I'm puzzled why so many drivers complain about cycle-infra when they use it at every opportunity. They park on it, they drive on it, they use it for loading & unloading; they're always on it with their vehicles.

Drivers should be shouting for even more cycle-infra so they can use that too.

We don’t have a youth e-bike problem — we have a youth e-moto problem.

I struck a chord with this @bikeportland.org advocating for Oregon's youth. This would be a game changer for moms like me who unfairly bear the burden of kid shuttling and for t(w)eens who need to learn resiliency and independence the fun way.

Opinion: Let Oregon kids ride Class 1 e-bikes
Oregon's age restriction takes away a crucial mobility tool for young people.

Why don't bloody cyclists use the cycle-lanes?

This is the new cycle-lane on E Wall Rd. It's like this all the time. This is a common issue with cycle-lanes all across the city. The drainage here was never adequate. Who audits these projects to check if they're constructed correctly?

Is it any wonder road safety is poor when 1/2 Dublin Metropolitan Region won’t investigate Traffic Watch reports. @garda.ie at Terenure and Pearse St claim you have an agenda if reporting crime. 🧵 @irishcycle.com @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social @darraghobrientd.bsky.social @righttobikeit.bsky.social

A 30km/h default urban speed limit will save lives.

🔺️ ⚠️ Heads up for Cork Nth Central voters who normally vote at the Hall at Trinity Church, end of Summerhill: works there mean your polling station has moved to City Hall.

That is stated on your polling card, but the change is not well flagged.

Comment & Analysis: Anti-greenway campaigners around the country are communicating with each other — that has been clear for a while. What I cannot tell you is whether they are exaggerating to each other willfully or unintentionally. One way or another, they are spreading lies about my work, so I want to clear up a few things.
