Semi-regular posting about #CycleCommuting, #PublicTransport and a combination of the two.

Do drivers not think that use of the roads is worth paying for?

"Well I drive 2000 miles a week, that will cost me £____!"

Yeah...that's the point

If you offered me the public transport network of Japan BUT I had to take their food and beverage packaging, I honestly would have to give it some real thought

Taking the whole lane ✔️
Distracted (singing) ✔️
No helmets ✔️
No lights ✔️
No reflective vests ✔️
Riding in a pack ✔️

The textbook radical anti-car cyclists our culture despises.

Anyone who claims that the solution to road safety for cyclists is simply for them to be more skilled and assertive should be required to demonstrate that they are more skilled and assertive on a bicycle than Tour de France Femmes green jersey holder Lorena Wiebes.

No need to be observant in an urban environment folks.
No need to read the road markings.
No need to slow down as you approach a junction.

Technology's got your back 😅
In tight spaces or heavy traffic, it’s not always easy to see who’s near. Active Side Collision Avoidance Support uses radar to detect cyclists or pedestrians on the sides. If someone’s there, it warns you or even steps in to brake if needed so you can keep others safe, even when visibility is low.

#Groenparkeren🌱 wordt steeds meer norm. Meer regenwater 🌧 bereikt op deze manier de bodem. Scheelt in wateroverlast en goed voor bodem🪱🕷 en buurtgroen🌳.

Dit is een mooie variant uit #Leiden. #Klimaatadaptatie💧

If you are caught driving in a cycle lane it should be an immediate 30 day driving ban along with a fine depending on the severity and risk posed to others.

Bitter motorists, you can’t have it both ways with your endless whining “why don’t cyclists use the cycle lane?”.

Parking on zigzags and mounting the pavement.

All to put up or take down the latest advert for McDonald’s.

This could be prevented if ordinary citizens could submit this stuff quickly and simply through an app. It would massively transform our public spaces for the better.

When you open a street up to people - anything can happen! It was fantastic to be out for another beautiful Meet Me On Milwaukee, hosted by @aldermanlaspata.bsky.social! We saw little kids riding their bikes, tandems, strollers, dogs, dining, DJs, and a lot more.

What street should do this next?

The two tests of cycling infrastructure should be

1 - would this be okay for a 12 year old child on their own?

AND

2 - would this be okay for lone woman at night?

If the answer to either of these is NO then it's not adequate.

Active travel is a public health issue.

We really really need politicians at all levels to understand that building decent bike lanes won't just help a few Lycra-clad blokes: it will have a massive impact on people's health long term.

‘Cycleway 1’ Whitmore
Road in Hackney. This amount of motor traffic just can’t safely mix with this amount of cycle traffic so it isn’t safe for kids to cycle to school. It is inexplicable the planned Hoxton LTN won’t address this.

Almost 900 fewer people have been injured on Welsh roads since the default speed limit was lowered from 30 to 20mph two years ago

Casualties on 20 to 30mph roads between July and September 2024 were the lowest for the three month-period since records began in 1979

👏 Evidence-led policy
Nearly 900 fewer people injured since 20mph introduction in Wales
Figures show a 25% reduction in the number of injuries on Wales' roads in the past 18 months.

What if we put cameras on the signs though, just in case?
More speed cameras cut down in Toronto, with Premier Doug Ford appearing to support the vandals, telling the city to get rid of speed cameras and instead put up more signs to slow down drivers.
