  1. MG introduces the MG 07, an electric coupe that pushes the envelope with 700 km range and 250 km/h speed, aiming to rival Porsche’s Taycan. Is it a game‑changer or just hype? Your take?

  2. Revolutionary electric sedan of 960km per charge, blending stunning design, luxury interiors, and cutting‑edge tech. A new era for EV performance is here. #EV #Sustainability #FutureMobility

  3. The new video from Tom Babin(shifter)discusses about the places where cyclist're allowed to yield instead of stopping under "stop signs"
    It's a relevant step as yielding is safer when cycling than stopping (if not needed) as you already have high visibility (in contrast to when driving cars) and stopping completely reduces your acceleration (at the same time than spilling your energy for no reason)."Stop signs" were designed for cars&trucks mobility

  4. And finally they suggest five structural reforms.

    To ensure long-term impact, governments should:

    - Expand bike-leasing schemes through fiscal incentives
    - Allocate at least 10% of transport budgets to active mobility
    - Build continuous, high-quality cycling networks across all levels
    - Develop comprehensive bike-to-school programmes
    - Strengthen institutional capacity for active mobility planning

  5. Five immediate actions:

    - Reintroducing temporary "resilience bike lanes" by reallocating road space
    - Lowering urban speed limits to 30 km/h to improve safety and reduce fuel consumption
    - Providing targeted financial incentives for bicycles, e-bikes and repairs
    - Organising regular car-free days in cities and neighbourhoods
    - Promoting cycling tourism and improving bike access on public transport

  6. The European Cyclist's Federation(#ECF) ecf.com/en/news/cycling-manife suggests 10 measures to cut Europe's energy dependence (let's remember the relevance of transports, and cars specifically in our energy consumption: mastodon.social/@antoniovr/111) and leverage cycling.

    This is a relevant as most urban car trips are <10 km (many even < 5km),which are suitable distances for 🚲

    Urban trips mean <100km and are dominant in most countries (e.g.🇩🇪67%,🇮🇹81%)

  7. In mastodon.social/@antoniovr/116 (Spanish) I tell about my absurd experience trying to use #dott bicycles in Murcia to go to a wedding (after travelling there by train).One of the key issues was the malfunctioning of the zonal speed limiter that was continuously on and at 10km/h 🤦

    But mulling over it...Don't you think it is nonsense the idea of implementing speed limiters in bicycles or other light vehicles instead of in cars or vans, which are the ones causing the fatalities?

  8. Besides the release of emergency reserves, here are the urgent measures suggested by the International Energy Agency
    1. Work from home where possible
    2. Reduce highway speed limits by at least 10 km/h
    3. Encourage public transport
    4. Alternate private car access to roads in large cities on different days
    5. Increase car sharing and adopt efficient driving practices

    How many are being implemented in your countries?

  9. Last week in my way to a conference in Denmark I walked through a "green path" (the piece between Frederiksberg and Nørrebro). This kind of paths that cross #Copenhagen are really interesting to promote commuting by 🚲🚶‍♀️or even to go hiking& cycling for fun... #SustainableMobility #bicycle

  10. If more Red Counties and States stayed honestly focused on economics, housing, healthcare, and quality of life mobility and access projects like this we could all breathe easier.

    Greenville County, South Carolina’s “Freeway for Bikes”, primarily the Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail, a popular 28-mile greenway connecting Travelers Rest to Greenville along a former railroad corridor, but the county also develops local bike routes, like the one connecting White Horse Road to downtown for commuters, fostering a strong cycling culture with trails, bike lanes, and support from organizations like Bike Walk Greenville.

  11. #Roundabouts usually improve car traffic and make it safer but under typical design criteria, they lead to negative impacts to 🚲, as they increase risks and difficult cycleways integration, and to 🚶 that need to walk longer due to pedestrian crosses setbacks. The only exception to this are the"dutch roundabout" (low curvatureR+just a single lane out). In the images we can see the differences between the number of roundabouts in a(ny) Spanish city and Copenhagen.

  14. New paper out now!

    My co-author Meike Levin-Keitel and I have just published our article “Next Level? Civil society’s navigation of multi-level governance in the conflict over cycling conditions in Bavaria” in the European Journal of Spatial Development’s special issue on „Spatial Transformation from a Planning Perspective“.

  16. #Ballerup, a comune in #Copenhagens metropolitan area, will allow to turn right under red light to bicycles in most (20) of their traffic-light regulated intersections. Since 2016 comunes/city halls are allowed to implement this kind of exception.

    I know this is also usually possible in Netherlands and recently in some part if France. Do you know if it is possible in other European countries?

  20. The kind of 🚲+🚈 #intermodality in which one travels in the train with the 🚲 requires a comfortable access to stations and tracks with the bicycles. For this, elevators are needed (and they are a must for #accessibility), but also a comfortable access for the bikes through the stairs. In #Denmark, almost all train stations have these bicycle stairs. Such access ramps allow going up & down with the bike without bearing it.
