A few bits and bobs of Endura cycle clothing in @oxfamgb.bsky.social Rochester. Helmets, shorts liners, socks, overshoes, tops.

If you've had a bike stolen in Avon & Somerset/Bristol check this out... A lot of bikes have been recovered and some reunited with owners already. www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/news/recover...

Young people are often left behind by transport policy decisions, with transport affordability creating barriers to accessing education, work, public services and socialising. Welcome to see the Welsh government recognise this and put in place this national £1 a trip & £3 day ticket bus fare trial.

Ebikes are often seen as enablers, so more people can cycle more. I’d lost the habit of cycling but got an ebike in 2021 to commute 13km to/from work. The confidence, fitness & knowledge I’ve developed on the ebike have now enabled me to revert to a regular bike. I’ve ridden my ebike once this yr.

It might need a wash. #BikesOnTrains

Another #BikesOnTrains day.

What if Network SouthEast lasted until the class 70 came about, would there have been passenger versions? 💭💭 Who knows? But I put a class 70 into NSE colours regardless 😁

You’ve been murdered. Who do you want on the case?

Nice bimble about on the Bromptons with Mrs KRG. Great way to run some errands on a bright, chilly day.

Public toilets are critical for public health and accessibility. 🚽 Great to see the British Toilet Association launch a campaign for public toilets to be a legal requirement. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

If only the UK MoD did 15mph speed limits ... oh, I almost forgot, they do.

How will @graveshambc.bsky.social differentiate option 1 between:- A: "Parking is too cheap & too much of it, pavement parking is a problem, parking restrictions need enforcement" B: "Parking should be free, need more of it, allow more pavement parking, how dare you ticket me for parking on DYLs"

A mobile bicycle-trailer pop-up library ... with hammocks. Genius.

Hi Everyone, I know this is a stretch, but is anyone aware of a local farm in the Medway (UK) area who would give a guided tour of what goes into food production?

It will soon be Spring.

Highly recommend Rambles in Lincolnshire - an exhibition of around 100 original railway posters mainly promoting tourism in the county. It’s on at Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre until 5 May 2025 and part of #railway200. #railwayheritage #grimsby

"I’m in the fresh air more. I used to travel in my van. The bike can take everything I need. I love using it and it saves so much time.” That's Sarah, Brighton-based photographer and skateboard coach, who uses her Tern GSD for local journeys - transporting her equipment around the city. 1/2

Another trip to Faversham and look who I bumped into! Said pics of his private #bike had been appreciated here, to which he replied "Oh you should get shots of Tell's, down the market - he gets it all in the back of his. Goods, stands, marquee, the lot" Sound businessmen, f'sure! #bikesky

Very sad news indeed There has been railway engineering at the Doncaster Works ‘The Plant’ since 1853. Many world famous locomotives were built, indeed born here including ‘Flying Scotsman’ and ‘Mallard’ The ghosts will be restless in the sheds tonight… #Doncaster #Yorkshire

Coming soon to the Southeastern Network. Network South East is reborn with 465908 repainted into NSE livery and doesn’t it look stunning 🙌🏻🔥
