Last week’s Wednesday ride was epic. It wasn’t a hard rain, but it was constant. The water dripped from our helmets and sprayed up behind us.\n\nOtherwise it was a normal Wednesday ride. We chatted and joked and enjoyed each other’s company and our usual ten miles. Back at Sociable, we got BOGO ciders and chatted some more. Just a typical Wednesday night with Northeast’s best people.\n\nCome be one of them tonight. Meet us in the Sociable parking lot. Rollout at 6pm. Easy fun ride. We’d love to hang out with you whenever you’re ready to hang out with us. (No rain forecast for tonight.)\n\n#MplsByBike\n#MinnesotaOutdoors\n#SocialRide\n#ActiveTransportation\n#Humanity_Shots

You may know James Brenner from such giant iron and glass sculptures as the backstop at the 22nd Ave Park (formerly Jackson Square Park), or the iron and glass pieces on the corner of 22nd and Monroe. Or even the massive iron and glass ring in the traffic circle by the Mall of America.\n\nBrenner’s works use common materials, but he still manages to build pieces that are recognizably “Brenner.”\n\n“Passages” is another classic Brenner that does as much to shape space as anything he has made. Come check it out with us on Sunday morning at 10am.\n\nThe Hook & Ladder “campus” features a ton of art actually (see photos) and has the JROW Sculpture Park right next door.

I have to say I am utterly charmed by the owners and staff of Northeast’s newest neighbor. Umami Sushi has taken over where Market BBQ left off on Lowry Ave a block off of University and we’re excited to welcome them to the neighborhood.\n\nUmami has a long and storied history that began before their first restaurant opened in LA over 30 years ago. This family brought Umami to Colorado, then Wyoming, and even Williston, ND. The journey has finally delivered them to Northeast Minneapolis.\n\nIn the words of the owners:\n\nWe fell in love with this city and the lifestyle because [Mpls has] a little bit of everything. It’s like an LA but smaller and the people here are nicer.\n\nI don’t know about the LA stuff, but I know about the people. Give Umami a try. They are very proud of their in-house sauces, all made fresh with the family recipes.\n\nJoin us at Umami for Coffee (Outside) Sunday at 10am. We’ll hang out in front until they open at 11am for lunch.\n\nAlso join us TONIGHT for Jacle, a Halloween bike tour of the most grizzly places in Northeast’s past and present. Rollout at 6:30pm from the alley behind Recovery Bike Shop.\n\nPHOTO: Bea! We often have to reject great bikes because of frame damage. But Bea rescued this All-City Big Block and rebuilt it (despite a dented top tube) into a daily rider.\n\nStandard reminders:\n\nCoffee (Outside) is about getting to know Northeast’s people and places.

Coffee (Outside) on Sunday will be at this bike rack, which is amazing! Meet us at 10am in front of Ichiddo Ramen at 1st Ave NE and University. And then marvel at this beautiful piece of bicycle infrastructure.\n\nThis bike rack is actually a work of art.

We’ll embark from the Sociable parking lot in full daylight and ride until it’s completely dark. Bring your lights and maybe a friend because riders get BOGO cider after the ride.\n\nNice easy ride so we can chat. Ten miles. Takes a little more than an hour. Expect good people to hang with before, during, and after.\n\nTechnically next week will be peak fall colors, but the leaves are already gorgeous. It almost doesn’t get better than these fall rides.\n\n#IBikeNE\n#ExploreByBike\n#MinnesotaOutdoors\n#SocialRide\n#EatDrinkDishMpls

Introducing JACLE the haunted bike ride. Halloween night. With stops at the grizzliest places in Northeast. So awful, it comes with a trigger warning.\n\nMeet at sunset in the alley behind Recovery Bike Shop. Rollout as soon as it’s truly dark (6:30). Light up your bike. Costumes welcome but not required. Bonus for dressing up your bike!\n\nThe ride will be easy but the night will be horrible. (No jump scares, but you will be kinda freaked out after this.) Ends at the grave behind the John Cook House where we will join the Victorian Halloween party: bonfire, treats, tricks, and surprises.\n\nMore at sparcle.bike\n(link-in-bio)\n\n#NortheastMinneapolis\n#ExploreByBike\n#HauntedHouse\n#HorrorPoster

