Accessibly Urban
Приєднався 10 чер 2024
My bike rides make me happy, and I'd like to share them with you! I'm also professional transit planner, and I write about urban planning topics (Public Transportation, Urban Governance, Cycling, Zoning and Land Use, Musings of a Bus Driver). If that sounds interesting to you, check out some of my Substack!
Note: You will see me run stop signs and red lights. It's called the Idaho Stop, and it actually keeps me safe. Learn more about the Idaho Stop at the NHTSA link below.
Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy!

What a nice experience! Thank you for sharing this POV. I hope I get the chance to visit Chicago one day. It always got my attention, I’ve watched POVs from cars, train and now bike 😊 I wish you the best of luck with your channel! Subscribed! Greetings from Brazil (approximately 535000 mi away).
Thanks for watching!
Those barriers aren't to keep cars from hitting bicycles it is there to keep bicyclist in their lane. I see so many cyclists do stupid things, I am surprised more arent hit.
چقدر زیبا
Thank you for posting this
Awww, thank you! 😁🚲
Pop-up comments throughout the video are a nice touch. 😉👍🏾🚲
It’s like visiting this town without having been in the country. Thanks
Excited that I can show off the city. Thanks for watching!
I don’t get it
I simply don’t trust people not to right hook me. Had way too many close calls. People see you they just choose to ignore. I live in Chicago too.
100% agree. I've just gotten to the point where I'm pretty good at seeing it coming, but it's getting pretty disheartening how many people obviously see me and just do it anyway
😁😁
What kinda train is this??
The model is a SD70MACH. It's actually in a batch of trains that Metra (the commuter railroad here in Chicago) had rebuilt. They just started getting delivered in 2022
wow nice view
Watch those speed bumps!! 🚴♂️😁
Be careful out there!! 🚴♂️🚴♂️🚲
Exactly! As well, stop running stop signs and that will help too.
If your car ends up on the LFT and you're not some sort of parks or emergency staff who's supposed to be there, your license should be revoked permanently.
At minimum, I wish the city would at least harden the access points to the LFT against cars. There's a yellow gate that separates the trail from LSD near here that's always open. No controlled access or anything.
Maybe they made a wrong turn. 🙅🏽♀️😁
Several wrong turns it looks like 😂
@@AccessiblyUrban 😆
Boring
A lot of times if you see a car like that it is a temporary storage spot that the city wreckers parked after an overnight accident on Lake Shore Drive and will be moved within 48 hours. I've lived in the area for over 40 years and see them from time to time. The city will tow and impound the car if it is not moved by the owner.
That makes so much sense! I sincerely couldn't think of why it would be there, perfectly centered in the spot. Thank you!
i grew up at 1116 Hermatage Im glad St Boniface hasent been torn down . was baptized there 1966 .
Are their any bike clubs or groups you ride with sometimes? 🚲🚲
Streets Calling is a bike club that does Thursday night rides that I try to ride with. Critical Mass is another ride that happens the last Friday of every months. I've only done that a few times though.
Good
Cool a$$ video!! Dancing shadow man was fun! 😁🚲
Nice
That's eastbound on Belmont.
Nice catch. I updated the description. Thank you!
@@AccessiblyUrban You're welcome. I didn't mean to come off as a "know it all". I like your rides. Plan on duplicating some of them.
Biked past my apartment this time!
Wondering what time of day this is…. Seems like a peaceful enough ride. Had to watch it double speed. Did hear the yelling man! He evidently needs some help. Gotta be a fellow like him in every city, sadly. Had noticed same thing on my rides far from Chicago from time to time. One of the world’s great cities! Thanks for taking us along with you! Could you let us know a little about the bike you are riding and your gear? Always kinda surprised to see so few people around…
Thanks for watching! This was around 7am! My bike is a Golden Cycles Vader fixed gear bike, and I record with a gopro mounted to my handlebars!
Nice motorcycle on sidewalk ride
Agh the singing :P
Thank you!❣️
😁😁
Need dedicated bike lanes all around Chicago. Separated by some barrier. People would ride more. Wouldn't be against an elevated bike lanes throughout Chicago
Couldn't agree more! think the city is slowly realizing that and taking steps in the right direction, but it's moving at a glacial pace considering how easy cycling infrastructure is to build.
NICE TOUCH AT THE BEGINNING AND END! 🚲
Thank you! I'm trying to learn a few new tricks 😅😅
Nice footage
Thanks!
@@AccessiblyUrban Heck yeah. I used to bike Chicago for a few years, but now I'm sort of out in the south burbs. I just started my channel a few weeks ago and hope to capture some rides back in the city soon.
I don't like the look of it 🤷
Honestly, I agree, but it was trending for a while, so it'd be a missed opportunity to not share 😅
I bet that felt good!
And I got a free bike wash out of it!
Interesting looking car 🤔🙅🏽♀️
They definitely broke the mold with it 😅
😂😂 not the serenade!? 😅😅
I'm getting more comfortable riding with a camera 😅
Thanks for the ride! 👍🏾🚴🏽♂️
GHOST BIKE 🥺😭 PLEASE BE CAREFUL ON THESE STREETS! #SHARERTHEROAD
I might make an extended video about the ghost bikes in Chicago. I'll be safe!
Do you plan your routes or just wing it?
It depends. I have a few standard routes that I used when I need to control the time of the ride, but sometimes I follow them exactly, sometimes I vamp on them, and some times I full-tilt wing it based on where I want to go that day.
The speedometer is a nice touch! I always wondered how fast you're going.
Alright PSA! Thanks for the info! 👍🏾🚴🏽♂️
Nice panoramic shot!! 🚲✌🏾
Thanks!
Thanks for the ride! 🚲✌🏾
Anytime!
the 606 looks beautiful - thanks, never saw it before
I'm glad you enjoyed watching! My next few videos will mostly be going back and forth along the 606 if you want to see more of it. Thanks for watching!
Trains, trains, trains. 🚴🏽♂️🚴🏽♂️
🚲❤ nice view!
❤🚵♀️ Nice xieq!
Thanks!
Look both ways before crossing 😊😊
How do you attach your camera to your bike?
I use the mount linked below. Thanks for asking Link: Sametop Handlebar Bike Pole Mount... www.amazon.com/dp/B0BZZ6R18W?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
@@AccessiblyUrban Thanks! I was looking to record my local trail, but didnt know how.. This really helps!
