@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I find the 5mph signs a bit silly as it's pretty difficult to ride a bike at 5mph. Or perhaps it's intended for the car drivers who drive here to the bee hives ? I'm not sure why they can't park at the car park and walk the last few hundred metres. 100

@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Nothing to do with me but Birminghamcyclist.com domain name appears to have a new owner and content. A number of blog posts added in the last few days. I thought it was AI at first but have an idea who it might be.

@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Selling an ofo hire bike that's hardly been ridden. Possible problem is that it's in Leeds and I can't get it to Birmingham except with a return train journey which would be expensive. Let me know if interested. 000

Reposted by @brumcyclistLeo Murray @crisortunity.bsky.social · 04/05/2026The lesson here, if any local authorities are capable of learning it, is that attempting to defuse controversy over traffic management by making big concessions to local motor lobbyists DOES NOT WORK: instead it just empowers & emboldens them to dig in & fight you for even more regressive outcomes 15116

It was predicted. People could have chosen to prevent this & they chose not to. & they'll almost certainly never take an ounce of responsibility for it & they'll probably do it again. 3547
Reposted by @brumcyclistKevin Carmody @skinofstars.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Given that we know default 20mph is the most effective way to saves lives, it really puts this image in context. Do you want default 20mph... read as "raise your hand if you want fewer people killed on our roads". Just one candidate. They're either cowards or callous. 61911
