Such fun on the Critical Mass bike ride yesterday

For those that aren’t aware, the Brunswick and Coburg communities have been calling for accessible tram stops and separated bike lanes on Sydney rd for about 15 years now and action taken by government has been el nothing.

19,000 cars and 7,200 bikes use Sydney rd and the Upfield path each day but infra is only designed for cars
