Who else has a camera on their cargo bike - or on a bike you carry children on?

🚲 Are they necessary?
🚲 A good idea?
🚲 Do they change drivers' behaviour?
🚲 Provoke negative reactions?
🚲 Do they make you feel safer?

We'd love to know your thoughts.

👉 Tell us in the comments.

This morning outside Seven Sisters tube station in Tottenham. TfL not able to build a proper Cycleway here but is able to maintain and enable driver behaviour like this. It's little wonder nobody uses these cycle racks.

Oh god yes. There are so many tourist and other high traffic areas all over London that could benefit from this.

Cramped footpaths no longer. Camden Council plans to pedestrianize the street in front of the British Museum.

Another central London street transformed with a filter and added gardens, preventing rat-running, noise, and danger. Chef’s kiss, London. Thank you, Camden Council, don't stop.

'No one cycles in rain/winter' - strangely not something usual anti-cycling suspects say in London these days. 08:52, heavy rain, C6 shot from Holborn Viaduct. More cycles than track can cope with & than motor vehicles. Yet we still are struggling to get enough capacity. @londoncycling.bsky.social

Keep Hammersmith Bridge car-free ⛔🚲

There have been rumblings of a move to allow cars back on Hammersmith Bridge, (a terrible idea) - so we need to remind folks just how much support there is to keep it car-free!

👋 Come down to the bridge on Saturday and show support: bit.ly/4b9o6DR

Morning drivers, as you head to work this week, please use your speed limiter. It improves your safety and has a calming effect on surrounding traffic, reducing the impact of the irresponsible. In UK, over 15 people a week die in speed-related crashes. Guidance attached:

A cartoon: Cycling on a budget. Summarising just a small amount of the info you'll find on budgetcycling.uk.
(Image from the book 'From A to B', by Dave Walker, published by Bloomsbury.)
Cartoon: Cycling on a budget Some ideas for getting going without spending too much money. Lots of people have bikes they don't use in their garages and sheds. Lots of bikes are bought with good intentions, but hardly used. A 'hybrid' is a good choice. See whether any of your friends or family have a bike they don't need. You can get a really good bike by buying secondhand Don't buy a really cheap new bike from the internet or non-specialist shop (Heavy; Cheap full-suspension worse than no suspension; Has it been properly set up?; Will probably break down) Advantage of a budget bike: Far less risk of it being stolen This year's model is often last year's, painted differently You don't need all the bells and whistles to enjoy cycling* *You need one bell Cartoon from 'From A to B', by Dave Walker
