Live from our watch party, we are thrilled to join a historic wave of organizing #UnionsForAll in higher ed, and so excited for Duke grad workers. Today, we’ve formed the first recognized grad student union at a private university in the South, and 1 of the largest unions in NC!

@thmsngyn @movesafedurham We’re glad you’re not hurt, Thom. We need to get @NCDOT on board with Durham’s vision for safer streets, which means slowing drivers.

I was hit by a car while biking at Duke and Markham an hour ago. Car ran a red, hit me, and drove away! Glad I could walk away from this, but some are not so lucky. We need to make Durham roads safer @movesafedurham

If you haven’t already, please consider signing Bike Durham’s petition to City Council to fund a Vision Zero Coordinator. Let’s make 2023 the year we begin standardizing the design and construction of safe multimodal streets in our city.
On Monday, we’re calling for City Council to fund a #VisionZero agenda. If you support, sign the petition:

this happened right next to @DukeU's east campus where there is no bike lane or even a shoulder to bike on. not to mention that too many bikers have been injured or worse recently. thankful for the advocacy @BikeDurham is doing and Durham needs to listen

love to start off my day with a guy in truck almost hitting me on a small two way street (while illegally passing in the other lane) and proceeds to tell me it's because I didn't signal

Birders have a tradition of "lifer pie," when we see a new-to-us bird species so we celebrate by eating pie. I'd like to propose "lifer dip," when we travel a long way and utterly fail to see a bird, so we drown our sorrows in guacamole.
