Inner Melbourne - Bicycle Routes - Google My Maps
A bicycle route map for inner Melbourne based on traffic stress (my own judgement).
Green: Off-road
Blue: Low traffic stress or protected lanes
Orange: Medium traffic stress
Red: High traffic stress

I've updated my inner-city bike route map.
It's based on traffic stress and can be saved on your Google Maps app.
Green = Off-road
Blue = Low traffic stress or protected lanes
Orange = Medium traffic stress
Red = High traffic stress
Black = Poor connection

Have a think about backing up your electronic files.
Two copies on different local discs. A third off-site if you're really keen.
Download your email archives, too. Your whole life is in there. Google could cut you off without recourse tomorrow.

DECREE
It is with great sadness that I announce the prohibition of highly processed foods, foods containing artificial sweeteners, and foods containing emulsifiers.
At least for me.
And I may violate my own decree.
Thank you.

I was inside a Woolworths near the entrance and a thin 30 something, clearly a long time substance dependant, threw $100 at me.
I gestured to it as if he'd dropped it but he smirked and left. It became clear as I approached that it was fake. But they'd gone to some effort. Made of plastic and all.

Media Watch went on a tangent tonight on the ABC's apparent lack of coverage of trans issues. Part of the ABC's defence was that it didn't want to cause undue harm. Tbh, I think that's a good approach. Much of this discussion only needs be had between individuals, families, and their doctors.

I've come to Castlemaine which means a barely usable data service. Telstra has a lot of coverage but not a lot of bandwidth.

PECULIAR: I was sitting outside Melbourne Town Hall admin building for about half an hour and gold coins were being flung seemingly out of nowhere onto the footpath. It happened three times while I was there. No idea who was doing it. Flower man and visitor info lady were amused.

I wonder if Flemington Racecourse trains could run via the loop when the Metro Tunnel opens and stop halving the frequency on the Newport corridor? Of course, that may not account for the need to reprioritise drivers.

Free energy is coming! Of course, it's not the "free energy" the crazies talk about because it's from excess solar generation and as we all know, solar is a globalist scam.
Australian households to get free electricity three hours a day
Saying there is enough solar power for everyone in the daytime, the federal government will direct retailers to provide three hours of free power every day to consumers.

Caught the 901 bus to the airport. It's only half hourly on weekends which doesn't connect consistently with trains every 20 minutes at Broadmeadows. This is simple stuff to get right. I was impressed with some of the on-road bus priority, however.
