What is the Exeter cycling Campaign?
🧵
1/
We are a registered charity working to ensure our lovely city thrives & that people are enabled to cycle, scoot & walk.
We believe that cycling to school, work or the shops should not require bravery.
RT welcome 😀
If you think we've gone quiet on here - it's because we are migrating our content to Blue Sky. We hope to see you there. Follow us on

Check out our latest newsletter with key information about the Boniface Trail. Why not encourage a cycling friend or colleague to sign up for our emails? It'd be great to have more people on board. https://t.co/VVdlPk4WKE

Many of the food delivery machines involved in close calls with pedestrians are not bicycles. They are illegal electric motorbikes. Not a cycling issue: a law enforcement issue. https://t.co/Damnvkpaj3
@DartmoorDevon are asking for help with developing active travel plans. Suggestions for improved accessibility for walking, wheeling and cycling can be made on an interactive map. Load your suggestions here: https://t.co/GxRuPKQwRN
Also, NEVER FORGET that Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally AGAINST downtown bike-lanes, later became one of their most vigourous supporters, because of EVIDENCE that bike-lanes are better for downtown business than any street parking they replace.
