'But they'll need a van..."
Bumped into Stefan from Itinerant Builders, emerging from #OvalLTN. He and colleagues have a thriving business, and not a van between them. Loving how London adapts to low traffic streets! @SaveOvalStreets@London_Cycling@LambethLivingSt@willnorman
To drivers everywhere: not one single cyclist ever has "come out of nowhere". Instead, cyclists almost always come from *where you didn't bother to look".
Remember that before ascribing trans-dimensional skills to us that we don't have!
Dear @BrandonLewis,
The climate activist on the left received a six-week prison sentence for a peaceful protest.
The thug on the right received a suspended sentence for driving his van into a cyclist, then assaulting him.
What are you doing about our rotten legal system?
As a result of this inconsiderate parking during last night's #MUFC fixture, an elderly female fell from her wheelchair whilst trying to get around the car to get off the kerb. Consider the effect of your actions on others when you dump your vehicle.

This is Noel. He rides an e-trike for his work as a plumber and handyman. He has a trailer which can carry a 10 foot ladder!
Sometimes he drives a van if needed, but most jobs he can do on his bike - "because we all have to play a part, don't we?"
What a legend.

“The same way beer tax isn’t used to build pubs, vehicle tax isn’t used to build roads”
“Pub goers don’t shout at people having soft drinks because they’re not paying beer tax”
Businesses in Brixton are being offered a free cargo bike delivery scheme thanks to @CrossRiverPship@lambeth_council@BrixtonBID & @pedalmeapp. Interested business can get in touch with CRP directly 👇🏾. Would businesses be interested in a similar scheme in #HerneHill?
Secrets of a great political heckle.
1. POSITION. Start off-camera.
2. VOLUME. Ensure the interview has to stop.
3. SAUCY PHRASE. Include something a bit risky, e.g. “bugger all.”
4. HEIGHT DIFFERENCE. Make the camera operator hunt for you.
5. END IT CLEANLY.

The most important thing about this amazing Paris transformation is how fast it happened — how fast people on bikes “appeared” — once streets were transformed. You can’t write this off as “Paris was always this way,” because it wasn’t.
It took leadership.
