A tumbling (mini) iceberg to end the week.😌 #Iceland

If the cap fits. My @smh @theage cartoon.

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. Safe bike-lanes mean business.

A heavily redacted cartoon. My @smh cartoon.

“They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars… Now it appears that work is paying off. #Oslo & #Helsinki are reaping the rewards of committed action on making their roads safer, reducing pedestrian fatalities to zero last year.” #VisionZero #SpeedKills

In which I have a look at AUKUS and tbh lose my shit at how dumb it is. @thepointau.bsky.social thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...

I'm no expert... But surely these groups should be aligned. Unless one of these groups is mislabeled.

Looks like an interesting Tuesday, low of 17°C and high of 45°C. Batten down at home with the A/C, I guess. Let’s hope the bushfire situation does not get too catastrophic 🤞

I think I need to repost this after today’s Liberal/National shenanigans. Called it correctly last time. My guess is that the Liberals will have a new leader, though. Ssorry, Sussan, you will never have Paris. 😂 Or is the new coalition Liberal/One Nation after the rest of the Nationals defect? 🤔

Grass roots. My @smh cartoon.

The international rules of law have just been made obsolete and so has the UN. We may as well dissolve it. It is quite telling how dismissive countries like the UK, France, Germany and Australia are about this. Good night and good luck. news.un.org/en/story/202...

The unreachable bike parking. Melbourne bike infrastructure at its best.😂

🔟 In Sydney, Lord Mayor Clover Moore has focused on design, innovation and sustainability to shape a beautiful and liveable city for the twenty-first century. On her watch, cycling rates have increased by 163%—and the number of women biking by 15%—with over 40,000 residents riding in a typical week.

This is odd. We put in the desalination plant in the last drought to not have to worry about water restrictions anymore. With the excess solar power during the day we should have no problem running it. 🤷‍♂️ www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

Two men. My @smh cartoon.

I cycled the new Veloway today that was built as part of the Westgate Tunnel project. It separates the bike lane from the dangerous road below, which provides access to the port of Melbourne for thousands of trucks everyday. bigbuild.vic.gov.au/projects/wes...

How does Black Friday show your true colours? | Fiona Katauskas

Again an article that mixes the danger of illegal e-motorbikes (no pedals) and modified e-bikes with the danger of riding e-bikes in general. Enforce the existing laws on illegal e-bikes and stop them from being imported. Compliant e-bikes are not dangerous. theconversation.com/young-people...

That chart is well worth studying. Share of daily transactions taking place in cash around the world. As an Australian, I’m very much used to cashless everything by now. I’m still totally against going fully cashless.

At the Red Hot Summer Tour Crowded House concert at Rochford Winery in the Yarra Valley. Great venue, Crowded House was excellent. It was the biggest gathering of camping chairs I have ever seen 😁

Genuinely did a little chuckle.

A good news story! Have a great day. Renewables overtake coal as world's biggest source of electricity www.bbc.com/news/article...

Cycling cool

Mhmm, security guarantees don’t seem to be worth the paper they are printed on. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapes...

Die 90g Milka Schokolade ist auch in Australien angekommen. Qualifiziert das noch als Schokoladentafel oder ist das jetzt ein Schokoriegel? 🤷‍♂️

In the black- my #climate cartoon for @australia.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Achievement unlocked. After just over 3 years and countless replaced car trips I have done 10,000 kms on my Bullitt EP8. Still brings a smile to my face every time I ride it. 😎

Paris urban biking DOUBLED in just one year. “Cycling in Paris has transcended mere trendiness; it’s become a fundamental aspect of the city’s identity. Despite challenges like inclement weather, cyclists continue to flock to the streets, setting new records and reshaping the urban landscape.”

alien graffiti can be pretty hurtful 😔

Been sent this from Eurobike, a prototype balance cargo bike for 3-5 year olds. Just take my money.

An Australian has made a heartfelt plea for fighting to end in the Middle East, saying a global war could wreak havoc on innocent financial investments and superannuation accounts.

The amount the Dutch spend on cycling seems extravagant, but occurs because they view each penny as an investment. By calculating lifespan costs (and savings) to society, they prioritize infrastructure that gets people out of cars and onto more active, sustainable and efficient modes: bit.ly/4kST2tK

Signed the petition. This needs a serious review in the current environment.

Beautiful winter weather for the grocery shop. It seems to always be the toilet paper that is pushing beyond the storage cover.

It would be nice if the same level of scrutiny and regulation would be applied to cars to make them less dangerous. theconversation.com/e-bikes-and-...
