The current condition of the MTB Pump Track at F-9 Park. The grass & bushes have taken over. Some part of the track has been washed away due to insufficient water drainage. Please fix this as well @CDAthecapital @DGEnvtCDA

The Shakarparrian Jungle Track needs some serious attention. Too many fallen trees & seasonal overgrowth has made it nearly impossible to cross. Kudos to everyone who rode it today @MTBIslamabad

@benscruton I plan to ride the route but not during the race

[Islamabad Cycling Association @CyclingIsb]

Why #TourdeKhunjrab can become one of the best cycling races in the world.
This year @LeTour highest point was at around 2400m. TDK starts at 2500m & summits at 4700m above sea level.

@Noormengal_ No
You can start a transport service and put toll tax on the cars.
If Chairlift facility can be developed that would be nice as well

@AidanJKR @CyclingIsb Hi would like to meetup, can you message on [phone] so we can cordinate when its easy for you

[Brent Toderian @BrentToderian]

One thing we know for SURE — building & widening highways ALWAYS succeeds in helping sell more cars, gas & suburban sprawl; burning more public budgets; & increasing GHG emissions. So if THOSE are your goals, it’s the perfect thing to do.

Just don’t expect it to reduce traffic.

[Noor Ul Amin Mengal @Noormengal_]

Upcoming in Islamabad. March.

[Noor Ul Amin Mengal @Noormengal_]

Let’s be a cyclist. .. developing infra for cyclists in all markets, parks and institutions. Model stand being developed at Super Market like shown below.

[Islamabad Cycling Association @CyclingIsb]

The Cycling Community of the city had a great meet-up with chairman CDA @Noormengal_
ICA endorse the cycling strategy of @CDAthecapital and look forward to working together to make #Islamabad a cycling friendly city.

[Haroon General @HaroonGeneral]

It’s an easy fix with very little connection. Only 20 feet of patch work. @CDAthecapital @mci_ict @CaptainUsman

[Kamran Hashmi @kaamran]

Srinagar HW G-7 exit. Why it had to be removed? While such exits exist for G-9, G-8 & G-6, this one was disconnected from the Srinagar HW. It was such a relief for the people of G-7. Now it's 4km extra to get on the highway. Bring it back please.
