  3. Crashes at Lavenders Bridge, North Bellingen

    * Just a short time ago two women were killed and another seriously injured after a motorist 'lost control' near the notorious Lavender Bridge and smashed into two cars parked at the riverside swimming spot. >>
    coffscoast.newsofthearea.com.a

    * Today there was another serious incident involving two e-bikes. An ambulance was seen at the crash zone. An injured person was seen lying on the ground. (The ambulance is visible on the Kombu Flood Camera at 2026-05-24 11.26 ) >>

    * In the design of the new 'Lavenders Bridge Replacement' bikes and foot traffic do not seem to be a feature. A lot of bitumen was smeared over the river banks to facilitate the convenience for cars (parking).

  8. The long road to a bike-friendly Australia
    and the dehumanisation of cyclists

    * "At the rate Australian cities are building cycling networks, a cohesive system is probably decades away. What’s taking so long?

    "NSW wants to double active transport trips in 20 years...But at the rate Australian cities are building cycling networks, a cohesive system is probably another 50 years away, experts speaking to The Fifth Estate warned. Progress is slow. (One bike bridge was recently installed in Melbourne after 37 years of lobbying and discussion.)"

    "A 2024 report by The Australia Institute points out that less than 1 per cent of federal road funding goes to active transport infrastructure."

    "Richter was one of 49 bike riders who died on Australian roads last year, up on the average of around 38 deaths per year between 2012-23. (Thousands more were hospitalised with serious injuries during that period.)." >>

  22. So it's Sunday. Wasn't it just Friday? Where'd the weekend go? 🤷‍♀️

    Anywayz, today it's a short #bike ride for some nice breakfast, and then to church.

    Treating myself real nice because I've been extra good the past 2 weeks.

    3 gym sessions x 2 weeks!
    😊👍

    Sitting next to the window. I look and more cars have arrived. I see the space between the parked #cars and... I'm so glad I can come here on a #bicycle! 😂

    Our favorite #BikeAdvocacy task is direct outreach by bicycle! The 16th anniv gallery bikemonterey.org/16th-annivers is a sampling of people we met each of the past 16 years.

    Among them: #PeopleWhoBike for #transportation, recreation, who bike to #protest rallies, bike to #FarmersMarkets, bike to #surf, #BikeToSchool and #BikeAndRide for a #DadAndDaughter date, #BikeToWork (and yes, pedaling in a business #suit is no problem for him), #HandCycle bike to exercise the #dog, bike to #travel long distances / #BicycleTouring.
