I think something non cyclists don't quite understand is the amount of mental exhaustion one feels after biking in car-heavy environment. It's just constant vigilance.

This great @cyclinguk.bsky.social article by the fab @lauralaker.bsky.social is worth a repost. Whilst the NCN network is incredible already, it's not enough. It's awful in some areas, and completely absent in others, yet super in others. www.cyclinguk.org/cycle-magazi...

Last night we held our first social for people who cycle everyday journeys and who would like to connect with more local people! A great meetup in the pub; lovely to see new faces too! Going forward we will hold monthly socials on the third Wednesday. Keep an eye out for our teddy and join us 💚

Yet it's possible (and generally accepted it seems) in most of our busy urban areas to park in a loading bay for well over 15 minutes with the engine running just to eat lunch. Seriously, this is 'normal' everyday behaviour. How do we get people to understand the problem and change their actions?

👏🏼 Excellent thread by the excellent @lauralaker.bsky.social. So sensible and analytical that I wonder if the recommendations will be implemented or hidden in the tempting long grasses of inaction. Hoping Heidi Alexander & Department of Transport have read the report and will react accordingly.

As the author, I’m immensely proud of this report. But mainly I hope people read it and take notice. This is about the rise in ‘fake e-bikes’, and what’s driving it appgcw.org/resources/in...

The results are in. The vast majority of Londoners and major businesses back our exciting plans for Oxford Street, so I'm pleased to confirm that we will now be moving ahead as quickly as possible.

Fewer cars every day would be even better ! The number of cars with just one person in them is ridiculous.

Another successful car free day in Lambeth this time Atlantic Road reimagined! Thanks to Lambeth’s Healthy Neighbourhoods and Big Shift teams we were allowed to imagine what these spaces could be like without cars. Thanks also to Just Vibez & the Brixton BID who put on this fab family event.

Remember this? “Paris voters opted in a referendum to close 500 more city streets to cars, making way for pedestrians, bikers & greenery. The plan…will expand on a green push by Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social that has already seen 300 streets planted and cleared of cars since 2020.” Leadership.

This plane crash is utterly horrendous but in the UK alone nearly 6x this number of people are killed on the roads every year. If a Boeing 787 was going down over the UK every 2 months we’d never accept it. Why do we accept it on the roads?

A highlight of Velo-City has been chatting to the brilliant women working in cycling. @sgoodyear.bsky.social and Cycling UK's Monica Scigliano being two excellent examples

Cycling should feel liberating, not intimidating - but too many women are missing out because they don't think it feels safe. Will you ask your MP to support Cycling UK's 'My ride. Our right' campaign to give more women the freedom to cycle? action.cyclinguk.org/page/171597/...

I’m at the Empowering Women’s Mobility session at Velo City. The Barcelona region has done really interesting work to understand the way women cycle: speed, duration, frequency, routes, reasons, time of day, and so on.

Excellent thread showing very clearly why vehicles with high fronts are so lethal. I stood in front of a parked Range Rover last night and the bonnet height was at my shoulder level - well above my centre of gravity. Cars with high bonnets should have no place on city streets.

🚨BREAKING The Scottish Government has recalled Flamingo Land's application to build a mega-resort on the shores of Loch Lomond! After they initially refused to act, over 50,000 of you joined our campaign and emailed the planning minister. They now must reject the application and save Loch Lomond.
