U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Does anyone have a photo of one of those UK dual carriageways where pedestrians are expected to scurry across? If so, could I possibly get a copy to use for a talk?

Research shows that biking is very, very healthy for people 65+. Findings after reviewing 28 prior studies: "Cycling in later life links to improved mobility [and] balance." "Older cyclists often report psychosocial health, life satisfaction, and well-being improvements."

Second Irish firm starts to supply Dutch-style ‘entrance kerbs’ as part of active travel range
Another Irish company has started supplying councils with Dutch-style ‘entrance kerbs’ — a key traffic-calming feature for continuous cycle paths and footpaths — as part of its range of active travel kerbs. Killeshal Precast Concrete, a company based in County Offaly, said that they are "proud to announce the official launch of our Active Travel Kerb Range manufactured here in Ireland."

The strategic road network is managed by a charity and relies on the goodwill of land owners for access. Some motorways will be muddy and flooded each winter. Also The strategic road network stops randomly at council boundaries and investment is where councils are willing. (UK edition).

Had an idea - since we now have the technology, how about speed cameras now send tickets out for not having tax, MOTs or insurance? With a 14 day right to appeal to allow for computer system lags on new purchases/change of owner records. Let's make it impossible to drive an uninsured, untested car

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell. Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass. That, right there, is the problem.

This is what we need to do in Stevenage. Many people have nowhere to store a cycle, so this prevents them from exploring our beautiful cycleways. To be fair, they are tired and need work, but they are still amazing compared to elsewhere.

Proposals in the new planning application for the Roaring Meg retail park would force people cycling to dismount and walk when they leave the Monkswood Way cycleway (a popular entrance/exit). We're encouraging our network to object to this application to show that cycling access must be improved!
