes were everywhere and in abundance. When we stopped in a bike shop in S...| The Montpelier Bridge

Cycling has had many ups and downs since I (CABO supporter Pete Penseyres) started riding as an adult in 1971. Twice in the ’70s, Middle east countries banded together as OPEC and cut the world’s supply to boost prices when we were heavily dependent on imports. We had rationing, odd-even license plate days when we […]| CABO
We all love cycling, but figuring out where and how to store your bikes can be a cumbersome task to say the least.
