Important points in here in a month we’ve lost two more cyclists to HGVs. 1) Educate and prosecute encroachments on ASLs. 2) Employers must make HGVs safe and legal. Every chance Emma would still be with us if this had been the case at the time of her death

We had four Tandem pairs out on Friday's InfraSisters ride in Edinburgh, demonstrating for better cycling infrastructure so women can ride safely after dark.

An 11y old child cycling is killed by a truck- and soon after, councillors in Edinburgh vote *against* low-traffic measures that allow kids to walk and cycle safely to school. Amsterdam & Paris try to make streets safer, while Edinburgh goes other way. news.stv.tv/east-central/t…

We couldn’t run these rides without the fabulous marshals. You can spot them with their distinctive blue tabards. We recce the route, study the junctions, and the marshals (in teams) guide us through the streets/junctions in live traffic. We also get support from Critical Mass Edinburgh
