For the 'cyclists should pay to use the road' types

I'm happy to pay if it is proportionate to the damage I do

It would take a road bike 3,044 years of doing the same journey every day to damage the road as much as 1 journey in an SUV

Goodbye pavement parkers, hello accessibility for wheelchairs, mobility scooters, buggies, prams.

Today I can share I'm challenging the PM on the legality of abandoning key Net Zero commitments

I believe the timeline for the UK to meet Net Zero cannot be changed at will by the PM – I contend that he does not have the legal right

The ball is in your court , Prime Minister

@MPSSpecials The same child is in both photos, a driver not paying attention, looking at their phone, isn't go to see them regardless of what they're wearing.

A glimpse into the road justice system and how innocent families feel they’re being seriously let down. @RoadPeace @pollyherbert5

We played a really wide variety of games - hopscotch and introduced a lots of kids to kerbs!

The state of California is suing five major fossil fuel companies over their contribution to the climate crisis.

Just listen to these unflinching words by governor @GavinNewsom.

History in the making….

Anyone who says that cycling is for fit men should check out #KidicalMass - a totally uplifting representation of who wants to cycle on our roads but currently can’t! So much joy, all over the world, being had by #KidsOnBikes

[Emily Williams @Flutterbyknits]

Some footage from @kidicalmassINV ride yesterday. It’s always such a joyous ride - I love all the different bikes people ride, and the little ones having the chance to cycle independently on the road. @CMInverness @JimDensham @CyclingUKScot @FoEScot @highlandcyclist

@KidicalMassRead @reuterbal @deecaf_cafe Oops. I've not been on twitter for a while. Practice. Don't look at the front wheel. Get used to cornering. Steer at slow speed, do not lean. It wants to stay upright. Soon it will feel brilliant.

@HarryHamishGray If you are in Scotland Cycle Law Scotland are really good.

You can also follow up with the police now. I did after me and my 2yo were hit from behind. Driver charged with careless driving.

[Katie @sikandran]

@BalearicLion @carlafrancome I suggest ban cars and turn the car lanes into disabled lanes for buggy and wheelchair users. Drivers have been pandered to for *too long.
