Why don't cyclists use the cycle paths? PS, don't forget to vote on Thusday.

Utterly disgraceful way to start a news report. "Debra Stalker, who had a 35 year blemish-free driving record, clipped the biker on Clover Hill Road in Norwich on September 10 last year." @norwichcycling.bsky.social archive.is/202604141508...

Our season of social rides got off to a fine start today as we headed out to Ketteringham and Hethersett. On the way there we took in the massive roadworks at the A47 Thickthorn junction from the top of the old footbridge.

Sometimes getting from A to B stops being your choice. Cycling puts it back in your hands. When you go, how you move, the route you take. Just you, on your terms. With tube strikes expected soon and fuel prices continuing to rise, that autonomy matters cyclinguk.org/advice 📷 davewalker.bsky.social

Great turnout for our campaigner's workshop last night with Duncan Dollimore, @cyclinguk.bsky.social 's head of campaigns. The upcoming local government reorganisation will offer many challenges, but there will be opportunities too!

The A47 dualling, what about cycling? For the past year work has been underway building a new road for the A47 west of Norwich. What does all this mean for cycling? Maybe more that you thought, albeit a badly substandard and inadequate scheme. www.norwichcyclingcampaign.org/the-a47-dual...

Building safer active travel networks that work for women and girls 👭 Women and girls across the UK continue to miss out on the freedom and wellbeing that active travel can bring, because too many routes still feel unsafe. 📷 Chris Foster

Great new document from @cyclinguk.bsky.social which gives simple measures local authorities can take to improve cycling for women. www.cyclinguk.org/my-ride-our-...

The stupid wooden post wasn't wearing hi-viz, no wonder the poor car hit it. Seriously, how do you do that much damage driving at 20mph? The answer of course, is you don't. Pink Pedalway, the Avenues. Reported.

If you're cycling down the Avenues don't be dazzled by the newly painted white lines. The potholes are still there. Yes I have reported them, but I think they already know. Seriously, there are a few more lurking, so do be careful.

The wand-protected mandatory cycle lane on Pound Lane has FINALLY gone in, some eight months after work started.

It’s the Chinese Year of the Fire Horse, associated with “bold, decisive action”. Peter Silburn was on BBC Radio Norfolk talking about the Heartsease roundabout and how it’s a definite improvement - but bold action is needed by NCC to make Norwich a truly cycling city! youtu.be/zv8HY34aflU?...

We'll be at the Norwich Science Festival this Sunday. Come along and say hello! 10:30am-4:00pm (quiet hour 9:30-10:30am) in the Explorium on Millenium Plain.

After years of lobbying, the damaged wands on the Earlham Road cycle lanes have finally been replaced. The wands are a new design without the wide black base, something we have been pressing for, so we’re pleased to see this.

Better places simply cannot be delivered without LTNs. The are key to network planning and their use unlocks so much. Apart from some notable exceptions, much of the UK simply has not critically reviewed its network function which means we are tinkering with a broken system.

Longwater – a timeline of incoherence The convoluted development of cycle routes at Longwater involved Norfolk County Council seeking advice, ignoring that advice, putting effort into an ill-thought-through scheme instead... www.norwichcyclingcampaign.org/longwater-a-...

4 year's ago today, the Highway Code changed. Did you even hear about it? The changes aimed to improve safety, but too many people still don’t know the rules. We’re urging the government to invest in an awareness campaign that actually reaches people. cyclinguk.org/hwc-4th-anniversary

This is what we need for the Longwater A47 junction!

💬 Big moment for #MyRideOurRight Yesterday, MPs from across parties debated women’s safety while walking, wheeling, cycling and running, hearing how road design must reflect real experiences and why safety fears still deter many from cycling. 🧡 cyclinguk.org/westminster-mror
