So not only did I finish the Greater Northshore Bike Connector Map to connect the Seattle and Eastside maps, I decided I would ALSO make a MEGAMAP of all three maps since King County stopped maintaining a map over 10 years ago which makes this the biggest maintained King County bike map since then.

Greater Northshore Bike Connector Map (May 2024)

May 2024 MEGAMAP (Northshore May 2024, Seattle EOY 2023, 2 Line Eastside April 2024)

due to my very specific collection of bandanas, I am only able to signal interest in Skeleton Sex, Tie-dye Sex, Tentacle Sex, and Sex on a Bicycle, Specifically In Berkeley.

Features I would like to get from my map sites

SHOW ME THE BUS LINES ON THE MAP PLEASE

Let me adjust my walking speed. I walk slowly. I am not fast. If the bus is in 7 minutes, and you say the walk is a 5-minute walk I am not making that bus.

Let me permanently mark places and roads on my map. Like, I want to see where is Ben's house every time I open the city map. I don't want to remember

Let me also permanently mark roads. and other shit. Let me put notes on places like "scary dog lives here" and "closes at 19:00"

MARK THE PATHS WITHOUT SHADES AT ANY SPECIFIC TIME AND LET ME AVOID THEM WHEN GOING ROUND THE CITY I SWEAR THIS WOULD MAKE MY LIFE BETTER

Show an "Is this road accessible by bike/wheelchair" marker.

Show parking space estimation. Also for bikes.

Let me have a separate road system with the bike and walking shortcuts. Also, sweetie, I know it's illegal, but I am driving on the sidewalk, I don't need to go on the direction of the road.

Just have a better interface please? Like, yours genuinely sucks (looking at you Google Maps! what is this abomination?)

Also let me theme the map? I want it to look like parchment please? It would make walking feel cooler.

Google Maps specifically, you already track all my friends' location. Let us share it around? like make groups that can view each other? no need for a new app.

add your own, I am sure there are more

Since there were no notes, RC1 of the Greater Northshore Bike Connector Map is the release! This map connects the City of Seattle maintained bike map (latest EOY 2023) and the new 2 Line Connector Map on the eastside, covering northwest King County.

The biggest addition to this version is an entire new category of routes showing where people bike when there isn't bike infrastructure in place. It's particularly useful in rural King County, but is also helpful a few other places, like Lake Forest Park, and it also shows how infrastructure "islands" connect together in real life.

I'm building a town for my new Kids on Bikes campaign (Tittled Definitely Not ScoobyDoo) and I've just spent the afternoon drawing a map of the town of Midday Mills

It's a very rough map and absolutely not to scale but hopefully my players will appreciate the visual representation rather than my half baked word pictures

I slept rly deeply last night even tho it took me a while to get to sleep but I think that was bc I had acid reflux and I'd been playing videogames too late not anything else.... still only got 6 hrs but doing pretty okay all things considered 😚

my post about the baby eating a tomato at the farmer's market has elicited mostly very positive reactions but there have been a couple of comments (since the containment breach) along the lines of "and then everyone clapped." and obviously I have no plans to question the authors of those comments but I am genuinely curious about what part of that story seems implausible to them. the tomato guy giving a baby a tomato for free? a baby happily eating a tomato? bystanders finding a tomato-eating baby adorable?

like it's a cute story sure but it doesn't seem all that credulity-straining to me. it's like if I said "so cozy in bed right now in my jammies" and some random stranger was like "suuuuure you are 🙄"

(I am. btw)

oughhhh one thing they do not tell you about the journey there is that you also have to make it back
