🚲 Helmets on, wheels out, and apparently… scooters too!

Huge thanks to everyone who helped make today’s bicycle safety event such a success — including all of the helmet safety checks!

I’m especially impressed by our Town Board Student Representative, Finlee Driscoll, who organized the event and brought together some great community partners. Thank you to RV&E, Old Skull, and Monroe County STOP-DWI for helping make it happen.

And there were some exciting firsts today: Councilwoman Emily Mischler got on a scooter for the first time, I managed not to crash, and Finley made the whole thing look completely effortless. 😂

So lucky to have Backwoods by Kettle Ridge here in Perinton! It’s the ultimate mood booster! My youngest son climbed the dirt hill and went down the slide until
it closed at dusk - and told me we HAVE to go again.

Fun fact: No cover charge on Thursday nights!

I’m not kidding — SUCH a smooth road! 👏

What’s your favorite road “glow-up” this summer? Drop it in the comments!

And a huge thank you to our Perinton DPW crews who push through all kinds of summer weather to keep our roads looking great — and ready for whatever winter throws at us.

We notice the finished product, but there’s a whole lot of work behind the scenes to get us there. Thank you, DPW!

You had me at stadium seating. 🛹🩷

Let’s geek out about municipal skateparks together for a minute…

This was my first visit back to the McCall, Idaho skatepark since Perinton built ours, and it was a completely different experience. Before, I was just there watching kids have fun. This time, I found myself noticing all the little design details I’d overlooked during years of visiting this spot.

Now… if you’re curious - watch this reel and let me know what you think!😊

More training hikes for my family! 🥾🌲

Last night we logged six miles on the Orange Trail, with a little time on the Blue Trail off Thayer Road and Indian Hill.

It was such a beautiful evening, and even after years of exploring Perinton, there were sections of the trail I’d never been on before.

I’m so grateful for the incredible open space we have here in Perinton. Having miles of trails right in our own backyard is a gift!

If you’re not following Jenn Townsend Perinton Town Supervisor - go hit that “follow” button. I am so impressed how she is actively engaging on social media about issues that are going on in the Town of Perinton. As supervisor, she is there working with town staff, receiving constituent feedback and coordinating with other government agencies FULL-TIME- which gives her a unique perspective on our community. Wondering if the town is thinking about all these e-bikes? Check out her feed.

What are the town supervisor’s thoughts about the landfill? Check out her feed.

There’s a funding crisis with Perinton Ambulance? Check out her feed.

You’ll find a town executive who is making the time to be present, not only in person - but online where we are spending a lot of time too. Plus- she will even respond in some threads - helping promote a civil online dialogue.

If you don’t follow her yet- you’re missing out.

So, I used to think the scariest thing on the canal path was a goose in a bad mood. Turns out I was wrong. It’s e-bikes.

I've been getting a LOT of messages lately on this topic.

These bikes move fast, a lot faster than a regular bicycle, and when you're sharing a path with kids, dog walkers, runners, and families out for a stroll, that speed catches people off guard. I've heard from folks who've had genuine close calls out there, and that's not something I take lightly.

I'm also hearing that a lot of riders, including some younger ones, aren't wearing helmets. And honestly, there's just a lot of confusion right now about what's even allowed. What's okay on the path versus the road, who's supposed to be enforcing what, none of it feels clear right now, and I get why that's frustrating.

I'm actively talking with the village, Monroe County, and the surrounding towns to figure out a shared approach. I don't have a tidy answer for you yet. But I wanted you to know this is very much on my radar, and I'm not sitting on it. More to come as we work through it.
