A far larger cargobike then I'm used to, but it was lots of fun being the passanger for a change. Now I know what my kid feels like

It's not just that work under these platforms is often done illegally (illegal vehicles; uninsured; breaking road traffic laws; modern slavery infiltrated labour). But even if you solve those problems; the employment model is exploitative to try and hide the fact that these are, in fact, employees.

Subsidy per mile is definitely the way to go here: incentivise the switch to legit, safe, e-bikes.

London is proud to host Japan's Grand Sumo Tournament this week - it's fantastic to see the the teams using our cycling infrastructure to get around.

A lot of mobility innovation focuses on making existing options even more comfortable for the most privileged, at the expense of children, the elderly, people with low incomes or disabilities. If we’re not designing for them, we're designing ourselves out of the system: fair-mobility.eu/the-library/

People who can afford to drop the thick end of £40k on a car do not need a handout. We should be using that cash to get people to swap to alternatives instead. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Good to see this new trade association for #Sustainable urban freight, funded by @impurbanhealth.bsky.social, and to see the range of founding members. From @pedalme.bsky.social to Evri to DHL, it's great to see representation from mixed fleets as well as electric vans and cargo bikes. #AirPollution

Ed Milliband is about the only reason to have faith in labour. He is right. We do need to continue to step up efforts to get to net zero and tackle the climate emergency. Change has already happened, and UK weather is more extreme so we need to double down. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

@pedalme.bsky.social Hi - saw you just reposted my post 👍🏻 If you don’t already know about it, check out the latest episode of @podstreetsahead.bsky.social - there’s a whole article (and report) on delivery driver substitution. [starts about halfway through] shows.acast.com/5e8ee3bc4fc2...

Interesting project by @pedalme.bsky.social looking at the scale of use of #SubstitutionClauses by #GigEconomy platforms - please help them if you can @appgcw.bsky.social @lauralaker.bsky.social @walkridegm.org.uk

@lauralaker.bsky.social @adamtranter.bsky.social @podstreetsahead.bsky.social Hi guys ! By coincidence, @pedalme.bsky.social the bike courier people are running a citizen science project into substitution in the food delivery industry. You should check it out: www.pedalme.co.uk/whos-doing-t...

@pedalme.bsky.social trip booked for tomorrow, it'll be nice to be a passanger for a change 😂 This is the view I normally have!

Happen to be in London next week, very tempted to use @pedalme.bsky.social for a trip or two... Anyone have experience? 😀

"I’ve seen barely any discussion about shifting modes to save lives,” said National Transportation Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy “...But as someone who rides transit every single day, I know I am less likely to get into a crash, just by getting on that train.”

Sorry, going fast, but bikes used for cargos are clearly still widely used - and growing in use elsewhere too! For instance in London, where I live: bsky.app/profile/peda...

Good morning! We are out there….weekend service 8-5. Head to www.pedalme.app to book! Perfect for eBay purchases - from fashion to furniture. Or take a joyride with our passenger service.

This is the first in a series of hard-hitting messages to remind everyone why Pedal Me is an organisation worth backing—because when we win, you win, your city wins, and society wins too. drive.google.com/file/d/1ZH13...

“Believe it or not, electric bikes offer more exercise than pedal bikes on average. That might sound strange, but the science is clear.” Why e-bikes give more exercise than “acoustic” bikes. (but both are excellent for better cities, and both are a LOT cheaper than cars, especially after tariffs!)

A cynic might say that their entire business model is predicated on these companies maintaining great loopholes for modern slavery to occur, because modern spaces are great workers right? Not us, we hasten to add.

I think we can change the world by having protected bike lanes and secure bike parking everywhere.

I refuse to shut up about this: NYC started charging $9 to bring a car into our most transit-rich zone, the haters & trolls predicted doom, but traffic evaporated instantly and here’s Times Square tonite (even after the holiday tourists have left). For a better future, build transit & price driving!

The reason that there is increasing people smuggling activity, is because there is a growing financial incentive for it to happen. A social media ban won't stop this process happening and is frankly a laughable response to growing people trafficking. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

“Tech billionaires don’t have a great track record when it comes to fixing our transportation system… tech companies have kept us trapped in cars by distracting us from investments in improved transit & other transport options.” @parismarx.com in @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/article/1740...
