I have too much time on my hands so have decided to convert the rants I give to my friends into substack form.

@doclangers Interesting concept. This is probably the only time I'd think a sharrow is preferable than to a painted lane.

@BicycleAdagio A benefit over scooters is that the lower centre of gravity would make them safer for the rider

@tomaspueyo I admire the optimism! Israeli desal plants generally have their own gas turbines to power them. Much cheaper than buying from the grid

@BicycleAdagio I will likely just tram in once a week, which costs $10 and takes twice as long. As opposed to riding in three times a week and buying lunches and coffees in the city.

@3AW693 Exhibition is the route I take to my office. I simply won't be going into the city as often anymore if it gets ripped up.

Whenever you cycle in Amsterdam, you are riding on the shoulders of giants…

Tens of thousands of citizens who, decades ago, took to the streets to fight back against the rampant rise of the car in their community.

Without this defiant act, their city would look like any other.

The State Library station platforms are taking shape – 35m below street level and 19m wide, among the widest underground metro platforms! With a 10m-high arched ceiling and chandelier lights designed and crafted right here in Melbourne.
