I've not used Facebook for some time but it's the only way for me to contact some people so I'm not deactivating it (or Instagram) but I've just turned off all of Meta's creepy tracking shit. Do it here: accountscenter.facebook.com/info_and_per...

Cycling infrastructure shouldn’t be built for cyclists…it should be built for people who would like to ride a bicycle but won’t due high traffic volumes and the behaviour of a few drivers.
Making your city bike-friendly has so many strategic advantages, not the least of which is positioning the city well against its economic competition. But it’s not just about quantity of bike infrastructure —it’s about QUALITY too. Read my @FastCompany.com article www.fastcompany.com/90361034/if-...
If only experienced cyclists feel safe in a bike lane, then is it a bike lane at all?
What is AAA or "Triple A" bike infrastructure? It stands for bike infrastructure that's not just safe, but comfortable, for "all ages and abilities."

Like Sean I experience regular access refusals with my Guide Dog Ava.

Every time I visit a new shop, restaurant or business my heart races with the fear of confrontation. The law granting access rights for guide dogs has existed for nearly 30 years.

Still hoping locals in #Richmond can have a look at the awful plans to keep the deadly junction at the RAA.

If you have a moment, tell planning the exit onto the A316 needs to close, so that no-one else dies there. thedayyesterday.substack.com/p/richmond-a...
Richmond Atheltics Ground Should Stop Putting Cyclists At Risk
RAA is planning to extend its car parking, and make some very minor tweaks to the entrance where a cyclist died a few years ago, and where many others are put at risk every day.

If you see this post, quote a bridge.

Same idea but smaller!
