Diary entry number 8 is a feeling I’ve been struggling for a while to fully put into words. I think this is the best way I could! For me - “home” means safety. And sometimes #T1D just feels “unhomely” I don’t know if others can relate - but found the words finally! 🤗

Ten years ago, the five Flanders provinces began an ambitious dream: a 2,800km network of cycle highways to connect all cities and towns in the region. With a full subsidy from the Flemish government, municipalities have now built 2,000km—like the 25km “F7” from Ghent to Deinze.

Ubiquitous across the Netherlands, "fietsstraten" (bicycle streets) retain limited access for cars but treat them as guests. Streetfilms (Now 1,118+ films!) spotlights the Belgian adaptation in Ghent; which improves walking and cycling while adding seating and green space. youtu.be/guWuStkvYIk

It's great timing that e-bike technology is improving at the same time so many communities are ready to reform zoning. E-bikes offer a viable option to driving for people who wouldn't even consider hopping on a normal pedal bike to get around.

July 20th, 1969 is a date that stands high in my life – it was the day that we, together as one people, achieved the greatest scientific and technological feat in human history. The specific role that Neil, Mike and I performed in the event was but one part of an immeasurably

If you have a few moments to listen to this interview as a parent with your child. Possible one of the best post race interviews I have ever watched #PlayOn

It is time for governments to alter their approach, release the handbrake and watch e-bikes take off alongside electric cars. Placed on equal footing, these two could achieve great things together. ow.ly/Afpb50TlFtx

Wellington city is doing something very few cities have ever attempted: Building a complete cycleway network from scratch. Here are three maps showing the progress.. Map #1: The future This is how it will look like once all the current bike lane projects are complete.

New “CURE” for Diabetes? A NEWS article in NATURE (nature.com/articles/d4158…) claims  woman reverses here diabetes with stem cell. The patient reported that she “can eat sugar now,” and “…enjoy eating everything — especially hotpots.”  Is this a “CURE” for T1D? Should we expect

Making family dinners non-negotiable has one of the highest ROIs of anything you'll do as a dad
