You can protect the cycle lanes with barriers but the van will still find a tiny gap to park in and block it. Absolutely ridiculous endangerment of cyclists. Is this policy @Postvox? #freethecyclelanes

@irokie It’s just a bluff so that when they finally release their long-awaited album you’ll just think it’s Tool$

Interesting thread about gender differences in cycling. Some grim reading but hoping we can start to make a change with Dublin WTF Bike Gang x.com/ireland/status…

Something I'd like to use this platform to discuss is women & cycling. In Ireland, or Dublin anyway, the male:female ratio for everyday cyclists is about 3:1. However, in the Netherlands around 52% of cyclists are female. Why don't more Irish women cycle?

I talked to a cycle paramedic at traffic lights yesterday. From her emergency calls she concludes that the new segregated London cycle lanes resulted more cyclists but in a big fall in accidents ...Britain wants cycle-friendly cities. | Andrew Gilligan theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Is it just me or is a good part of Queer Eye’s appeal the fact it’s really a heterosexual woman’s fantasy? In which someone else comes and does the emotional labour of teaching a male partner how to cook, clean and care for himself?

We spotted this guy in Richmond today. Carrying out a successful gardening business in the borough, using an electric bike, and a trailer you can put 140kg on. He's called Tim Leigh, and you can get him at [email protected] Cargo and electric FTW!
