This is a brilliant study, it challenges our skewed acceptance social normalities. The authors of the study call this Motornormativity; just another thing we need to collectively unlearn to make life better!
@willnorman@IslingtonBC@RowChampion This is brilliant, but please roll the LTNs into the north of the borough ASAP. The residential streets are lovely south of Holloway, can we have some more please?
The #HighwayCode now includes a new simple rule to make our roads safer for everyone. If you're turning at a junction, you should give way to people going straight ahead.
Whoever you meet, #TravelLikeYouKnowThem.

Hopefully this is the mandate Labour need to roll out LTNs across the borough. The north west of Islington needs this, the disparity between here and the south is huge. #hillrise @DavePoyser https://t.co/VhDLB4dmAC

Islington Council, can you please take some inspiration from this? It's becoming a pleasure to cycle in Hackney, but in the forgotten north of Islington we're feeling left behind. @IslingtonBC@DavePoyser@CycleIslington@willnorman#LTN
This is what happens when you deliver...
🚲Five new Low Traffic Neighbourhoods.
🚲 Multiple new modal filters.
🚲40 new School Streets.
🚲 Lots of new segregated cycleways.
🚲 Geotagged electric dockless bike bays.
🚲 New bus gates.
All in one year.
Hackney, you're welcome.
What makes the perfect vehicle?
The reality of driving in cities is a far cry from what the advertising tells us. Loved working with @Specialized_UK to show there's a better way with Specialized Turbo.
No Traffic. Easy Parking. Zero Emissions. Effortless Errands.
Thank you @TfL, and @willnorman for such great cycling provision, suitable for little kids. We need more of the same everywhere else in #London now. #KidicalMassLDN
The other day, a man in his 70s looked at my bike skeptically.
"Why do your ride it?"
When I said "saves money," "doesn't pollute," he scoffed. But agreed when he said it was good for my health.
I forgot to tell him the real reason: Joy.
Day in, day out, my bike makes me happy.
