  1. I cannot understate how fun I think Marty Sears' "Rat Run" puzzles are, and I'm soooo stoked that season 3 is about to begin!

    What is this, you ask?

    It's a series of #Sudoku variation puzzles with a funny and clever story-line featuring the exploits of Finkz the lab rat (!)

    Love it, love it, love it! 😄

  2. Residents say Richmond Road rat run is dangerous for children as cars drive on footpaths. They ask for a one-way for traffic calming. Council says "Richmond Road does not form part of the core Dublin City Active Travel Network that has been prioritised for delivery over the next eight years". Time to get out and block the street, lads, like a local area here where bollards were installed after a series of weekly protests

  3. @ric_man As a lifetime vehicular cyclist, I still find the copenhagen lanes an arse pain when it comes to pedestrians thinking they're in a conversation pit 🙄 TBF, that's happening less now that they're doing them with full door width kurbing on the parking side.

    I #ratrun as much as I can. There's no loss of amenity to residents when cyclists shortcut through residential streets and I shaved 3km off a 26km ride from mine to a friend's, simply by replacing the motoring routes with a barely legal (for motorists, anyway) backstreets route. Best urban riding ever, and saving 3km is like having an eBike for 5km 😂

  4. it's on. Transportation Commission vs #ratRun

    "Google Maps and nav apps often direct northbound drivers to take Pearl instead of Broadway…Pearl isn't configured for thru traffic, so drivers have to stop at multiple stop signs and have to cross a few arterials without the benefit of cross traffic stopping — from what I see, the drivers cutting north on Pearl disregard those limitations and just roll through stop signs and cross aggressively against oncoming traffic…."

  5. A street #googlemaps will tag as having a dedicated bike lane definately doesnt mean its safe to ride on.

    The road pictured has painted sections that Im guessing are for no parking, they certainly arent wide enough to be considered a bike lane.

    This weeks #closepass on the #bikecommute was an SUV doing a #ratrun through the back of Cannington #perth . #cycling
