Lap the Lough What a great event. Brilliantly run and everyone was so friendly. If you could sort the weather out for next year, that would be great!!

This pic was taken by Martin at the Antrim Castle halfway point stop. (His final time for the event included his pit stops as he forgot to start/stop his Strava!) An amazing achievement especially cycling in the very wet weather yesterday!

Most of Lough Neagh's problems boil doing it fundamentally being a public asset and, at the same time, not being treated as such. Stormont's shallow gesture politics - and magical thinking around the lough's predicament, more widely - is serving it poorly. Me in Irish Times Opinion

Lap the Lough Did a cycling holiday at the start of July around Lake Constance, 3rd largest fresh water lake in Europe and it's absolutely pristine. Would make you weep for the toilet we've been left with there.

A Co Down grandmother who wanted to offer MLAs a taste of her toxic ‘Lough Neagh Smoothie’ has been escorted from Parliament Buildings by police. Donaghadee pensioner Bea Shrewsbury aimed to highlight the lough’s plight by bringing a bottle of her own specially branded water

Can NI Assembly Committee for Infrastructure ask Department for Infrastructure to do a pedestrian & cycle count on these new “active travel” projects to determine effectiveness? How much modal shift has this generated in these areas? Given latest NI Audit Office report – is this value for money? Peter McReynolds MLA Deborah Erskine

Great spin along the Boyne river in Drogheda, organised by Drogheda Cycling. It was part of the Irish Cycling Campaign x Cycling UK Northern Ireland “Cycling Across Borders: All Ireland Cycle Campaigners Conference” where cycle campaigners from across Ireland met for a chat (and some therapy!)
