😉 Congratulations @kilpkaa.bsky.social
You are our @bsky.app follower no. 1500 !!
If you'd lived locally we'd have sent you a free copy of our excellent #Edinburgh #bikemap, but as you live in #Finland we will just send congratulations!
"Current" showing a sharrow where there isn't one and an incorrectly-aligned connection to the Eastrail / Cross Kirkland Rail, with arrows pointing at each error, one labelled "remove," one labelled "adjust."
"Updated" showing the actual connection across Eastrail / Cross Kirkland Rail connecting the two parts of Kirkland Avenue, and a green dotted "commonly used" marking along the western side of Kirkland Avenue. Arrows point at each new indicator, labelled with the word "add."
Okay, there. This'll be in 2.0.9.

...okay it's a 5° climb for 0.3 miles but why is the lowest-traffic way out of downtown Kirkland which takes you east _over_ 405 _not_ on the Eastside 2 Line Connector map?
It's even painted as sharrowed
guess I've got my first addition for maps 2.0.9

RELEASE: Greater Northshore and MEGAMAP Bike Maps version 2.0.8 - 14 February 2026
This release is basically about construction updates and temporary closures, the most important being Burke-Gilman in Kenmore (with detour) for five days staring February 16th.
As always, check the blog post for […]
Gonna drop a new bike map rev, but it's all just more caution/construction warning updates. The Burke-Gilman 5-day closure in Kenmore, NE 125th in Lake City getting all that work done (and it's gonna be great but right now it's, uh, yeah), and Kirkland's sewer problems just continue.
On the […]
new spam comment format: telling an AI to write up a long paranoid conspiracy theory comment about the post, adding the ad and links down at the bottom.
when this is about a bike map, it is _utterly_ hilarious
didn't stop me from deleting it from the spam queue but

Seriously, it's complicated in there.

(I'm filling in all the gaps south of Seattle and making a proper Greater Newcastle base map. It's not the biggest addition ever but it'll be nice to complete the rectangle, as well as having one fewer marking system)

Full Closure Eastrail Closure 12/1-12/5/2025 The Eastrail will be closed from December 1-5 near the Seahawks Training Center in Renton in order for crews to conduct trail repairs. Parks contractors will place and compact a new layer of gravel over the existing trail. Trail users should seek alternate routes during construction. The nearest trail access points are N 43rd St south of the closure and Ripley Lane N north of the closure.
Whups, big eastrail closure down south from December 1-5.
Gonna drop a new map tomorrow, it'll have some other correcitons too.

Me, feeling buff back from the gym before the pandenic.
Screen resolution preview of MEGAMAP 2.0.6a, big enough to see the special warning signs on the two affected trails.
## Maps Release: Greater Northshore Bike Connector, MEGAMAP 2.0.6(a)
Greater Northshore Bike Connector Map 2.0.6 – 1 November 2025 – is now available on github, as is MEGAMAP 2.0.6a.
This release reflects a two-week intermittent closure of the Sammamish River […]

shit I never did a MAPS 2.0.6 release post
better get on that then lol
#BikeMap
I did a slipstream drop of 2.0.6a (megamap only) to note the extension through end of November of Central Kirkland Connector being 100% closed at the south end. Signed detours are provided but the hills are real.
#BikeMap #GreaterNorthshore #maps #kirkland #biking #BikeTooter
area of the megamap showing updated text in the alert box near the south end of the closed area of the central kirkland connector. at least there are signed detours.
goddammit kirkland
AFTER I made edits and posted a quick maps update on Saturday, Kirkland posted that they were extending the _complete_ Central Kirkland Connector south-end closure through at least the end of November.
(To be fair, they probably […]

Sammamish River Trail INTERMITTENT CLOSURES November 3-14th with warning flag, new label for NE 178th, fake/temporary desire path markings, big red-and-black note about what's going on, and a gawdawful "use -> sidewalk" note on 202 because that's how you get under the railroad bridge.

