Cycling in North East Scotland - Moving Forward Together

[GrampianCyclePartnership @GCP_JustGoRide]

“The 🚓 cannot be everywhere & evidence collected by citizens CAN make a major contribution to reducing road danger”.

Yet, “@PoliceScotland (STILL) does not have a reporting portal at all”. 🤷🏻‍♂️

While acknowledging fiscal/resourcing pressures, THIS HAS TO CHANGE… 1/3

RtN2024: The Tour of Angus
70/100 miles around the Coast and the Glens. No timing - never a race, never just a picnic!
Thanks to @AngusCouncil for cooperation on this (when they've had other transport headaches). They're considering my request to rebuild some roads much higher!

Duke & Duchess of Rothesay (aka William & Kate) cycling in Moray 👇 to show support for @OutfitMoray ...🤔🤔

Nah! Not all that likely is it?! Besides they go on holiday in August, so they'll be away in rural Aberdeensh... 😳😲

[GrampianCyclePartnership @GCP_JustGoRide]

It’s unforgivable that @AberdeenCC has NEVER, in earnest, investigated implementing school streets, even a trial. As proved elsewhere, these can be game-changing on so many fronts. Let’s hope that next week the first steps will be taken to put our children BEFORE motor vehicles

A reminder to complete this and share with others please… the long since disgraceful, and unsafe, ‘link’ needs drastically overhauled for 🚶‍♀️🧑🏻‍🦽🧑🏼‍🦯🏃🏼‍♂️🚴🏻‍♀️

Aberdeenshire really has world class rural country cycling. No really check it out. If folk elsewhere knew about this stuff …. ❤️ @GCP_JustGoRide @ride_the_north @abdnshcyc @WilliamFawcet20 @planetxbikes

[Colin Ross @RosscoPossil]

Formartine @ Buchan Way, 50mi of non traffic safe active paths between ABZ & Fraserburgh. @GCP_JustGoRide @ride_the_north @abdnshcyc it’s already mind blowing just because it exists, but imagine some money spent on it. Lovely way to traverse the Grampian farming belt ❤️

[ride the north 🚴🏻‍♀️🚴🚴‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @ride_the_north]

Deeside Way! All the Way! 70.5 km Aberdeen to Ballater #Aberdeenshire (65 of which traffic free). Summer not giving in to Autumn without a fight! 🚴☀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👌

Happy 20th Birthday @aberdeenCF!!!

At @the_artscentre with others, incl. @CyclingUKScot & @CycleWithoutAge to help celebrate the momentous occasion. Huge kudos to all those over the years who’ve been part, esp. the long-standing stalwarts Gavin & Rachel.
👏👏

[GrampianCyclePartnership @GCP_JustGoRide]

Some v. small steps taken already @Aberdeenshire
@SustransScot but there’s clearly still so much needing addressed eg surfacing upgrades, drainage fixes, vegetation clearance, removing barriers preventing the wonderful resource from being truly inclusive & accessible for all

Tiny bit of Aggro from Agnes 🌧️ to end 2 years commuting without a car, 98% bike, 1% walking, 1% bus. Best buy? Decathlon’s rubber troosers with built in shoe covers 👏 (saved parking £10 per day + fuel + no 🚗 😡) the views though 👇😍👌 @ride_the_north @GCP_JustGoRide