Change is the only constant. It’s coming either way. If there is no tool for change, change will just break stuff.\n\nJust because you build a dam, doesn’t mean the river stops coming. There has to be a way for the water to flow or the dam will break and there will be uncontrolled destruction. Voting is a way to let the raging waters flow as a consistent stream.\n\nIf people don’t have a say in their own fate, they will get frustrated and start blaming. On a long enough timeline that frustration will boil over. But give people a say in society, and they will take responsibility for their own destiny. (They will blame themselves.)\n\nIf you don’t want violent revolution, you need voting (or religion). Voting is societally approved revolution. We all agree to a tiny revolution every couple of years and nobody gets hurt. It’s the steam release valve.\n\nWoe to the country that stifles the voice of the people. That country continually moves toward violence.\n\nVote. Vote now. Vote on Nov 3. Coffee (Outside) 10am Sunday at the early voting station (which will be closed while we are there):\n\n980 E Hennepin, Minneapolis\n\nFor more details:\nhttps://vote.minneapolismn.gov/voters/vote-early-in-person/\n(link-in-bio)\n\nSee you Sunday!\n\nAs always…\n- Free yoga at 9am at the bike shop with @Rachel.cro\n- NE Community Ride from Coffee (Outside) at 11ish.\n\n#EarlyVoting\n#LifeByBike\n#Activism\n#WhatCanIdo\n#MeetMinneapolis

Your last Open Streets of the year is this Sunday in Uptown.

We’re getting into fall colors territory now. With temps in the upper 60s / low 70s, it doesn’t get much better than cruising around the city with good people. Hope to see you tonight!\n\nWe’re still doing about ten miles at an easy pace.

Join us tonight (and every Wednesday) at 6pm for a lovely group ride starting at Sociable Cider Werks. Easy ride with chill riders.

Tare Market has put out a call for help. This summer Minneapolis has been reconstructing the streets that provide access to their business (and several other businesses) and that means the flow of customers has been turned into a trickle.\n\nThis is how construction works in our city (and most American cities). Every few years we decimate our business districts with road construction and then we charge them for it. Construction in Minneapolis is SLOW. A small project like this generally takes an entire summer (the road construction season) while other countries condense similar projects down to a few weeks. Other cities actually subsidize businesses during the slow down.\n\nCondensing the construction timeline keeps local businesses from going bankrupt. It preserves jobs. It protects communities. It costs more and so Minneapolis doesn’t do it.\n\nFYI, Tare Market is a packaging-free business. In a world where just 9% of plastics are recycled (and badly), owner/operator Amber decided to make a better way. Not only is Tare Market making it easy for our community to Reduce and Reuse, they’re also setting the example for the rest of us to follow.\n\nCoffee (Outside) 10am Sunday. Address is 945 Broadway Street NE, Suite 103\nMinneapolis, MN 55413\n\nBut I’m not going to tell you how to get there. I want you to work for it. I want you to have to fight through the construction. I want you to see the craziness that Tare Market’s customers have had to deal with to get to Tare Market (and @bauhausbrewlabs and @dogwoodcoffee and and @padraigsbrewing ) and a whole host of other small local businesses that are all choking to death while Minneapolis has been turning one of our last walkable streets into another street only for cars (but that’s another story).\n\nCoffee (Outside) is just a hang with neighbors and friends. There are treats to share. Hope you can make it!\n\nFeel free to join us for yoga at the bike shop at 9am. Easy class. We even have mats to borrow.\n\nAnd we launch the NE Community Ride from Coffee (Outside) each week at about 11am.

