Saskatoon Cycles advocates for a Saskatoon where cycling is a viable, year-round mode of transportation that is safe, convenient, and comfortable for all ages, confidence levels and abilities. saskatooncycles.org
This is not an accurate framing of the Millar/51st conversation.
The only thing that stands to be compromised here is safety itself.
If business is "all about safety" they should support the changes without reservation.

A collage of cyclists and cycling pictures taken during Saskatoon's Winter BYXE Week, February 7 - 15, 2026.
Thank you, Saskatoon, for a great Winter BYXE ("bikes") Week!!
Cyclists of all ages took part in the Scavenger Hunt, Bike to Work Day, Social Media contest, and our slow rolls. Businesses donated prizes and staffed commuter stations. It was a show of community.
Stay tuned for Spring BYXE Week! 😀
Our Strategic Alliance with Saskatoon Cycles @saskatooncycles.org began when Chris taught CAN-BIKE cycling education. We have a foundation of legitimate cycling education and found 🚲 friends. 🛡️🌿 #SaskatoonCycles #CANBIKE #YXE #Sustainability #AlbertaBikeSwap #StrategicAlliance #SafeCycling
It's the final day of Winter BYXE Week 2026, but there are still activities afoot until BYXE concludes!

Cycle infrastructure in the Netherlands.
The cycleway continues across the side road, clearly signalling that drivers must give way. At the roundabout, both the cycleway and pedestrian crossings have priority, so motorists yield again.
Simple design, clear rules, safer streets.
Thursday, Feb. 12 is Bike to Work Day 2026! 😀❄️🚲
A bounty of friendliness, hot drinks, and tasty snacks await your commute to work, school, or play on Bike to Work Day!

"We may be tilting toward spring, but we aren't there yet.
No one knows that better than your neighbourhood winter cyclist. Sarah Robbins joins Saskatoon Morning to talk about the joys of #wintercycling."

The bollard hasn’t moved a single inch. Total domination.

Thanks to the roughly 60 people who took part in Toronto's solidarity ride for Alex Pretti, as well as to the over 100 other cities around the world who also hosted rides. Here's a video I recorded as the ride passed by Queen's Park. #BikeTO #BikeSky #TOpoli #VikingBiking #StopICE
A bike protest for Alex Pretti in NYC
Didn’t get great pics bc I can’t bike with one hand but the NYC ride for Alex Pretti was huge—this is the back! My favorite part was biking through another protest and all of us cheering for each other
On January 31, thousands gathered in Minneapolis for the Ride Together, Stand Together bike ride honoring Alex Pretti, who was an avid cyclist and outdoorsman.

Strong turnout for Austin's Alex Pretti memorial bike ride. The mood was mostly somber, interspersed with protest chants. Abolish ICE.

Art of circles around flowing text: the flowing text reads “This is how change happens” and inside pairs of circles it reads “our actions are working/they are not enough” “nothing we do is sufficient/everything we do matters” “we must be strategic/we must operate on multiple fronts simultaneously” and “time is of the essence/we have to work for the long haul”
I think about this basically every day now.

An old-timey, Wild West styled "wanted" poster for "snirt" or "brown snow", featuring a front bicycle wheel in front of some sandy, dirty slush in a Saskatoon winter.
Winter's here, so be on the lookout for "snirt" (snow dirt)!
AKA "brown snow", AKA "brown sugar", we mean that no good mix of snow, dirt, sand, and/or salt that is loose and slushy and can cover icy patches underneath.
It can be dangerous.
Have fun but be vigilant. Enjoy the adventure!
Explore winter cycling with us at Ice Cycle 2026!
We'll have demo fat bikes from Bike Doctor, experts from Bruce's, great amenities, a slow roll group ride, refreshments, and prizes!
