Today's featured Twitter user is @bikeambassadors. Brought to us by the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia, the same people behind the BikePHL blog, they work to make biking around the city "accessible, safe, and fun." We're pretty sure they also work on that occasionally high degree of tension between drivers and cyclists. Follow them to stay current on the latest local biking news.




We at the Gothamist network would like to express our heartfelt wishes to the people of Minnesota in the days after their tragic bridge collapse. We're not trying to discount the severity of the accident by making note of it in opposition to our usual -Ist lightheartedness – we just wanted to take a moment and recognize those affected last week.
