Here's a well-researched new article on the Riley O'Neil case by Tribune transportation writer Talia Soglin and Madeline Buckley. Please click on the link below to give the paper some pageviews. The Trib reports that the driver had history of traffic infractions, driving with a suspended license, and DUI allegations. The Cook County public defender’s office endorses Safe Streets upgrades to prevent such cases.

A fun time riding the parade with West Town Bikes yesterday. #puertorico #chicago

Yesterday’s ride was dedicated to Palestinian liberation from settler colonialism, apartheid, and genocide. At the same time, we rode to protect our own cycling community.We honored every life lost to vehicular violence and hazardous road design. True solidarity means fighting for safety and self-determination everywhere—from Gaza to our own city blocks.

Yesterday, our Executive Director Amy Rynell spoke with Fox 32 about the death of Riley O'Neil and the need for better biking infrastructure. We're grateful for everyone who turned out for the memorial ride for Riley.

Good to know & understand Chicago bike folks.Once you understand how this grid works, you will never need a map to navigate Chicago again. Chicago has one of the most brilliant, perfectly organized street systems in the entire world. The whole city is laid out like a giant piece of graph paper, all radiating outward from a single downtown intersection: State & Madison (0/0).

So sad. What a tragic loss. Was such a great person. 😢Great to see so many people gathering like this but sad that it’s because of another tragic death Rest in peace Riley O’Neil

Could have been anyone of us. Chicagoans must keep fighting for adequate and safe pedestrian and bicycling infrastructure safety.

A great video Chicago park & transportation folks.We’re grateful (and genuinely excited) to share this deep dive on the Crosstown Trail from Carl Allen / Built World and Cyrus Dowlatshahi. He tells the story of the corridor, why this is such a rare opportunity for Chicago, and what a future trail and linear park could mean for our Northwest Side neighborhoods.

Hundreds of people rode together through Bridgeport to honor Riley O’Neil, a champion of improving road safety who was doored and then fatally struck by a vehicle while biking over the weekend.

Great to see so many people gathering like this but sad that it’s because of another tragic death Rest in peace Riley O’Neil
