Man, it's busy out there.
I think we need to build some more lanes...

Integrated transport and cycle networks is such a beautiful and simple idea*. Who needs a car?
Off on a shelter tour by train and bike ...
*yes I know it doesn't always work perfectly, but when it does it's marvellous

I'm 40+ & owning a car in #Copenhagen would significantly *reduce* my #QualityOfLife - though thanks to #LetsGoDK #CarShare I can access one when I need.
But it's clear young relatives in rural #England are utterly #Car dependent. Without safe #CycleInfra even #Ebikes are far too dangerous.
The #Future is here, but it's not evenly distributed.
