Thanks Ranty – and thoughts on pros and cons of this one?

Contender for one of the most uncomfortable places to cycle in Haringey?

Baffling: white bicycle logo painted on the road here in Wood Green. Hi @rantyhighwayman.bsky.social, thoughts?

1 in 4 Londoners more likely to cycle after Tube strike A poll by Lime and YouGov found that 28 per cent of Londoners are more likely to consider cycling in the future due to the disruption

YouGov survey of 1,000+ Londoners, post-tube strike said 1/5 cycled during strikes, 1/4 will now cycle more, with ~35% of central & East Londoners embracing cycling. Those areas tend to have more safe cycle routes generally than other areas of London currently.

I’m down at the Oxford Street car free day and I can already tell this is going to be an exceptionally joyous event. I’ll share some highlights!

Loved the hubbub of people and music rather than motors!

Birch trees temporarily enhancing Oxford Street

Great to see you there Carla – and thousands of others enjoying the street without any motor traffic, plus some welcome silver birch trees!

Me on Oxford street

Ermygadddd, I’ve been on Oxford Street with my daughter today as it’s been traffic free.

What a total buzz 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

All we could hear was people chatting and laughing, and not ONE engine. It was delicious. And of course people are here in huge numbers. … 1/11

Sooooo heart warming ! What a super ride for everyone - what's not to 💕!

Looking forward to next year's Safari ride and hopefully seeing the major safer cycling improvements promised by @mikehakata.bsky.social

WELL NOW!!! I don’t know who the heck edited this video together but they did a rather smashing job 😉😉

Give it a watch folks! Last week’s Haringey safari ride, to everyone’s favourite song right now.

We got an amazing turnout, because People Love Cycling. … /1

We love the new safer crossing on Essex Road - now let's crack on with C50 at Finsbury Park where it remains unfinished, dangerous and seemingly ignored by decision makers

Thanks to everyone who came along to yesterday's ride and the volunteers who made it such a big success. We'd love to see more cycle friendly infrastructure in Haringey, making it safer for everyone to cycle around the borough and not just on our #communityrides

Cycling along Green Lanes There is growing impatience and frustration about the Council’s lack of action on improving cycling and pedestrian safety on Green Lanes.*  This mounting conce…

My Ham and High piece has been featured on Harringay Online and has 5 pages of comments.

What I’ve realised recently is how many regular folks around here are looking for a safe cycle route. A local mum told me in the playground the other day that … /1

Great to see how you've ignited the discussion Carla.

@willnorman.co.uk's latest map highlights the big hole in Haringey: no new cycleway network here in a decade – Green Lanes is glaringly absent.

Has Haringey's Streets for People plan stalled? Political will?

Professor Ian Walker was inspirational at yesterday's conference at London's beautiful Guildhall. His allotted time was way too short - could have listened to him all day. 🙏🏻 #motonormativity

Great presentation by the LCC Women's Network at the 2025 London Walking, Wheeling and Cycling Conference. Well done Kate! 👏

Reminder: London's Cycleways need to be routed through safe places - eg not parks - to work for everyone 24/7 🚨

🤔 Tube strike forcing you to rethink the commute?

🚴 Don't put yourself through the painfully slow bus or the painfully overpacked train - make the most of the September sun and ride into work!

You never know, you might actually enjoy it... 👀

A road with a zebra crossing on it and two lanes in each direction with a central reserve between the directions. Traffic is at a standstill on the nearside.

Amazing to see the Embankment cycleway in Central London hitting capacity on roughly a quarter of the width of wheeled traffic space. Here's what it looked like before.

Cities can change and cycling is a *key* part of the transport mix.

Imagine going in a shop and seeing a sandwich labeled "£1.99 or £4.50 depending what time it is. You'll be punished as a thief if you pay the wrong amount but we won't tell you what time the prices change". That's the UK rail system that is

We had a magical moment in the park on Wednesday night. Just look at this!

It was the first day back to school, and after a big early evening rainstorm, we dashed to the new playground at Tambo Rec to have the zip wire to ourselves.

We were the only ones in the park and -/1
