Peak entitlement, blocking the full path on Rochester Ave, Woodley, when approached met with verbal abuse @tvprp would you care to visit or send a pcso to give words of advice
In the @readingcycle news letter - "Cycle Hub
RBC remain committed to the scheme but are looking for a suitable town centre location." Funniest thing I have read in a long time......🤣🤣, so far taken them 4 years, RBC couldn't find their arse with both hands

It must have been closed for the bank strengthening works. I'll chase up reopening
Anyone know when this footpath will reopen? Think it was "temporary closed" due to works but its not been reopened? @cllrrobwhite @ReadingCouncil #footpath

Bike parking is not a problem.
Bike parking is an essential part of the solution!

13 (Thirteen weeks). The underpass at the station is taking 16 weeks. Countries build entire Olympic Villages in that time. Well, not quite but it's about as accurate a response to one of your FOI requests when we fob you off. #rdguk 🤡🥀
Replacement of Kings Meadow footbridge with a modern structure more than double the width begins on Monday. It will take 13 weeks and a temporary closure of the footway will be in place with a signed diversion across the meadow for pedestrians and cyclists rdguk.info/Kings_Meadow_foot…

For over 10 years campaign groups have been calling on the government to review road traffic offences.
With an election coming up, suddenly we are spending precious parliamentary time dealing with "cyclists" ignoring the 99.55% of the problem. 🤷♂️

Yet, when a Labour councillors does a traffic offence, let off scot-free. One rule for them and another rule for the rest. #rdguk 🤡🥀
@ReadingCouncil Just got a ticket for driving in the bus lane when just trying to turn into a side street. Your incessant road works was blocking entry to the turn lane as it's only 1 metre before the corner. The pic even shows intent. I've had enough of this trash from Labour.

@readingcycle there's a new hazard at green park business park where cars avoid the new speed humps by driving around them into the cycle lanes. Can this be resolved to make the existing cycle route safe for the bikes? No response from @GreenParkUK when I've raised the issue.

If anyone sees an old blue Raleigh up for sale please let us know. One of our organisers bike got stolen.
@rpvega
Abandoned lorry trailer, blocking drop curb from the cycle path @ReadingCouncil @readingcycle It's why we can't have nice things!

"We need more people cycling... but if you don't build infrastructure that's well-lit people aren't going to do it."
Well said Kat Heath 👏 @BBCSouthNews @WeAreCyclingUK @ReadingCouncil @livingreading @CllrJennis @KidicalMassRead @criticalmassrdg @CyclingReading @WestBerksSpokes

We totally agree with this! So watch this space for workshops where kids can learn to build their own bike and take it home with them.
