Very proud of my friend and colleague @DIsaac8 for spearheading @LernersLLP support of such a fantastic cause @BigBikeGiveaway (not to mention all David’s excellent legal work and cycling advocacy and #cyclingsciencesunday must reads!)
We welcome, with gratitude, @LernersLLP as our latest sponsor. Much like ours, their philosophy is simple and kind: “no matter who our clients are, each and every one deserves the best representation possible.” Special thanks to @DIsaac8 for our meaningful connection!

It's been a tough year. Many of us have lost friends and loved ones, we've suffered. I wrote this #poem "Those Moments" in different circumstances, but the message is universal:
In those moments of darkness, speak up, speak out, remember them, honour them.
Those Moments

@jacobdamstra
Those moments
Don’t relent.
And they gnaw;
They are raw.
They’re haunting;
And daunting.
Ever-there;
Everywhere.
Back of mind,
To remind:
