Forced to get a taxi to the station today (nowhere safe to leave my bike for a few days)
Of course the traffic is appalling because the schools are back. So the taxi took longer than it would take me to cycle.
And people do this regularly!
SΒ°15: Traffic in #utrecht. This is what moving people looks like.
Next time you hear "But not everyone can cycle!", this is the silent "distopia" they are trying really hard to prevent.

Saw this today and realised this year marks 30 years since I did Cooperation North Maracycle. And it's also the only medal I ever received for anything. I still remember some of those 2 days including staying overnight in @qubelfast student accommodation. @cooperationireland π²π₯

The Katu again proved itself today easily carrying a small speaker to help boost those tunes on the #EarthDay slow cycle. Nice vibrations coming thru the handlebars throughout. πΆπ² #BetterByBike

Local Brunswick resident Paula Hanasz was a guest on the @yarrabike Radio Show and talked about the issues and opportunities raised by the Brunswick Level Crossings project for families like hers who get around by bike. https://www.3cr.org.au/yarrabug/episode/brunswick-skyrail-resident-paula-hanasz #activetransport #levelcrossingsremoval #BrunwickSkyrail #activemerribek #betterbybike

I enjoyed an "unnecessary journey" by bicycle around Dublin City this morning for the frivolous reasons of health and wellbeing. I do those by public transport too and don't imagine it's that rare. #BetterByBike #UnnecessaryJournies πΆββοΈπ²π΄π€ΈββοΈπππ πβ€οΈ

Question for the #cyclists:
I'm looking for a new commuter bike for around Β£800. I live in the UK, cycling along a route which is mainly next to the sea: lots of salt air, lots of damp weather, a lot of potholes and a lot of wind
I'm after a bike which is comfy, can take mudguards and a rear rack as I have a pannier that carries my computer to work. Disc brakes & dropped handlebars are also requirements.
What would you recommend?

Marvellous seeing and hearing brent geese gathering for community and cultural activities in Dublin City. Moment from lunchtime cycle along Clontarf.

Well done
@WestCorkConnect
for a pleasant and well-organised bus service that made it easy to bring my bike back to Cork. The rather handsome fellow passenger who loaded my folded bike into the luggage bay was an extra bonus ππ Bus was full - V popular service! #BetterByBike

Winning at the #CarryShitOlympics tonight. The entire of the βbigβ Christmas shop onto the bikes. No parking woes, no traffic, a leisurely fifteen minute cycle home and even time for a pit stop at @SOMACOFFEECOLTD@twitter.com for coffee & mince pies. #BetterByBike #Cork @CorkCyclingCrew@twitter.com

If ever there was a time to make the argument for #BetterByBike then it's right now.
Had a couple of loose ends in various shops around #Cork yesterday and it was a joy to nip from one place and then on to the next.
Judging by the traffic gridlock around the quays and in Douglas, I must've saved myself at least an hour had I attempted the same list by car.
