Half of drivers say they have "no alternative" but to drive, and are forced to spend 10-20% of income on their car. This isn't freedom, it's dependency. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023…

‘Entrenched car culture’ leaves millions of Britons in transport poverty

Remember I talked about improvements to Portswood in Southampton? There's a petition by people who support it. A good time to let the council know there's support for improving air quality: bit.ly/3gDhljS

This is Barry, he runs a gardening business from his cargo bike. He needs the fuel to run his lawn mower. I’d he doesn’t get the fuel, he can’t work and can’t provide for his family.

The reason why I love #cycling is that connects me with so many different people, no matter what ability. Yesterday’s ride with @waterrat77 & the local Hebden crowd was fabulous! And when Neil’s hand cycle broke down, a local farmer came to the rescue. Sharing spaces responsibly.

10 cars at a crossing is seen as congestion. 10 people at a crossing is seen as normal. Bias towards car-rights runs deep.
