That area is so grim. It could be something special but they need the mud for people who don't want to pay for the underground parking in their buildings (oh and construction workers).

Thank you for highlighting again the lack of commitment from the city to support non-motor vehicle related winter infrastructure: buried cycle racks, inaccessible bench, and covered footpath. It's so reassuring to know you understand the issue! #Autowa

So, will you tell us who the folks are in the pictures??!

Such a biased viewpoint. Imagine placing those "wait for gap in traffic" signs changed to read "wait for gap in pedestrians". There is another alternative that dare not be mentioned - have all vehicle lights on red to let pedestrians cross without danger, then restart traffic.

Pedestrianize Byward Market and Lansdowne*, (and add bus lane/s to Bank) and you have two major areas prioritizing people wandering and enjoying the city without worrying about being mown down.
I'll also call bullsh*t on it harming any of the businesses.

Literally accommodating distracted or aggressive drivers. What a f**king joke. #Autowa #BanRightTurnOnRed #BRTOR

An image of a section of a bicycle wheel. It has a black rim with an orange tubeless valve attached. The spoke nipples either side are a matching orange, whilst the rest are silver.

I also put a different colour spoke nipple either side of the valve hole. Because.

I can't wait to get back on the Brompton, but sadly a couple more months of snow and slush on the ground yet! πŸ˜”

What are you (or your social media team) trying to show here? The fact that your failures are being ameliorated by folks like Oat Couture who genuinely care about their community? And your smiling face next to the Alt Text free picture doesn't help.

Make sure you put one on when you get out of your car then. πŸ‘

Snowstorms are hell for wheelchair usersβ€”but they don't have to be "You can't physically move. You can't do anything."

β€œThe failure of…cities to adequately clear snow so that disabled people with mobility devices can safely get around is both an infrastructure failure and a policy choice, leaving those people stuck in one area and stripping them of their autonomy.”

It's fascinating that medics are making the effort to switch to anaesthetics with less greenhouse effect while people are driving alone in SUVs

Only when pedaling or whenever the wheels are turning? Disc or rim brakes? Salt has a habit of getting into brake calipers. Try flushing with a jug of warm water?

How about giving those caught the choice between the fine or points on their licence. Let's see which they pick...

Walked to Parliament, got straight on a train. Walked home from Tunneys Pasture in the snow along Scott faster than the traffic was moving. Zero stress.

I learned never to freewheel and risk pawls disengaging when things get really cold after a very long walk at -20Β°C. I was also given the advice to pee on the freehub (I did not take this advice).
