Photo of a black specialized diverge gravel bike leaning up against the trunks of two trees next to a trail in a forest. The fourth floor is covered in a blanket of wet red autumn leaves. The photo was taken from behind the bike, such that we can see the wet trail zigzag up a hill behind it. At the top of the hill are some evergreen trees that stand in contrast to the autumn colours below. The tree is on either side of the trail are tall and slender.

A RIH Sport bicycle from 1982. It's just come in for repair. There is no rust. All that I had to replace was a broken snelbinder / rubber strap over the rear carrier and the skirtguards, which had perished due to age.

While your article mentions a lot of different materials, it doesn't actually look at what safety cycle helmets offer. Hint: FAR less than you think.

From leather strips to polystyrene foam: A materials engineer explains how bicycle helmet materials have changed to meet new safety challenges as cycling evolved: buff.ly/4fTsTbv #cycling #helmets #safety

From using plant rinds to high-tech materials, bike helmets have improved significantly over the past 2 centuries

As roads have evolved, so too have bikes and bike helmets.

There's something wrong with these numbers. (see image) #DPOS #GreenTransport #BilangSiklista #cycling #cyclists #bikes #bicycles #Philippines
Screenshot of a social media post from the Green Transport Division saying the Bilang Siklista volunteers counted 271,555 cyclists (not specified where but probably in the National Capital Region of the Philippines) with 97% male and 3% female, and 56% helmet users.

"Governments Should Start Paying People to Bike to Work"

🙌 for data-driven solutions! Drivers should love this! Every commuter on a bike is a car that isn't on the road, taking that lane, in that parking spot, blocking that turn ...

Governments Should Start Paying People to Bike to Work

In North America, where cars reign supreme, an idea could gain ground like it is in Europe — we should pay people to bike to work.

A nighttime biking craze has sparked a backlash from Chinese officials concerned about traffic chaos and caught off guard by a surprise mass-cycle of university students — a demographic with a history of protest. japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/11/… #asiapacific #society #china #cycling #universities #students #zhengzhou #henan #kaifeng

Two years ago today, I wrote my first post on #Mastodon after lurking for months. I was welcomed in torrent of kindness, and am pleased to report my initial impression has held true.

I've found community among people who love #Running, #Cycling, #Ottawa, #Horror, and #FilmMaking here (among others).

We still have so much work to do to make this a better, safer place for all.

I have learned so much from so many.

Support your server! Thank you all.

Simple out & back to the nearest largest town. Had a nice coffee & a look about. Was cold to start with but soon warmed up. #biketoot #biketooer #cycling #Spain #Andalusia #Baza
Looking down on the town of Baza Spain
Found some Spain bike infra, apparently speed limit is 10kph 😲
Bull fighting ring, think its closed down (hopefully)

#Cycling #BikeTO #Photography #BikeTooter #BikeStreak #Autumn

Photo of a black specialized diverge gravel bike standing at the entrance of a metal footbridge. The bridge is rust colored, and has a slight arch to it. It has a roof made of crisscross metal beams. We are looking past the bike into the bridge and over the arch and at the end of the bridge, where there’s a small opening showing a tree with autumn leaves on it.

"Next time a council announces a crackdown on cycling due to the activity of delivery riders, perhaps have a think about why and how we have allowed companies to operate with a business model that is more or less predicated on mass illegality."

Speeding delivery e-bikes are a menace – but the solution isn’t to push all cyclists into the road

Birmingham’s plan to ban bikes from pedestrianised streets ignores the real problem of food couriers’ illegally souped-up cycles, writes Peter Walker, the Guardian’s acting deputy political editor
