"We're not Amsterdam, people don't cycle here." But they used to. And in huge numbers. I did this graph showing the doubling in transportation cycling in the mid-1930s. Graph done for my 120,000-word study at britishcycletracks.com

Spookily I did these sums years ago and got the same 1st order answer. Nice chart.

A favorite trope of drivers is "People who ride bikes should pay their fair share." When you explain what that actually looks like, enthusiasm generally evaporates. By all means, let's price property damage, space, road wear $=kg^4, pollution (air, noise), injuries and deaths.

Cycling traffic across England is up 7.4% on pre-pandemic levels. Not only does active travel like cycling and walking promote healthy travel but helps grow the economy through increased high street spending and better access to jobs. #Cycling #Walking #ActiveTravel

No LTNs mentioned on press release listing top 20 of UK’s most congested roads. Maybe it’s not bollards causing jams but extra millions of motor vehicles?

Drivers take note, this is why cyclists ride in the middle of the lane. You’re welcome


According to @EastDunbPolice this clip does not show dangerous driving. Hard to imagine how badly you'd have to drive to qualify as dangerous.
