This just in on #DunsLane, video showing segregated bike paths on both sides of the road in @rideleicester.bsky.social helping to move pupils and staff to #CastlemeadAcademy #BrookmeadAcademy. Some @dmu.ac.uk wags have renamed the street too.

Have you ever seen a bike lane sweeper - pulled behind a bike?

Volunteers in Kirkland have a new tool that attaches to the back of an e-bike. It's good for protected bike lanes, sidewalks, and narrow trails.

Side note. Adult daughter used the @rideleicester.bsky.social e~bike loan for a month, she was worried about what happened next, but with a
£300 voucher towards a new bike, she acquired a £600 #Batribike from #CommunityCycles. She bought the gear, & cycled on Tuesday & Friday in #StormClaudia

Not ideal my son now going to primary school in Oadby. It's a trek from Coalville. Today I parked 'my' side of Leicester and cycled the rest of the way on the excellent @rideleicester.bsky.social infra. You just need to sort out the A6 now! (You can plug your consultation in the replies)
