Great to be part of @WeAreCyclingUK and InfraSisters' 'Glow Ride' on Friday in Edinburgh.

So many bicycles lighting up the night! 🚲🔆 It really drew attention to the challenges faced by female cyclists and called for better cycling infrastructure.

🚲 CLIENT STORY 🚲

Alan was found unconscious on the road after hitting a pothole that was submerged in water.

The Council denied responsibility throughout as they viewed it as low risk to road users.

🚲 CLIENT STORY 🚲

Chris was established on a roundabout when a car driver pulled into his path.

Bizarrely, the driver stated he had seen Chris but the insurers denied responsibility.
