Why aren’t you on the cycle path

Some of the many reasons why I’m not on the cycle path/in the cycle lane. Secret mob boss of the #cyclemafia shh don’t tell anyone.

Loving the guy on the left. Astutely wearing a balaclava to make totally sure that no-one could possibly find any way of identifying him

Just to say that within minutes of Kate Kniveton having lost her seat, she messaged me to ask me to carry on her work on family courts. Not my party, but that my friends, is what a decent representative would do.

I found this incredibly affecting. Gave me a chance to see the man behind the stunts; someone who comes across as warm and gentle and sincere.

So I have been having a little look at the people who run some of the Welsh anti-20mph Facebook groups.

It seems that many of them a run by Tory politicians.... who live in England....and support 20mph where they live....

Let's go on a journey (at a very safe speed).

This is a horrible road to cycle along - and those cars are on the shared footpath/cycle way.

Apology issued after chaos on Wilford Lane over weekend as hundreds of cars park illegally for event

#WestBridgford #Nottingham

Residents and motorists were overrun by parked cars on Saturday and Sunday as ten times more people than expected turned up for an event at The Nottingham Emmanuel School.

On Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 September, the Nottingham City Junior Netball tournament took place at The Nottingham Emmanuel School on Gresham Park Road, off Wilford Lane in West Bridgford.

Organisers had estimated around 200 people would need to park to attend the event, but a figure closer to 2,000 actually arrived. The event was a private let by the school and they expected to easily accommodate the suggested 200 vehicles in their car parks.

However, by 9:00 -10:00 a.m. on both days – drivers started to park on double-yellow lines, on junctions, on traffic islands, on grass verges and in long lines along the pavements. The resulting congestion also prevented lorries from moving on Wilford Lane until other vehicles gave way for them, causing complete chaos for hours. This lasted all weekend according to residents.

It seems that the event organisers had communicated parking rules and advice clearly, but they say this was ignored or not read by attendees.
