@discoveryplusUK @discoveryplus £400 a year for cycling, when I’ve no interest in the other sports on TNT? No thanks.
Cancelled.
Digital streaming should offer more choice of tiers, not less.

@cctvidiots 100% drivers fault. Driving much to fast for the conditions with parked cars both sides on a residential street, not anticipating the situation.

@CllrMichaelLong We reserve closed streets and pavements for car parking here.

Over the years, we have made some significant changes in Wales:
🚭 smoking ban
🛍️carrier bag charge
❤️organ donation law
🚗and now, 20mph.
When we look back on the change to 20 in future, we expect it to help create safer streets and healthier communities.

Slower speeds save lives! 🚑
From 17 Sept, most 30mph limits across Wales will change to 20mph.
At 20mph, it’s safer for everyone where we live, work and play.
Let’s look out for each other.

The @INEOSGrenadier has landed 💪🏻 There’s a fine line between madness / genius and this car is owning it 🫶🏻

After having ridden on UK roads, I'm surprised they found enough roads without major potholes in the UK to host a cycling race. #Glasgow2023

@Kaner1972 Glad to see Pog win, not sure why Jonas so defensive on the stage - would have liked to see him race it.

@SorchaEastwood All the best with fighting this @SorchaEastwood, terrible news

@DrKnowItAll16 If you think a Tesla’s good, you shoud try a push bike!

I just drove my mom’s (gas) car to pick her up at the hospital, and I have to say the experience was horrific. From having to crank the engine to no acceleration to very very loose suspension to knowing that I was completely on my own if anything went wrong it was really bad. After this, I can safely say that no one who has owned a Tesla would ever even consider going back to a gas powered car. Rest in peace ICE.

@Kaner1972 @combergreenway @ANDborough @deptinfra @SustransNI You think that’s bad, you want to see the Lagan Towpath. They don’t care.

Still a shame that this is the state of the @combergreenway between Billy Neill and Comber. Barely room for anyone, @ANDborough @deptinfra @SustransNI

@PodgeNB @NewtonEmerson Marked cycle lane 😂😂😂 - you tried it with the bins and cars parked in it?

How can Belfast's waterfront be blocked off all summer without warning? This is how people walk between town and City Quays and Clarendon Dock. The hotel restaurant and convenience store here need passing trade.

I can hardly believe this but this morning, before teaching the big fish, the cycle route has been blocked…. Until October!!! @deptinfra @belfastcc … the cycle routes of our city are a joke. I actually think you are taking the piss. @SustransNI @NBCycleCampaign @CyclingUK_NI

@Kaner1972 Today looked like a nice day but went out and… to windy 😂

@CircleLineBT We badly need Lisburn West over here, massive growth in the residential population and no improvement in transport links.
English

BUILD the Circle Line already, with a new station at Lisburn West, to get drivers out of their cars.

Another example of anti pedestrian road design in Lisburn. Make pedestrians wait twice, isolate them in the middle of a busy road with a metal cage for safety. Pure luck no one was killed when another incompetent driver hit this. Ballinderry Road/Knockmore.