Group ride to Open Streets, Nicollet edition. For one day only Nicollet will be closed to cars (Lake St to 46th) which will make it open to people and give us a taste of what a walkable city could be like. Open Streets is a rare opportunity to enjoy one of Mpls busiest streets without the threat of traffic. 16 blocks will be walkable (and bikeable) for one day. Note: other cities (like Mexico City) do this weekly and at a much larger scale.\n\nThe bike bus group ride leaves Recovery Bike Shop at 11am Saturday, but you can join the ride wherever it’s convenient. Check out the route map. Station times are estimates. And Open Streets is the best!\n\n#OpenStreets\n#Urbanism\n#BikeBus\n#Woonerf\n#MeetMinneapolis

We roll out from the Sociable parking lot at 6pm every Wednesday. Everyone welcome. Easy pace. About ten miles. No one dropped. And free cider at Sociable.\n\nDon’t forget to charge your lights!

The Northrup King Building campus is the largest art complex in Minnesota and it is just about my favorite thing about Minneapolis. What you most need to know is that it is chock full of passionate people doing the thing that they are passionate about. I cannot more highly recommend that you go hang out with these people.\n\nBut that’s not the point of this post, because most of those people will be inside and we want you to hang out with us at Coffee (Outside)!\n\nAt just over a hundred years old, the 10-building facility has just completed another one of its massive metamorphosis. The main building was recently turned into a butterfly. (Just kidding)\n\nFormerly the Northrup King seed company, the site became host to hundreds of artist studios over the last couple decades under the guidance of Debbie Woodward. But two years ago Artspace Projects, the company that now manages the massive facility, broke ground on development of residential apartments on the campus. Those income adjusted artist lofts are now open and full of families living and working at the Northrup King. That development also included new bicycle access through the campus as well as other public areas that have never really been open before. Come and enjoy them with us!\n\nJoin us 10am Sunday in the “back” of the Northrup King building for Coffee (Outside). You can enter the campus at 18th (Great Northern Greenway) and Monroe and then head toward the water tower.\n\nYou can explore the campus any time. The doors are open during business hours and you’ll find open studios at those times. But Art-a-Whirl in May and Art Attack Nov 13-15 are the absolute best times to visit. The studios are open and brimming with activity. This is a must do.\n\nFeel free to join us for yoga at the bike shop at 9am. Easy class. We even have mats to loan out.\n\nAnd we launch a NE Community Ride from Coffee (Outside) each week at about 11am. This one is about making our streets feel comfortable for people by being a presence. \n\nIt’s all free, open to all, and created to activate our neighborhood and foster community.\n\n#IBikeNE\n#PublicArt\n#LocalHistory\n#Woonerf\n#ActiveTransportation

Eyes on the street (people) make our streets feel safer and more comfortable. So every Sunday we ride as a group to activate Northeast’s neighborhood streets.

One of the longest running continuous group rides in Minneapolis and arguably the best led.

This is the only picture I have of Chad (and Deborah) and I didn’t even take it. Chad is a doer. Chad makes stuff happen. He helped build the western set that became this year’s Disco Cowboy theme. And that’s just one example. Sparcle could not have been what it was without Chad.\n\n#NortheastMinneapolis\n#MainStreet\n#StoreFront\n#PublicArt

Have you ever actually been inside the Nicollet Island Pavilion? Well it won’t happen on Sunday because it’s not called Coffee (Inside).\n\nFor some reason the parks are reevaluating the operations at the Nicollet Island Pavilion which is a Mpls Parks property being operated by a private company (which pays rent to the parks). The Pavilion is available for weddings and other events. Nobody is actually unhappy with the arrangement. But it’s always good to take time and reflect?\n\nIn any case, the Parks wants to know how residents and visitors would like to see the Pavilion used? So think about it.\n\nMaybe the Pavilion could be a public market. Maybe there could be a restaurant like Sea Salt at the Minnehaha Falls or Bread & Pickle at Lake Harriet (but not like Pimento at Bde Maka Ska). Maybe it should be a hotel. Maybe it’s just fine how it is.\n\nFYI, the Nicollet Island Pavilion exists because someone thought it would be a good place for a boiler factory in 1897.\n\nIf you have some thoughts, I think you should email them to…\ninfo@eastbankmpls.org\n\nEither way come to Coffee (Outside) on Sunday at 10am. It’s actually just about the most gorgeous spot in the city. And it’s on an island!\n\nAnd you know we’re doing free yoga at 9am at the bike shop. And the Community Ride meanders around Northeast starting at 11am-ish after Coffee (Outside). Have a great weekend, everyone!\n\n#MeetMinneapolis\n#ExploreByBike\n#MinnesotaOutdoors\n#MississippiRiver

