Bike Mayor Beth

Quite a big deal and a thoroughly nice guy…

Took out a visiting active travel campaigner for the Bike Mayor lowlights tour!

Absolutely - my e-bike changed my life after I became disabled by long covid.

Take that all the ‘but we need a big car to carry all the school stuff’ parents!

E-bike on an e-bike at the weekend 😃

Ahh…gone now, new hotel is open. I hate those murder strips with a passion, requested their removal - they kill 10%more people than not having them and do not encourage uptake. If they weren’t there some people could ride on the quiet pavements and some could actually position themselves better.

Absolutely- why I have formed Safe, Sustainable Travel Torbay. Been running Kidical Mass and doing lots of positive action. Which bit of Torbay Road?

Enjoy! Do let me know if you ever visit Torbay and fancy a ride!

Nothing in Torbay yet…sigh. Thanks for this map, super cool!

We have got to stop making this worse…pronto!!

Obstructive Parking forces Bus Rerouting…

Buses are being re-routed from two residential streets in St.Marychurch. The press have reported it like this: But we see it a different way... The electric buses may be slightly bigger (we haven't been able to get a straight answer on that). What has…

So sad to have to restart this blog already. In 2025 6 people were killed on the roads of Torbay, all of them vulnerable road users (travelling on foot, by cycle or motorcycle). We believe that a safe systems approach could eliminate road deaths and reduce injuries.

He knows, he is just mousing with you…

Such great news! Let the paint flow!

How to enjoy the Bay of Lights this year!

“Pay for an hour, stay for the day.” Torbay Council originally pitched this as something that would help everyone “enjoy all that Torquay, Paignton and Brixham town centres have to offer.”I am really pleased to see that wording quietly updated, because the…

No need to necessarily mention that when sharing! 😂

Switching 50km/h speed limits to 30km/h would protect cyclists while barely affecting commutes, research finds One expert says a cyclist hit by a car travelling 50km/h has about a one-in-ten chance of surviving, while at 30km/h it was a nine-in-ten chance

New study from Melbourne finds reducing residential speed limits from 50km/h to 30 km/h on local roads would protect cyclists from danger, make riding less stressful and get more people cycling while not causing traffic delays for cars.

No coincidence that they are denying climate change and trying to revoke climate emergency’s in local government organisations then…
