Assume it's Liverpool. Or on a bike. Or drinking beer.
To the car industry, this cycling paradise is 50,000 (wealthier) people who barely drive. A vast untapped market for EVs. Guilt free driving! They just need more roads and more chargers...

We can't build a bike lane today, because everything is 'Jam Tomorrow', when tomorrow is 20-30 years...

A tragedy in 3 acts, spread over 10 years.
The Derby Arms, Aughton (ish). Sadly, I can't find any photos of the inside, cos I remember it being a beautiful old pub.

My mate is a very capable bike fettler, and a good bloke. Frame resprayed by a local place. Then carefully selected campag... I randomly met him on his first shakedown ride.
I wish I could've been there the first time he turned up to the Sunday cafe on this...

One of my old mates has got one... It looks WILD in the flesh. It needed a lot of delicate work to get it into nice condition.

Watching the families cycle round center parcs, in peace... Even though our cities remain almost universally hostile to it.

Ya know, that was no bother at all... In a country of car centric infrastructure, driving a car is often the only practical option. Sadly.

Joyous sweet pure aircon!! Turn it up, turn it up, Go Go GO!!!
Only on the car though.
At home or in an office we've just gotta suck up the wilting heat.

NO!... haha.... the NEW one up on Kent St.
This one - replaced with a much better cycle friendly filter.
I've got no idea how this was decided, why money was spent here, etc etc.
It's actually improved quite a bit.
If you don't mind cycling through the area...

In all honesty, that's not an area where many people walk around, especially not at night.
If your front door looks like this... Then yeah, people respond to that in negative ways (parking on the pavement).

I got one of these. Once installed correctly, nothing much is removing it unless they come properly equipped with power tools.
Get a big SDS drill and fit it correctly into some hard.

I have no memory of ever providing this company with my details previously, yet the age verification worked based upon data they already held...
Absolutely bleak.

The best thing about owning an EV is the moral superiority it offers...
Or at least one thing is for sure, EVs won't improve the blight of 'park it like you stole it'.

Has there been an example photo yet where the pavement is flagstones rather than tarmac? The wide tarmac border that the gully needs is going to make a real bloody mess of the streets round my way...

If you'd suggested turning this road into a walking and cycling route only you'd have been laughed out of town. The 'chaos' it would cause.
And then the bridge failed, and motor vehicles can no longer get through.
And everything is absolutely fine, and this is now a fantastic few miles car free.