Going to Open Streets Broadway this weekend? Get on the bike bus. Group ride from Recovery Bike Shop to Broadway. Jump on anywhere along the way. We’ll pick you up!

Jason (pictured) got married at Bauhaus before he started working there. That’s how much this place is a part of his life.\n\nWe almost lost Bauhaus this summer. Rather, we lost Bauhaus and got a new Bauhaus back. There’s something to morn there, but plenty to celebrate. And we’re super grateful to have a business like Bauhaus in our neck of the woods. Look for their events calendar (Octoberfest, Trivia Night, etc.).\n\nIt really is a new thing with some cool changes. And it’s the same old (old) space. Bauhaus is one of the best reuses of Northeast’s old industrial spaces.\n\nSo help us welcome the new (and old) crew and the new effort to the neighborhood on Sunday at 10am. We’ll do our usual Coffee (Outside) standing around chatting thing until 11:00 when Bauhaus actually opens on Sundays.\n\nThen we’ll immediately leave (not immediately) for our regular NE Community Ride at 11:00ish.\n\nAnd please do come for yoga at Recovery Bike Shop before all of that. 9am. It’s free. @halenanne is leading class this week and it’s a great way to be nice to yourself and kick off a new week.\n\nNote: The La Troquita Del Sur food truck residence continues on Sunday at Bauhaus. Check out their brunch menu (which includes a breakfast burrito!).\n\n#ThirdSpace\n#Brewery\n#EatDrinkDishMpls\n#MuralsOfInstagram

I don’t know of a more incredible backyard garden in NE Mpls than Ro & Sarah’s. And that’s saying a lot because my friends host seed exchanges, harvest parties, and garden tour bike rides.\n\nSarah & Ro have generously volunteered to let us bring Coffee (Outside) to see the splendor they have created.\n\nJoin us at 10am Sunday for Coffee (Outside) at Sarah & Ro’s little Eden:\n\n415 4th St NE\nMinneapolis\n\nNow I am not a garden person. I am barely a vegetable person. And it doesn’t get nerdier than this as far as gardening is concerned. But I was blown away by the knowledge, commitment, breadth, and depth (and height) of their project. I can’t even say “yard” anymore because they are managing four properties immediately adjacent to their house. This is really incredible. This is so good for Northeast. We’re talking habitat, micro climates, storm water mitigation, food production, pest control, passive solar, all of the things! These two are setting a fantastic example and I’d love for you to see it.\n\nAlso…\n9am yoga with @rachel.cro at Recovery Bike Shop\n11am-ish NE Community Ride after Coffee (Outside)\n\n#BestOfNEMpls\n#PollinatorGarden\n#Monarch\n#MinnesotaOutdoors\n#Urbanism

Thanks to an amendment by Council Members Elliott Payne and Michael Rainville, the Central Ave Art Walk got a much needed vote of confidence Thursday as the Central Ave reconstruction project goes back to MNDoT.\n\nPayne @elliottforward1 and Rainville @rainvilleward3 (and their amazing staff), who have both been very supportive of the Art Walk, made sure MNDoT would understand that the lines on the street matter a great deal to the people of Northeast Minneapolis. Their amendment calls for “MNDoT to acknowledge that this part of Central Avenue is not a highway but a dense urban arts district.” The amendment speaks to the Art Walk specifically and calls for the inclusion of input from the Arts District and the greater community. This is a big step. This is a win.\n\nThank you to everyone who has sent emails or made phone calls or showed up for Coffee (Outside) to advocate for the Central Ave Art Walk over the last two years. The work has a long way to go, but we have been working to get to this exact point for a long time. And we are being heard! This is a real win for the Arts District, for our neighbors, and for Minneapolis.\n\nrecovery.bike/artwalk\n\n#BestOfNEMpls\n#MeetMinneapolis\n#MainStreet\n#PublicArt\n#UrbanDesign

