Today I speak at the Bicycle Association conference. I will present a case for better communication with the public. What do you want to see from the e-bike industry in design, at retail, in how we present & demo goods? Why does the bike world struggle to engage the masses? What turns people off?

The IWD 2025 campaign theme is 'Accelerate Action'. We ask planners to build infrastructure that's safe & comfortable for women & girls. Many groups have ridden, campaigned, and yet Edinburgh hasn't seen the change it needs as a city to thrive. How can we accelerate action?

This year for #IWD2025 we're doing something a little different. A lunchtime pop-up "safe space" ride around the city centre on Monday 10th March. We'll start outside the City of Edinburgh Council's offices at Waverley Court on East Market Street at 12:30. Bring your noodles!
A woman in a blue hi viz vest on a bike.  The bike has two pool noodles pointing out from the right side bearing signs saying For A Life Thanks Please Leave Space.   The legal minimum distance for a vehicle to give a cyclist is 1.5m, the length of the noodles.

What would a TV ad promoting alternatives to driving look like? What if people who love cycling and progressive transportation reclaimed ideas like freedom, independence and even patriotism? We decided to give it a shot. Check out our new video, "America, It's Just Like Riding a Bike."
