Sunset & supermoon rise on Kingston's Cambridge Road Estate in Norbiton...

Cycling really does give you wings! Watching a toddler soar up front whilst a retired tandem duo found their turbo mode was a definite ride highlight. Magical to see bikes bring out the joy in everyone, at every age, on this fun Kingston ride. @londoncycling.bsky.social @kingstoncycling.bsky.social

Having attended CPR / defib training on Monday, plans to include it in UK driving theory tests seem inspired. Next step to make the Dutch Reach a mandatory part of driving tests too rather than just a Highway Code recommendation..? #SaferRoads #Cycling emergencyservicestimes.com/2025/08/14/d...

If #cycletoworkday has got you thinking about your regular commute, we can help you plan & practice a bike-friendly route to work!

Great opportunity for children to pick up practical life skills this summer in Kingston, because you're never too young to learn how to take care of your own bike.

Will Norman tonight on how London Cycling Campaign's Share The Joy fund helps communities: "The people using London's cycle networks still don't represent the city. We have to ensure the benefits are felt by everyone in our city to enable everyone from every background to feel cycling is for them."

This was LOTS of fun! Looking forward to the next family-friendly ride already - more info on tiny.cc/FunRideSept25.

When you take Kingston's council leader out for a ride meeting and a driver demonstrates exactly why so many people won't feel confident using a bike locally until cycle lanes aren't seen as a handy parking spot...

Lost in a forest? What's the cure. Human Forest bike spotted trying to blend into Richmond Park yesterday...

Fun to finally get to test out Hammersmith Bridge's new cycle and pedestrian lanes as I biked to Beck for a sonically beautiful show at the Albert Hall tonight. 🚲💚🕺

Has any cyclist travelling on SWR trains EVER worked out how these ridiculous not-quite-velcro pseudo-straps actually work? Barely stretch to the second bike & definitely never stick together long enough to hold either... 😤

"The number one barrier to cycling is consistently feeling safe on the road. [...] Gender should never play a role in whether or not people feel able to choose to cycle." Yup. 👆💯

Just 5 minutes in Dordrecht was more than enough to disprove the popular British myth that over 60 is too old to cycle. In fact, the 30-60 age group in the Netherlands ride the least, and Dutch women generally use a bike more than men. 💪🚲👵

These photos, taken yesterday, seems a pretty accurate representation of the respect given to cycle lanes across Kingston at the moment, which seem more regularly blocked than I remember. [FYI @kingstoncycling.bsky.social]

The joy of adding a dead tree* to garden table & sofa on the ever-growing list of things I've taken to the dump on my festival trolley during one of Kingston Council's 45min pedestrian / cyclist weekend windows... * balanced on two giant bags of hedge clippings for added suburban satisfaction

Such a touching ceremony honouring the life of @timcyclesthecoast.bsky.social this afternoon. Far too many parallels with my own brother's life. I like to think they've formed the most formidable yet friendly bike-touring pub quiz team wherever their travels have taken them. Top Guns together. ✨🚴‍♂️💔

Smiles all round in today's spring sunshine!

Perfect weather for a litter pick - join us from 2-3pm in Kingston's Fairfield today!

With the KCAH night shelter operating across two central sites this winter in Kingston, there's still a chance to help. This video shows my shift at The Hub when it first opened. If you can volunteer your time or make a hot meal for their dinner, visit kcah.org.uk/winter-night...

“CCC analysis shows that without changing consumption, it will not be possible to create the low-carbon society needed. This need not be drastic, and it would be good for us: walking & cycling more, taking public transport instead of the car & eating less meat would all improve most people’s health”

Fingers crossed we get sunshine like this on Sunday 2 March for Kingston's next confidence-boosting ride! Quite literally fun for all the family. 💚🚲 t.co/mhGU3NM5sp

Ah, that fabulous Friday freedom feeling when you're no longer forced to walk three sides of a badly-lit, pedestrian-unfriendly square just to visit your neighbours... 🤗 #CRE #Regeneration #Kingston

"𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑑𝑜 𝑤𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡? 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲! 𝑊ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑑𝑜 𝑤𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝑖𝑡? 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗸!" ✨ Well done to everyone who braved the cold on tonight's protest ride to demand safer cycle ways across London. 💪🏽👏🏽 @londoncycling.bsky.social @kingstoncycling.bsky.social @hilarygander.bsky.social @classicantics.bsky.social

Is this some kind of record?! Obviously glad that particular Norbiton fly-tipping is no longer there four months on, but definitely a little short of Kingston Council's "aim to clear it within 24 hours once reported"...

As we push ahead with our 2025 activities, we thought it worth a quick review of what our busy volunteers got up to last year. Chapeau to all the members who helped make this happen & do get in touch if you could help us make even more of a difference across Kingston this year.

