Hey #Auckland, this is a what a happy city looks like. Just soak it up a bit, then be #friding. #aklbikelife HT pōhutukawa 🙂 x.com/ElliotFishman/…

Priorities! Yeah and amen. x.com/twanduiv/statu…

And here's a cheery little Public Service Announcement tune from Robbie Ellis to be whistling while #friding. #Peace, people. ow.ly/MuLk30l2nCp

The data confirms that NZPolice in general don't have their heart in penalising civilised #cycling. There have been measurably large variations in application (Chch we feel for you) but the better focus is now surely to boost #safetyInNumbers ow.ly/U76F30lt74M

Look at this irresponsible guy! ❌ No helmet ❌ No hi-viz ❌ Waving & smiling instead of serious signalling ❌ Only one hand at handlebar ❌ Bag on handlebar Who it is, you ask? Well, just Mark Rutte, Prime Minister of the Netherlands going to work (pic: Dagblad van het Noorden)

Oh the #infrastructure! This playfully curvaceous dutch bridge design shows what real #cycling safety measures look like.

We've finished our mandatory helmet law policy review. It's time to relax the the laws and let people decide if they wear a helmet: bit.ly/2CUScef.

Close passes are intimidating, dangerous and, in NZ, completely legal. Patrick wants to change that: bikeauckland.org.nz/give-room-camp…

Australia's capital state has committed to reviewing their #helmetlaw. This follows the country's largest advocacy group Bicycle Network recommending reform. ow.ly/gT9F30nGeEM

If driving costs you $1, society pays $9.20. How much does your commute cost us? #CityMakingMath v/ @discourse_media movingforward.discoursemedia.org/costofcommute/

Just imagine putting this much money, energy, political will & space into walking, biking & transit infrastructure. There are hundreds of these, maybe thousands. They not only induce driving, they make cities think they can’t afford solutions that would actually work.

The argument about whether cars or transit or bikes are better for a specific kind of trip, or a specific kind of day, is usually a false debate. Smart cities give choices & make #multimodal trips, or days, or weeks, attractive. They support multi-modal citizens who can choose.

A very helpful thread from CB's ✧ Lisa ✧ with riding in mixed traffic in focus. Essential reading for anyone on a bike in…how can we say this? - English speaking countries. #aklbikelife #defensivecyclinghacks #auckland x.com/LisaCNZ/status…

#Auckland #tradies who happen to have a modest amount of kit to schlep around could take some inspiration from Davey here. #aklbikelife #ebike x.com/backonmybike/s…

Of course, Euro #tradies already get #quaxing.
