Despite ubiquitous posts about it on Twitter, and the ridiculous amounts spent recently, cycling is declining.

The peak during the pandemic as people took it up has all but gone now deciding instead on more practical, safer, more
comfortable modes of transport.

Quelle surprise

I will never forget the day one of my colleagues appeared at my office door magenta head to toe…

Thanks, there's an open case already so hopefully it will be resolved soon. You can't operate this way with consumers, the dispute case refers to 'DUTY B2B' so I guess somewhere you assumed this was a B2B not B2C shipment, it isn't. But it explains your error.

Misleading DHL Express UK today suggesting that I amn't paying you, but rather paying HMRC...

No, You paid HMRC, without my instruction to do so I might add. That's your fault, not mine.

You cannot 'back charge' - as you put it - a consumer weeks later!

Seriously, who hires truck with no brakes?!

(*realised the earlier version of this rant would cause confusion. I'm referring to scenic trucks, not road going trucks - one is rather more regulated than the other.)

One thing you notice having a car with a ridiculous number of sensors... It's only 17ºC outside here, but it's a sunny day. The interior temperature is 43ºC.

She was NOT happy to see me but we should have some new Great Tits soon.

100x more deaths by motor vehicle.

323.8 billion vehicle miles by motor vehicles, 3.9 billion vehicle miles by bike (and far less in 2013!)

Makes sense that 99% of deaths are caused by 98.8% of traffic?

Cycling causes very few deaths, but also represents very little traffic
