On the subject of #BikesOnTrains:
Did you know that it's now obligatory for train companies to include bike storage on every new train they build? That's an #EU law now!

Bike storage looks different depending on the trains, I've seen the both horizontal or vertical, like in the picture below.

Honestly very impressed with the south of France. Might have to plan a biking holiday there. If only it weren't for the nightmare of changing from the #Eurostar to #TGV in Paris.

Who doesn't love #BikesOnTrains?
I was on holiday in the South of France last week and spotted this beauty on a regional train. 🚲 🚆
Overall I was impressed with the quality of trains around there. Shame about the very loud obnoxious group of English tourists though, who spent the whole train ride discussing how drunk they had all been the night before...

Well done NSW Rail! Bike storage on trains. Not every carriage, nor every train, but some. It's progress.

Better than the antediluvian #Canberra to #sydney service.

(No snakey comments please. In the event another cyclist gets on I will remove all the baggage and stow mine properly. In the meantime the old truck is enjoying having the space to itself.)

My bike has its own reservation #commute #cycling #BikeTooter #BikesOnTrains

I'm back on trains today, trying to get from Freudenstadt to Donaueschingen taking my bike with me, should be 2 hours with one change. Except the middle of the second train is a replacement bus now.

Current plan is to try going as far by train as possible, ride over the "gap" and take a train on the other side again. Worst case ride all the way or sleep in the woods.

I am now on the train from Frankfurt Main to Paris (with stops in Mannheim, Karlsruhe, Strasbourg). It's the last leg of my trip from Wrocław (Poland). The train is a TGV Duplex.

On the platform I saw people disassembling their bikes so I would assume that there are no bike places. WiFi works. 10/n

Bike rescued from my office, chain lubed but left pedal did not like the 4 hours in the rain last week (neither did I). Otherwise shipshape. Going to off road it back from Greenfield for the first time this year. #BikeTooter #cycling #commute #MultiModalCommute #BikesOnTrains
