Edinburgh, cyclist, cycling without age pilot, cook, gardener, music, trains, canals, climate justice. Can we just accept Tr*ump & M*usk are bawbags and post about nice stuff?
In their court of law it's guilty until proven innocent except if we still you're guilty then your still guilty

Would you care to comment on this Royal Mail van, that looks like it habitually travels the wrong way on Rose St.? (5 secs into video)

Or the black SUV driving the length of the street for no apparent reason?

With SUVs 80% more likely to kill a child, what is real danger here?

Free buses and trams then yeah?

Show your evidence please (opinions do not count as evidence)

No they do have concern. Only when someone tells then cyclist will hurt you though. Death and serious injury is just one of those things they can do nothing about when it’s car drivers. If only someone competent was in charge 🤷

Who’s the fool? The fool or the one who repeats it?

Maybe I’m passed the point now and forever cynica! Hopefully not. High street will be a total disaster for everyone if they build as designed

Designs are for a single direction cycle lane along side the pavement with a kerb. Fully expect it to be parked on once open. Rest of route planned for same through the High St. Elm Row take 2

Taken a few across town for just over a quid. Super quick and easy, much quicker than a bus and that's usually without any safe or dedicated infrastructure - including no floating bus stops. Could be used by everyone if those things were available. So much potential.

They hate pedestrians and walkers. Any excuse to close any of it. They'll try and close it again in the spring for lambing in case walkers or cyclists "disturb" the sheep. SUV's driving to their golf course is apparently fine

BBC victim blaming someone for wearing certain clothes. How very 'reform' of them
