When cities build protected cycle tracks, families don’t have to choose between safety and freedom. Kids can ride on their own, dads can hang back, and everyone gets where they’re going safely and comfortably. Safe infrastructure turns everyday trips into independence, not stress, yo!

Hey winter cyclists: the smartest thing I've done after threatening to do it for too many years was actually write down what to wear based on temperature. This helped immensely last year, and winter is coming 🥶

This bus-and-cycle expressway runs directly from Nijmegen station to the university and hospital in the south of the city. People on bikes and buses get there fast without delays, while motor traffic has to take the longer route.
