We fixed up the ghost bike memorial for Heather Stronach and Stuart Elliott, killed on their bikes by HGVs at this junction in Portobello in 2020 and 2019 There has still been no junction redesign, no investment in safe infrastructure by City of Edinburgh council here.

Scott Arthur contributed to this afternoon's Westminster Hall debate on Women's Safety while walking, wheeling, cycling and running. Here's a wee clip of him giving the @InfraSisters a namecheck. I'm sure we can forgive the stumble over our name; it's quite a long word.

The road ride has made it to the Dreadnought pub! The more demanding gravel rides are still on their way. Lots of appropriate stickers and posters in the all-gender loos. So glad we did this #SolidarityRide
