The street art in Oklahoma City is so world class, it became part of our flagship tour. 🚲🦅 It's the #1 tour in OKC according to TripAdvisor. #OKHereWeGo #SeeOKC – at Oklahoma City, OK

On Polk Street in Houston, someone posted a fake speed limit sign that doubled the speed limit to 60mph. No one noticed. People didn’t actually drive 60mph. The sign was quickly replaced, but this shows a deeper truth: signs don’t change behavior. Design does.
Photo of a 60mph street sign and text that reads "This sign" with an arrow pointing to the sign, "is a sign that signs alone don't make a street safer."

🧵After 7 incredible years of connecting people to Oklahoma City’s hidden gems on two wheels, it’s time to close this chapter. Ride OKC was inspired by a bike tour my wife, Ashley, & I took early in our relationship. We turned that spark into something bigger than we imagined.

If no buyer steps forward by March 14, 2025, we’ll begin closing the business and selling our bikes and equipment. This decision wasn’t easy, but I’m so proud of what we accomplished together.

Thank you to everyone who rode with us, supported us, or waved and smiled as we pedaled by. Oklahoma City is a beautiful place, and I hope Ride OKC helped you see it in a new way. Here’s to the next adventure and to keeping the wheels turning. Ryan & Ashley #SeeOKC #RideOKC

A new 3.3-mile bike route is now open in NE OKC. The lane connects neighborhoods such as Capitol View, Springlake, and Culbertson to resources such as Metro Tech’s Springlake Campus, Homeland and the MAPS 3 Health & Wellness Center. okc.gov/Home/Components/News…

Last Fall we were invited to lead a history bike tour with @OKCArchitecture. One of our favorite notable stops, the Kee Residence, is a rare example of Dutch South African colonial architecture designed by G.W. Van Meter and built in 1907.

Clearly our nerdery was out in full force while speaking about some of the striking architectural features because the next day a tour participant sent us this postcard dated August 27, 1912. See it on & more on our Art & Architecture Tour at rideokc.com

Some new protected bike infrastructure in @CityOfOKC! A pretty sweet half-mile you might say. More to come. Villa between NW 23rd and 30th, along with a neighborhood connector I've been waiting a decade for. Reader, I saw this and teared up with joy.

On the other side of the street, a similar photo of fresh crosswalk, ADA-,compliant curb cut for sidewalk access, flex-post protected bike lane next to a car traffic lane.

View from the bike lane with cones and a construction vehicle ahead. The grass to the side is sloped upward, and the white of fresh-paved sidewalk can be seen gently grading down from the higher neighborhood to meet up with the bike lane further ahead.

Photo looking back at where the new graded sidewalk meets with the bike lane. Construction vehicles and cones are obstructing them as they were still a work in progress.
