Snorting at the RBKC cycling reference in @jayforeman.bsky.social Map Men book.

Free cyclists' breakfast this Saturday morning in London Fields! Would be great to see you there, either to help out or just to have a chat.

New separated cycle lanes popping up on Shaftesbury Ave. All it takes is political will + the removal of some unnecessary parking spaces. London is becoming a cycling city, reflecting a generational shift that recognises driving in urban areas as slow, inefficient use of time.

Englishness, for my money, is not being interested in defining Englishness, but if one had to upon pain of death, this must come close.

The facade is cracking

Stop waiting for the cavalry. You are the cavalry. @hackneycouncil.bsky.social

Come on @islington-council.bsky.social It's been 48hrs since the parade. These barriers need collecting and the streets need sorting out. #finsburypark #arsenal

news.sky.com/story/thousa... I wonder if this might become problematic long-term 🤔

The timeline is astonishing considering all the involved agencies were politically aligned. Over 10 years of inaction. I wonder if it's time to get all the parties back around the table? @londoncycling.bsky.social

Today I joined fellow campaigners asking where is cycleway 50? Announced in 2018 by @london.gov.uk With yet another fatal collision on the route last week. What will it take for TfL to take cycling seriously?

Cargo bike people, without effort, are addressing each and every "but what if you need to haul" question that carbrains throw at us.

A great thread... So many politicians still think that issues their constituents raise can be fixed by turning back time, rather than future planning.

Lots of London boroughs continue to prioritise the convenience of Range Rover drivers over the safety of Londoners. This is @rbkc.gov.uk who shamefully removed a cycle lane here.

Good evening Bluesky! Welcome to the live thread of the Hackney 2026 Mayoral Active Travel hustings. A full house here at the Pembury Community centre. We are joined by the 🟥🟩🟦 parties

I have a father and mother in law in Iran. I have a sister in law. A niece. She's 14. She likes silly pink headbands and purses and dresses, just like kids her age all over the world. There are 93 million people like her in Iran. People who do all the normal mundane life things as the rest of us.

16 years ago Finsbury Park was home to #antiracism and music. Now @wirelessfestival.bsky.social are platforming antisemite #Kanye whilst @haringeylabour.bsky.social let it happen. Shameful stuff in our community

A reminder from a few hundred thousand people: there are far more good people who oppose racism and discrimination than support it. #Together

Sending love and solidarity to our dedicated and inspiring Hatzola colleagues, who work alongside our emergency services in North London. Their hard-working volunteers provide emergency healthcare support to those in need. Atrocious that they have been targeted in this way.

Just a week to go until @hackneylcc.bsky.social legendary #Burnsnight dinner and dance. Still a few tickets available. 24th Jan next Saturday! Book now before we sell out www.tickettailor.com/events/hackn...

Not long until our yearly social / fundraising céilidh! www.tickettailor.com/events/hackn... Dinner and dancing, perfect to chase away the January blues.

www.hamhigh.co.uk/news/2569383... An important issue that council leaders and the @london.gov.uk need to act on. When will see action @metecoban92.bsky.social ?

Climate change is already damaging the nature, beauty and heritage we care for. Without deep and sustained cuts to emissions, nature faces an even more perilous future and the places people love will continue to suffer. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The express poll asking whether reforms migrangt visa plan is racist is about 91% "no" so it REALLY needs your help - this is a direct link to poll xd.wayin.com/display/cont...

Hey hey! It's autumn 🍂 it is Hackney Cyvling campaign AGM and I thought let's share some news! Thread incoming...

Raskin: "The dictators of the world have got nothing to fear from this hearing. Republicans called it to attack our democratic allies in Europe. The star witness is not a human rights leader like Navalny, but a far-right pro-Putin politician who leads the UK Reform Party."

Had yet another person knock on my door saying their stolen phone was located in my house today. 3rd in 2 months. Is find my iPhone not that good or are the phones in the local "second hand" phone shop 50metres away?

Remember folks...

You LOVE to see it

In the five years leading up to the replacement of blue paint with segregated cycle tracks and floating bus stops 5 people were killed on CS2. In the ten years since they were constructed no cyclists had died and there have been no significant collisions between cycles and pedestrians at bus stops

….Hackney with protected cycle lanes and floating bus stops (2/2)

Hackney without protected cycle lanes and floating bus stops versus….(1/2)

Take a look at this thread. This is what the absence of decent infrastructure for cycling causes: kids end up riding on the pavement because the roads are unsafe. Driveways open onto these pavements without adequate risk assessment, because drivers get the benefit of the presumption of right.

This was the scene locally in Hackney on Saturday. A small child was hit by a driver whilst cycling on the pavement next to a school. She sustained a serious injury.

I agree. Issuing design standards should be business as usual for ATE/DfT and not something for legislation. This bill is intended to be a step towards more integrated local transport and these changes would undermine that.

In her first speech as transport secretary, Heidi Alexander mentioned she was proud of the cycle lanes on Evelyn St & Jamaica Rd from her time as Deputy Mayor for Transport in London. Both feature bus stop bypasses as you can’t have a safe cycle network without them, a point clearly made here👇

Could you please engage with people who know about building active travel infrastructure @meghillier.bsky.social? Banning bus stop bypasses means no continuous cycle network, thus cycling only for the brave. In a climate emergency. In an obesity crisis. Children then unable to travel independently.

🤔 So, just what would a car-free Sunday in the capital look like? And what kind of impact would it have on cycling? 👨‍💻 Answers to those questions and more can be found in our latest Dare to Dream blog: bit.ly/4kxfPeL

@smoothradio.com morning! Can I get a shout out to the Blood donor team at the West End centre please? Chris and the team enjoying the tunes. Thank you!

Just look at it 🤯 The ball is in another postcode #ArsRma #UCL

Silvertown Tunnel is an utter embarrassment to London. London is locking-in car dependency, unlike forward thinking European cities like Paris that continue to invest in cycling infrastructure and reducing car usage. The just-opened tunnel needs to be repurposed. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

The ride theme was 'space' for cycling, with placards to match. A huge thanks to @rezinachowdhury.bsky.social for joining at the start and supporting the hundreds of parents & kids calling for action as well as being a city champion we desperately need to tackle #carspreading in the UK. 2/3

5 years ago, Hackney was at the forefront of changing streets to make cycling accessible and safer. Now, it's going backwards. @hoxtonrich.bsky.social has been calling this out but alarm bells should be ringing @hackneynorthlabour.bsky.social that there is very little confidence in delivery here 👇

This is the outcome when @transportforlondon.bsky.social lacks ambition for walking and cycling. Until delivery of high quality schemes is prioritised, we will see more of this.

Removing capacity for motor traffic has cut traffic in West London. Now we can see (again) what increasing capacity will do in East and South East London, when Silvertown opens next month.

Shout it from the rooftops! To reduce vehicle use, reduce vehicle capacity.

These are 2 remarkable posts for someone who claims to be an air quality expert and campaigner. The lack of knowledge & understanding they exhibit is off the scale. This is either deeply ignorant or deliberately misleading
