Let’s hope the sun is shining on the 23rd March, and we have a beautiful day for the ride. Get your cosmic costumes at the ready! 💫

Join the next #KidicalMassLond family bike ride on Sun 23 March 11am. Start outside the National Theatre, ending Bloomsbury. #Hackney feeder ride at 10am and others from your local area. Theme: Make space for cycling Dress code: intergalactic💫👽🚀 @kidicalmasslond.bsky.social @ibikelondon.bsky.social

I totally agree with The Times’ view here. It’s time to reclaim our streets so that children can be active and gain independence. More councils should close off streets to encourage outdoor games www.thetimes.com/article/b792...

This is happening TONIGHT! Please join if you can as these deaths are NOT ACCEPTABLE!

Check out our short video about Worcester’s Kidical Mass today. Despite grim weather, it was BRILLIANT. There’s so many people who want to re-imagine how our cities look, and who think the way we’ve designed out independently mobility for young people is so wrong. #kidicalmass #bikeworcester

“Grassroots organisations, social entrepreneurs, academics and artists have been beating the drum for a renewed recognition of the importance of play in a good childhood - and a good adulthood, too.” @nestauk.bsky.social www.nesta.org.uk/feature/futu...

“It's amazing how pollution has dropped in #Paris in 15 years. @annehidalgo.bsky.social has filled the city with bike-lanes & not only has she reduced pollution by 40% but she’s also been re-elected.” Trading car space for green space, bike space, kid space…trading pollution for people. Good trade.

Cities are currently discussing the "problem of ebikes".

📢 Disappointing court news today, but the fight for safer streets continues! With support from schools, GPs, Met Police & TfL, our legal team advises there are grounds for appeal. Can you help us raise £30k? www.crowdjustice.com/case/save-ou...

It’s great to see so many submitting evidence to the APPG Cycling & Walking inquiry from the perspective of children and young people; we know @cyclesprog.bsky.social and @playingout.bsky.social have too. Get it right for kids and families and it’s right for many. And that means infrastructure.

“The most exciting form of transportation technology is more than 100 years old — and it’s probably sitting in your garage. It’s the bicycle.” The vehicle of the future (& the present) has 2 wheels, Via @WIRED (2018): Still accurate. #multimodalcities #driverlesscars www.wired.com/story/vehicl...

Passionate about creating safe and healthy London streets? Check out our new healthy street resource page 👇. This shows you how to find & use school travel data for your borough or neighbourhood to make the case for #schoolstreets and #streetsforkids. www.solvetheschoolrun.org/healthystree...

As the end of November approaches.. we’re celebrating the Autumn joy from Our #schoolstreet. After 5 years of terrible congestion & road danger, the school run is now wonderful. 4 ANPRs filter 3 roads, prioritising the area for the thousands walking & cycling, not the hundreds driving.

We're campaigning for families to have safe, green, clean and convenient school runs. From actual school buses to bike buses, we'd love school runs to look more like this 👇 Find out more, and sign up to our newsletter here: solvetheschoolrun.org #saferoutes #activetravel #healthystreets

Newham Council's Low Traffic Neighbourhood for the West Ham Park area (near to the Old Spotted Dog Ground) has started. There is now no through traffic on four roads, the nearest being part of Ham Park Road, which runs alongside West Ham Park itself. More info 👇 www.newham.gov.uk/downloads/fi...

Don’t have a cargo bike? This year, thanks to @zeroemissions.bsky.social you can get your #TreeByBike delivered for free from Columbia Road. 9am to 3pm on the 1st, 8th and 15th Dec! 👀 @thwheelers.bsky.social @eastendkids.bsky.social @hackneylcc.bsky.social @pedalme.bsky.social 🌲 🌲 🌲 🚲 🚲 🚲 🌲 🌲

19 schools in Bath and North East Somerset Council responded positively when asked if they wanted a #schoolstreet 🙌 Let's get on with them! P.s. We currently have none in BANES but a trial for 1 school has been promised within this budget yr

Great to tell people all about what @cyclesprog.bsky.social has got to offer to families looking to cycle at Future of Transport event organised by @reclaimourbuses.bsky.social 🙌 Lots of chat about school streets, #BikeBus, #KidicalMass and better cycling infrastructure

How could I forget to mention cargo bikes and play streets? Both wonderful tools for more fun, cleaner air and an easy way to keep active 😍 @playingout.bsky.social

Taken today in Hoxton West Low Traffic Neighbourhood where the LTN has given parents confidence to safely ride 3 kids to school by cargo bike. We urgently need more LTNs (including Hoxton East) @sarahwoodberrydown.bsky.social @hackneycouncil.bsky.social