Maps Release: Greater Northshore Bike Connector, MEGAMAP 2.0.5
This release is very small, containing only two upgrades (even if they're important), with some additional notes on the Central Kirkland Connector’s south-end closure.
As always, deets at the blog […]
I'll write it up better in a few, but: NEW BIKE MAP RELEASE 2.0.5 NOW if you want to see/grab it immediately:

Oh, I also rode 61st in Kenmore yesterday, to see how that's coming along. It's progressing reasonably. There's still a bunch more work to do, but you can see the outlines of it. Extrapolated bike lane width is looking fine but I'm a little concerned about whether these lanes will be buffered as […]
FINALLY.

Waiting for this to be open was the reason I didn't drop a new map immediately for Seatlte's E. Marginal Way S. I really wanted more than one […]
I will be dropping a bike maps update tomorrow to get E. Marginal Way South on the released map, whether Kirkland re-opens the southern Central Kirkland Connector re-opens or not and whether this one other improvement posts their completion notice or not.
I'd REALLY like to get those updates on […]
East Marginal Way bike infrastructure upgrade, two-way bike lane opening tomorrow from Royal Brougham/Atlantic St. down to Horton, with continued temporary shared walk/bike path from Horton down to S. Spokane requiring using a (new) bike crossing at Horton, connecting Waterfront to Spokane Street Trail and West Seattle.
oh hello
guess what's opening tomorrow

New Greater Northshore / MEGMAP bike maps release!
Big updates in Seattle, important WARNING in Kirkland about a closure, lots of changes to non-marked preferred routes in Mountlake Terrace and Briar as people have figured out preferred routes to light rail.
Deets […]
A map of the southern leg of the Central Kirkland Connector near Yarrow Bay/Yarrow Point with a large red callout box showing the segment closed due to emergency sewer work, with detour information. The line will be closed roughly two weeks.
kinda forgot to mention this, oops
this'll be on today's map update
#biking #BikeTooter #seattle #kirkland #GreaterNorthshore
A chunk of maps 2.0.4 in progress, showing new green dots on Alaska Road, 35th Ave W, 236th SW, and ancillary streets in King County which now have more bike traffic.
This whole area is a great example of light rail changing bike usage. Most of these green dot lines weren't worth mapping before, but now they are, because it's how this area gets to the Mountlake Terraice light rail station on bike.
#LightRail […]

236th SW at the Briar/Mountlake Terrace boundary showing green dots (regularly used by cyclists) plus a BRIGHT RED extended dot showing a connection path between two sections of otherwise unconnected road. It's ped/bike open, but not usable by cars.
I feel like this needs a note saying "YES THIS IS ON PURPOSE."
It's a like... 10 metre? maybe? bike/ped only path continuing the right of way.
Southern end of the Cross-Kirkland Connector bike corridor - from NE 52nd Street to 108th Ave NE - CLOSES SEPTEMBER 29th for approximately two weeks for emergency sewer line repair!
There are two detours, one starting rather to the north of the closure area and the other starting immediately at […]
Now I must stress that under normal lighting, from a normal viewpoint, the wrinkly version looks okay. The two don't look all that different. This is me placing lighting in such a way as to exaggerate the wrinkling as much as I can.
So wrinkling's not that big a deal. Regular paper is _actually […]
An eight-sheet map made of standard 11x17" inkjet paper, with many visible ripples which are particularly visible in Lake Washington, but can be seen elsewhere as well.
An eight-sheet megamap made of trimmed 11x18" engineering bond plotter paper, with far fewer ripples, as can particularly be seen in Lake Washington. It's just fundamentally flatter than the standard paper.
A few weeks ago, I ordered a roll of engineering bond plotter paper, hoping I could cut arbitrarily long sheets and have fewer pieces to glue together.
The printer driver appeared to allow this, and that was a complete lie. It quietly freaks out […]
