  1. I did bike things this evening! My tires were SUPER flat (one was at 10 lol) and my front brake was...wonky. Husband mostly fixed them while I sort of helped and found the right hex wrench (with a fancy handle!).

    She could definitely still use a full how's yer mum onceover, but for now? She's perfect. Now waiting on husband to get one so we can toodle around together.

    Also ordered a basket and bell! #Bikestodon lol what are the appropriate HTs here for bike stuff?

  12. Always surprised to read these glowing reviews, and their focus on weight. Only to notice that my 40 year old steel road bike is only 200gr heavier than the entry level bike (and I could probably get there if I upgrade my cockpit and seat post to carbon). 🤷‍♂️

  17. This is why I have hope for the US. You see politics infiltrate in other discussions and topics. You see this in Ars Technica and Wired coverage, but also this one in the bikepacking community. People don't let this slide anymore. For many this isn't just news anymore, this is personal.

  22. It turns out it was all a waste of paper and a waste of my time taking part in the consultation. The council now say regarding the Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council Cycling Strategy: "Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, as a district local authority, has no responsibility for cycling strategy and, therefore, does not hold the information requested."

    "Vision Zero doesn’t discourage people from moving by a certain mode. It demands we make movement safe," Bidgood said in one post. "Winter cycling is only ‘unsafe’ when the city chooses not to maintain safe conditions. Not maintaining infrastructure and then blaming the people who use it is the opposite of Vision Zero."

  30. #Basingstoke Borough Council's 2016 Cycling Strategy had a target to double cycle trips to work over 10 years. I should probably contact them to ask how that's going given that between it and the subsequent LCWIP, nothing really has changed in terms of producing joined-up high quality cycling infrastructure.

  35. And just like that, Guelph bike lanes will no longer be plowed.

    An entire mode of transport has been made less accessible and more dangerous as cyclists will be forced to ride in the middle of the road with limited daylight.
