Why do we give so little care to anyone not in a car in this country. Just walked to the train station, roads treated & clear, pavements untreated & turning to a slushy icy hazard! Some of the most vulnerable trying to walk to the shops safely, but that’s fine isn’t it if the cars are not held up.

Weekly grocery run with bike. Minneapolis. 18F/-8C. 4 bags of groceries. SUV behind me had drive up service too, for two bags of groceries. Everybody needs food. We don’t all have to get it with cars.

We biked to school today and had a great ride. “I’ve missed riding with you,” my daughter said as we set out. ❤️ I helped push for these new bike racks at school, and while their bike setup still isn’t great, it’s better than it was. Incremental progress.

Cities like to brag about how many kilometres (or miles) of bike paths they have, but the number doesn’t tell you anything about quality, connectivity, or usefulness. They should instead be judged on actual bike volumes (like from bike counters) or overall cycling mode share.

This video is an excellent resource to rationally explain the biases against transportation modes outside of cars. It’s a great one to share with friends and family who might be open to a logical discussion about our current motoring environment and the changes we need to consider.

A person on a bicycle is by far the most energy-efficient among animals and machines per distance traveled relative to body weight. The bicycle is magic. www.jstor.org/stable/24923...
A graph titled "Cost of Transport" showing the relationship between body weight (in kilograms) and energy consumption for distance traveled (calories per gram per kilometer) for various animals and machines. It highlights that a person on a bicycle ranks first in efficiency.

The Elizabeth Line this year moved more people than the 18 lanes of the 401 freeway, the widest in North America. Traffic is simply a geometry problem, and adding one more lane won't fix it.

That's appalling. “I’m not anti-cyclist." What could be *more* anti-cyclist than wrongly implying vulnerable road users don't pay tax & citing that as a reason to deny them safe infrastructure? She sounds more like a Reform groupie who's memorised their bike hate bingo card.

I will cycle unless it’s less than about 100 yards to my destination. Bloody hate walking - it takes ages. But lots of people do walk and that means they are not in cars so more power to them, and I will support them 100%.

Between 2012 and 2020, if you were a pedestrian on a pavement in the UK, you were over 100 times more likely to be killed by a motorist than by a cyclist.

It's essential to cater for people who walk, wheel or cycle, and to maximise harmony between them.

i want a more precise term than “road rage.” sure as a cyclist i too can get angry—when someone piloting a 2 ton machine that can reach 60mph in 6 seconds gets so irked by my presence that they use that machine to threaten my life. my rage isn’t the lethal kind.

When bike infrastructure is designed only for the stereotypical “cyclist,” it often overlooks everyday people who want to ride for transportation. By building for “fietsers,” those of all ages and abilities who rely on bikes for mobility, we also end up supporting dedicated cyclists.

An adult woman and a child stand smiling in jackets and helmets next to their bikes in front of a store selling Christmas items. The child's bike has a wreath on the front rack and the adult's cargo bike has a Christmas tree strapped to the back rack.Similar to the previous photo, but the two people are making a silly tree pose with their hands up above their headsA blue Tern GSD cargo bike with a Christmas tree on the back rack is parked in front of a townhouse. There's a wreath hung on the front door, partially open, and a minivan parked in the carport.The tree has made it into the house, been set up, and there are even some lights and a tree topper. It's a worms eye view and the tree topper shines LED red green and blue onto the ceiling.
