In its simplest form, #cycling is a metaphor for life's #journey. It teaches us #balance, #perseverance, the importance of moving forward, and the joy of the journey 🚲
Good morning #BikeFriends

Remember this? Paris is getting a whole new Metro network. It’s HUGE. And built fast.
“The venerable Paris Métro is about to get its most significant upgrade in decades with the Grand Paris Express, a new 200km system with 4 new lines & 68 new stations.”

What better way to close our time at Conbici’s Iberian Congress than with a bike parade through the streets of Santiago de Compostela?
Participants were joined by Galicia’s famous ‘Lili Cleta’—a mobile disco party that attracted plenty of smiles, waves, and singing and dancing.

The best time to plant a tree🌳 was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.

London can do it and has done since the 1970s. Why doesn’t the rest of the country deserve the same?
Great to hear from @livingstreets on this - and input to a new road safety strategy with @BikeabilityUK on @BBCBreakfast this morning.

It’s been four and a half years since the Government consultation on banning pavement parking with still no outcome.
“For most people, being pushed into the road to walk around cars is not nice. But for some, that is literally putting them off leaving the house.”

I was pleasantly surprised earlier this month to see so many people riding bikes in England, even where infrastructure was lacking.

It likes to pretend to be a purely technical discipline, but traffic engineering is deeply political. Don't be fooled!

The problem of too many cars isn’t just about the tailpipe. And altho EVs seemingly address that issue (or “move” it, depending on the electricity source), their increased weight, and the potential increase in size & distance driven (due to #JevonsParadox) make EVs “complicated.”

The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart govts do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath HT @modacitylife

A great book that received little attention outside of the planning world. This guy needs more speaking engagements.
