  1. Evening #biketooter have you heard about Upride? upride.cc/

    A global site for uploading videos of all the close passes we #cyclists #bikecommuters experience.

    Might be useful to send to local governments when they get the inkling to paint a "bike lane" on a arterial road or remove a protected lane so less people can commute and more cars can idle.

    If you are a cyclist who has to deal with drivers, get some cameras.

  2. The one thing that really alleviate the pain of a day work trip to Paris is preserving my #BikeCommute to the office in the morning/evening rather than having to take a taxi. I can take my shower there and the station is then 2 tube stops away

  3. Are you ok? What were you really trying to say? Are you dismayed at the state of the infrastructure?

    Would you behave like that to someone on a motorbike? Would you bother to wind your window down on a cold or wet day?

    Thought not.

    Sadly, when sliding up the outside pf a queue of traffic, if you bellow

    "YOU... EFFING ... CYCLE"

    out of your window at me it's hard to have a reasoned conversation about any of these things,

    which is why I merely cupped my hand to my ear as the most universal do-it-all gesture for these situations and sailed smoothly past towards my destiny.

  4. Hypothetically, were I employed, today I'd send in my Cycle to Work Scheme quote for approval.

    Six chains, five tyres, two wheels, two gear cables, a cassette, a helmet.

    Save three tyres and a chain, based on past performance I reckon all that will be consumed by actual commuting.

  6. Not the biggest deal ever, but lol at the city has been replacing drainage near where I work and well, today it rained a bit. This is where one of the new drains is. 🤷‍♂️

  7. Strangely, seeing this chart in #HomeAssistant is a very strong motivator to keep me cycling the #BikeCommute throughout the year, whatever the weather

  8. Slight weather change overnight left me confused. So many pretty flowering trees in Centennial Park that I had to stop and admire them despite the cold. And a bus parked in the bike lane on the way home. #BikeTooter #BikeCommute

  9. Quick test ride today. Looks like we can get back on the #BikeCommute next week

  10. A big welcome back to all the fair weather boys and girls, and a friendly wave to all of you pulling your dusty bike out of the shed for the first time since last July because you want to save petrol. #BikeCommute

  11. There's this thing called #Frostpendeln which is all about showing that you can commute by bicycle through the winter. Here, this winter has been mostly Eisfrei compared with the hardcore Europeans and northern United Statesians but there has been a lot of Regnet in Strömen.🤿

    Stats for last winter:

    109 rides
    3430.7km

  12. CW: oblique mention of Valentine's Day, food, fitness related boasting

    Free good fings heute:

    1. Couldn't sleep, yesterday morning, so left 30 minutes early and hit the gap between the showers. Also despite the rain I managed to reach my target distance for the week, first time in a long time.

    2. today I successfully defended the secret storage location of Mrs Roach's flowers from Mrs Roach's intention to retrieve heart shaped crumpets from a nearby location for defrosting.

    2a. Crumpets for breakfast tomorrow!

    3. Mum is going to celebrate her friend's eightysomethingth birthday in Bristol for a week and Roach Major has sent them a list of attractions. (I hope the list was the studentiest list ever.)

  14. Made a split-second detour on my 🚲 commute to catch the sunset. Glad I did. Ended up spotting a trio of folks who were enjoying it just as much as I was. #BikeCommute #sunset

  15. 75 minutes of horizontal rain is assuaged by tea and crumpets #BikeCommute

  16. Heute das erste mal Frostpendeln bzw MdRzK (mit dem Rad zur Kita) für dieses Jahr, die Sonne und halbwegs angenehmen Temperaturen ausnutzen. Nur der Wind ist eisig und die Feldwege sind teilweise wegen Restschnee spiegelglatt.

  17. From last week's #bikecommute , another beautiful #kamloops sunrise along the North Thompson River.

  18. 🤯Ah, the quintessential tale of fiber optic #spaghetti turning into Smithereens 101. Apparently, a gentle bike pump tango was enough to unleash a spectacular confetti of fiber fragments.🎉 Let's all agree: the bomb shelter commute just isn't complete without some network carnage.🚴‍♂️

  19. Horrendous #BikeCommute this evening (last of the year for me).

    * The #CityOfLondon is full of drunken people. Some of them have been inhaling too much tabloid and will have an axe to grind with cyclists between two stumbles
    * I think the #Plods were looking for someone in the river
    * Phone at the wheel everywhere
    * Nearly T-boned by a delivery rider jumping red lights and saw another one escaping the front of a red bus.

    See you next year #London
