Our red @ternbicycles GSD S10, 'Scarlett' passed the 1000 mile mark this evening on my way to collect my daughters from after school activities. Just two days short of our one year delivery anniversary, and on the lovely cycle friendly streets of @wfcouncil

@SaskiaHeijltjes Eco getting to work by myself, Tour with kids on the back. Sport or Turbo if I want to make the kids squeal or want to get away from the lights quickly because I'm unsure of the driver behind me.

@JoRigby_Balham @AldiUK @TfL In Tottenham they ban shopping trolleys from the store. They have to be left at the entrance and collected to be loaded on exit.

@2Sides_1Story @francesca_kms It's a contraflow lane.

[David @SpotMonkey]

@johnineurope321 @francesca_kms I'll just pull out in front of motor traffic without warning if I meet someone coming the other way in the cycle lane. That's so much better than adding less than ten seconds to someone's journey by following the highway code.

@Gravemi77327855 @francesca_kms Remove the wands and it'll become parking. Even with wands, some people struggle to understand it's a cycle lane.

[David @SpotMonkey]

@Philthomas1968 @francesca_kms No, southbound cycles take the contraflow lane, the northbound cycle route is in the main traffic lane.

[David @SpotMonkey]

@francesca_kms Depressingly I also obey the one way rules on my bike and although I get tailgated as I hold the lane going north I can't remember being beeped. I might be a little faster but I'm also clearly male which might be the key factor 😞

@MamaMoose_Be I'm going to say @FDbikes in Euston. Lots of cargo bikes but also Gazelle.

@O2,
Hi there, I've just bought a ticket for @NHM_London WPOTY with the Priority 2 for 1 offer, for 4/3/24. But the app says both that QR code expires in 2 weeks 3 days and that it will remain visible until June 30th once activated. Don't want to be embarrassed at the entrance.

@CarolineRussell @sajeraj @BNHWalker It's a bad graph, no doubt about it. I think the risk to Labour is the first year of FPTP in London mayoral elections. I (Lab worried about environment) previously would vote Green 1st expecting a Lab mayor win with my 2nd pref. I agree, a Green or LD vote now risks a Tory win.

@AashaCowey Jubilee Gardens playground under the London Eye if the weather is good and your daughter is in more of a tear around mood than careful concentration.

@IsSaddleThereIs Ashley Road?

[SJA London & South MRT @SJALondonMRT]

Did you see us last night?

@stjohnambulance MRT volunteers worked jointly with @ldn_ambulance yesterday, aiming to deliver high quality prehospital care in central London, where road closures had made it inaccessible to ambulances.

Happy New Year!

@NeverEnoughShoe And if you've cleaned them at the suggested frequency and they're still not clean, consider purchasing replacements. Unfortunately they're not cheap compared to the cost of a new cleaner, but does mean sending far less to landfill.

@JamesHSBrown @constructingldn Homes is a loose term. I expect most will be investments.

@YuconGold @francesca_kms Cycling for more journeys, not every journey. The coach might use a car to carry equipment (if there's none at the venue) but then no one else needs to bring 10 balls. If half the kids cycle and the other half come by car, that would still be a massive traffic reduction.

[David @SpotMonkey]

@IsSaddleThereIs @mikehakata I'm hoping they're loading bays and /or disabled parking for the retail which aren't yet marked up due to traffic management during construction. Likelihood of being used as free on street parking? 💯

@Rohit_Silhi I only made it to the 4th. Ambushed by a rickshaw at Oxford Circus.
