At a time of rising #PetrolPrices, a failure of our politicians to provide adequate #ActiveTravel infrastructure risks disproportionately isolating women, who are more likely to be put off cycling by a lack of safe infrastructure #MyRideOurRight @cyclinguk.bsky.social
Another day, another pedestrian seriously injured by reckless driving in #Winnipeg. This time in EK. I cycled by the aftermath this morning. It looked really bad. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A city with less motor traffic works better for everyone. Safer cycling, easier access for people with mobility issues, more space for people on foot, quieter neighbourhoods for residents, and thriving local businesses. This is what streets look like when they’re designed for people, not just cars.
Grocery giants just can’t help themselves.
Underweight meat. Overweight profits.
Canadians are sick and tired of being ripped off.
A public option for groceries is overdue.

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented.
They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed.
That energy is all around us.
And it does not have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
Build a good bike lane - it'll get used.
Rialto, Dublin. 14th April 2026
The soulless, sociopathic orange cunt stands in his suit looking bored and devoid of intelligent thought whilst an Oval Office guest is collapsed on the ground behind him. Fellow guests, able to demonstrate more compassion than the pedo protector has ever mustered in his entire miserable existence, are helping the collapsed man. The photo captures the insipid, disdain Trump holds for any other human being not permanently kissing his fat, wrinkly ass. At least today is one day closer to his death.
Congratulations to photographer Andrew Harnik who has won the White House Correspondents’ Association award for presidential news coverage with one of the greatest Oval Office photos ever captured.
Incredible stuff the US has done.
Having a second child was what really got me thinking about doing things differently.
With the first, I was stuck in traffic doing school run/ long commute etc.
It was 11 yrs before my 2nd arrived & I wanted different for her. Got me to researching walkable neighborhoods which led to cargo bikes!

Fresh off his trip to Hungary where he begged Hungarians to back Viktor Orban, J.D. Vance has decided world leaders shouldn't meddle in other countries' politics.
“There will never be a bell loud enough, a helmet strong enough, or clothing bright enough, to make up for poor infrastructure.” Billboard ad saying “join us in fighting for safe streets, by Vision Zero Vancouver, ad by Tom Flood.
There will never be enough victim-blaming to make up for poor infrastructure and missing leadership. But it sure makes a nice distraction for decision-makers hiding from responsibility, right?

Pedestrian Beg Buttons are the worst.
20th-century road building boosted GDP; 21st-century productivity depends on better transit, not more roads.

If we want our cities to be resilient we better work hard to ensure folks have the option to get around without needing a personal vehicle.

The European Union is tightening the regulatory backdoor through which US automakers have been quietly importing around 7k large SUVs and pickup trucks/year. “The revised rules, expected to launch in 2027, are designed to close loopholes that Brussels says allow unsafe vehicles onto European roads.”
Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon all have headquarters in Seattle. This year the Seattle School District has an 80 million dollar shortfall.
the thing about altman is he's a schmuck
Stick people painted on the street to indicate a pedestrian zone
The streets of Paris are for people, not cars.
(Kinda. Sorta. Eh, it’s a work in progress.)
Europe is blocking giant American cars. Hell yeah.
