Bikers on Sabo Bridge amid Canadian wildfire smoke, Minneapolis

Cyclists ride across the Martin Olav Sabo Bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, under a sky obscured by smoke from Canadian wildfires. Opened in 2000, the bridge spans Interstate 35W, connecting the Seward and Phillips neighborhoods and serving as a crucial link for pedestrians and cyclists. Its construction was part of an initiative to enhance non-motorized transportation and mend communities previously divided by the highway. The bridge continues to function as a vital component of the city's active transportation network, with this day's cyclists demonstrating its ongoing utility despite the environmental conditions affecting visibility and air quality.
