Oh god yes. There are so many tourist and other high traffic areas all over London that could benefit from this.
Cramped footpaths no longer. Camden Council plans to pedestrianize the street in front of the British Museum.

Another central London street transformed with a filter and added gardens, preventing rat-running, noise, and danger. Chef’s kiss, London. Thank you, Camden Council, don't stop.

'No one cycles in rain/winter' - strangely not something usual anti-cycling suspects say in London these days. 08:52, heavy rain, C6 shot from Holborn Viaduct. More cycles than track can cope with & than motor vehicles. Yet we still are struggling to get enough capacity. @londoncycling.bsky.social

Keep Hammersmith Bridge car-free ⛔🚲

There have been rumblings of a move to allow cars back on Hammersmith Bridge, (a terrible idea) - so we need to remind folks just how much support there is to keep it car-free!

👋 Come down to the bridge on Saturday and show support: bit.ly/4b9o6DR

Morning drivers, as you head to work this week, please use your speed limiter. It improves your safety and has a calming effect on surrounding traffic, reducing the impact of the irresponsible. In UK, over 15 people a week die in speed-related crashes. Guidance attached:

Join us for a friendly bike ride to explore the local area, keep active, build cycling confidence and have fun.
We usually cycle about 5-6 miles (2hrs) and always have a longer stop at a café when we reach halfway.

My recap of 2025 best moments.

The last 12 months have been a lot of fun.

My Brompton Bicycle and all the adventures we’ve had reminds me just how much joy cycling has brought into my life giving me a sense of freedom, adventure, and connection to the world around me.

Happy New Year to you all!😁

Germany shifts over 2 million e-bikes every year. France: over 500,000.

Britain? It will be lucky to get to 150,000. Why?

Because people need to feel safe to cycle, and that requires serious and sustained government support, which has not been forthcoming.

Cycling is changing at speed – but is Britain keeping pace?
Emulating the bike-friendly highways enjoyed by our continental neighbours will take a lot more money and political will

There's no single mobility aid that works for everyone.

That's why we'll keep working to help make a world where all #Disabled people can use their ideal wheels to get around.

Wishing everyone their ideal wheels in 2026!

Our local council rent out these great e-cargo bikes (pay per 15 mins, ~£5 per hour) which are so useful - this is from the weekend using it to take some bits to the local tip (which if you do by bike you don't need to book or queue for which is another benefit!)
