Hats off to whoever did this (and the beautiful model).
One of those captcha things. This one says ‘select all images with bicycles. Click verify once there are none left’. There are 9 squares - 4 contain photos of bicycle seats, with the remaining 5 showing the beautiful head and face of a grey greyhound with a white stripe going from the top of their head to the tip of their nose.

I’m developing a game where you have to go back to assassinate Adam. It’s a first person shooter.

Edinburgh council are proposing walking & cycling improvements to Dundee St & surrounds

Transformative in enabling families, older, & less-confident people to walk & cycle, as well as reducing car dominance

Be sure to have your say!

A large group of cyclists in variously coloured helmets, jackets and winter wear gather on an asphalt gyratory island flanked by roads, under a pale grey winter sky; they are being addressed by a blonde lady in a woollen hat using a microphone, while a double-decker bus goes past. Banners reading ‘The Causey’ - the name of the location and placemaking project - and ‘Critical Mass’, the name of the cycle ride - can be seen among the crowd. In the background, tall churches and university buildings loom.
