@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It was still there a few minutes later. I often wonder if bikes locked so badly are bait bikes to tempt and catch thieves. 000
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It won't stop it completely. Outside the gym windows there is a hire bike/scooter area. If the stands were there it might encourage gym users to go by bike knowing they can keep an eye on it. The current position is next to the blank wall out of view from the gym. 000
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Also new, outside KFC, Burger & Sauce (until a. BMW flattens it) and two in York Road. 000
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Three new Sheffield stands on Kings Heath High Street. Seems an unusual location. 200
@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 · 23/09/2026I am not clicking that. squaredle.app is bad enough.squaredle.appSquaredleSquaredle is a daily word building game. Swipe letters in the grid to test your vocabulary every day and rise to the top of the leaderboards! 010
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Having a pint in the Garrison. #LeBlindersPeaky 001
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Same in UK. Private scooters are illegal on public roads and Lime riders can be reckless. 000
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 16/09/2026The best thing about cycling is pissing off Daily Mail readers 130
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 15/09/2026From New Street take tram to Centenary Square, Library stop, walk through ICC to canal, turn right and it's behind the Malt House. 010

@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 09/09/2026That's not Loch Ness it's Bromford Bridge in Birmingham 120
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 05/09/2026"the buses grinding up the hill on Broad Street". Priya has now moved to Bournville. 😂 010
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Most people won't have heard of openstreetmap. Cycle streets maybe which uses it's data and has an android app. 100
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Have only skimmed a few but I think so too. I wonder what the purpose is. It used to have a few badly written pages with a link to a gambling site but seems like domain expired and was renewed this week. 100
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Actually I think it's AI. Priya and Marcus feature heavily but living in different areas. Odd. 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. Also states there are bike hangars in Bournville, can anyone confirm?birminghamcyclist.comBirmingham Cyclist — Pedalling the Second City ForwardPedalling the Second City Forward 110
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 28/08/2026I bumped into some old neighbours the other day who are planning on leaving Birmingham. Boy racers is the main reason. 120
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Which of their relatives and friends would they be willing to sacrifice. 000
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 24/08/2026A study was done a few decades ago. Think health and safety stopped it happening here. 010
@brumcyclist @brumcyclist.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Checkout the tatty flags on Coventry Road near the airport. An embarrassing welcome for international visitors. 000