Surprised to find the young driver of this car tucking into a big takeaway bowl of noodles as I cycled alongside him. But not as surprised as when he told me parking in the busy Kingston bike lane on a double yellow & forcing kids on bikes to swerve around him was perfectly legit coz he was hungry.

This line by a disgruntled Kingston driver ranting against cyclists on Facebook says so much. They didn't notice or remember an incident a person on a bike found so dangerous they reported it to the police (who agreed & took rare action) so it MUST be fake news, right? No other possible explanation.

Hands up if you had Christmas trees joining the bike lane backlash on your bingo card...

When you park your bike in Kingston town centre, use a plastic bag as a seat cover & the camouflage is so effective the bin men decide it's rubbish...

Prodigy Brixton part 3 - no better way to end the year than on a hat-trick Prodigy high. Absolute dynamite. 🔥

Prodigy Brixton part 2 - back in my happy place with unabashed visceral abandon. 🐜❤️‍🔥

If you're heading into Kingston tomorrow, look out for the Full Cycle elves & their practical Christmas presents (kids / adult bikes & gift vouchers)! All proceeds go towards their community projects and charity partnerships, to help more people across the borough have access to affordable cycling.

Prodigy Brixton part 1 - still not too old for the mosh pit madness...

Having seen utility companies use the limited green space around the Cambridge Road Estate to dump their materials for long periods of time - seemingly with impunity - we definitely agree that more needs to be done by councils to protect local trees.

Hey @glovewatch.bsky.social, spotted this lost and lonely glove waving for help outside the corner shop at the junction of Hawks and Bonner Hill Roads in Norbiton earlier. #glovewatch

Litter picks are a simple, fun and effective way to build community while improving the environment around you. Because every little helps. 💚♻️

Stuck for Xmas gifts? Full Cycle's vouchers are a community-spirited way to inspire a greener Christmas & more active new year! Valid for their 2nd-hand bikes, maintenance classes, servicing & cycling accessories, all profits support their active travel initiatives with charities across Kingston.

Anyone know how far from their premises companies can display an A-Frame in Kingston town centre? Given how into health & fitness you'd assume the UBX Gym folk on Brook Street are, it's annoying how far this one's spread into the area for pedestrians & cyclists. [FYI @kingstoncycling.bsky.social]

British cars have become 1 cm wider each year since 2001. Should owners of #BigCars pay more for parking? YES because they: 😠 increase carbon & particulate emissions 😠 damage roads 😠 take up more precious road space 😠 cause greater collision injury in collisions. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Never have I felt so justified in getting my rage-fuelled "Greg Wallace Is A Jumped Up Greengrocer" t-shirt made with just one g nearly 15 years ago. #greggwallace #Mastertwat

From Stone Hair's pop-up market (Old London Road) & ASC's open studios (Hawks Road) to the Christmas Shopping Trail along Coombe, Elm & Park Roads, lots of local lopportunities to feel festive whilst supporting Kingston businesses / artists this weekend...

Rule of thumb for future cycling infrastructure planners: If children can't cycle on it safely, it's not fit for purpose.

You've got until midnight tonight to enter! Whether you win or not, your support will ensure the sharks definitely do. 🌟🦈 www.bite-back.com/prizedraw/ #marine #conservation #oceans

"If Kingston Council's serious about creating healthy streets, encouraging residents to be less reliant on cars & embed healthy habits, it's vital it protects cycling infrastructure & improves it with facilities that connect safely & go places people want to go." kingston.nub.news/news/local-n...

Brilliant to see so many people cycling, scooting and walking to school! Exactly why we need even more school streets across Kingston.

🚨OBJECTIONS NEEDED BY 26 NOV 🚨If this planning application proposing removing a bike lane is approved it'll be such a retrograde move - especially at a time Kingston Council has committed to protecting existing transport infrastructure (partic. walking & cycling routes) in its new Local Plan.🙏

As my home is basically @bite-back.bsky.social HQ, please support its 20th anniversary fundraising prize draw! Every £5 invested will help the charity continue making waves in marine conservation. More info on the shark-tastic prizes & experiences up for grabs on www.bite-back.com/prizedraw/ 💙🦈🌊

"We’re not trying to take over the world. We wanted to put on our favourite bands in Kingston, in our home town. And that’s what we’re doing. Music’s alive & well in Kingston. And that in itself is a success.” A musical mission @jontolley.bsky.social & @banquetrecords.com are absolutely ROCKING.🤘🎶🕺✨

What a Wednesday! A crazy cold evening warmed up massively by a London Cycling Campaign award win (🙀) plus Khruangbin! My toes may still be frozen from the sub-zero cycle home, but my heart is very toasty & my brain still fizzing in shock. 🥰 #London #Music