President Jackson (not pictured) was a racist, a misogynist, and a profiteer. I can only think of one president worse than this guy.

It’s just nicer to be in the shop when Elli is here.\n\n#NortheastMinneapolis\n#PublicArt\n#LocalHistory\n#CityPlanning

It was a heck of a ride last week. Three flat tires, one bloody knee, and a scraped elbow. Lots of starts and stops.\n\nBut we did get this awesome photo!\n\nAnd it was pretty much all fine. Actually it was kind of lovely. It’s a no drop ride. So when there is a flat, we all pull over, check to see if there is any way we can help, then back to the conversation to wait for things to get back on track.\n\nWe got back to Sociable a little later than usual last week, but the cider was still cold, the people were still great.\n\nThanks for your patience, everyone. But mostly, thanks for a great evening. These long summer days with all of you are really the best. See you tonight!\n\n(If you’re joining for the first time, rollout from the Sociable parking lot at 6pm. Looking forward to seeing you.)\n\n#MeetMinneapolis\n#ExploreByBike\n#SocialRide\n#Infrastructure\n#ActiveTransportation

It’s true. The confluence of our 1,000th rider of the year and our 200th Coffee (Outside) of all time has occurred at the same time. And this is the crew that made it happen.\n\nWe focus a lot on the community outside of the bike shop. But let me brag about the people inside the shop for a minute. This is the first time Recovery Bike Shop has sold 1,000 bikes on its own. This is the first time a Reco crew has built 1,000 bikes in 12 months.\n\nThey did it by working together. These people look out for each other. They pick up the slack when someone is sick. They come up front to help each other when it’s busy. They ask questions and give answers without judgement. They quality check each other’s bikes and make each other smarter along the way.\n\nThis crew is made of some of the best people I know.\n\nIn 21 years I’ve never been more proud of what we do. I’ve never enjoyed this job more. I’ve never liked being at the shop as much as I do now. This place, this old bike shop, these people, they set a good example. They make this a healthy place to be.\n\nThank you to everyone that supported us this year. Thank you to everyone that rides in Minneapolis.\n\nIn honor of this milestone, we will be celebrating Coffee (Outside) at Recovery Bike Shop Sunday at 10am.\n\nIf you get here by 9am, you can join our weekly yoga class (free). And at around 11am we’ll bike around the neighborhood after Coffee (Outside). Looking forward to seeing you!\n\nPHOTOS: Swipe for a smattering of the many MANY places we have enjoyed in Northeast Minneapolis over the last four years of Sundays. Thanks to everyone that has joined us, enjoyed NE with us, and made Sunday mornings sacred for me.\n\n#MplsByBike\n#NortheastMinneapolis\n#MeetMinneapolis\n#LifeByBike\n#WhatCanIdo

Here’s some before and after teasers from our work last week. The house has been overgrowing for most of ten years. We actually discovered two sidewalks and a set of stairs.\n\nThis week: permits!

Looking forward to today’s ride and whatever Andrew has in store for this week’s route. \n\nBe at Sociable Cider in time for a 6pm rollout. If you haven’t joined us before, this is an easy no-drop group ride with just as much chatting as pedaling. Everyone welcome.\n\nAnd thanks as always to our ride marshals that show us the way, keep watch at intersections, and make sure the ride can stick together.\n\n#MplsByBike\n#SocialRide\n#UrbanCycling\n#BicycleInfrastructure\n#MplsSkyline
