Just a reminder that if the @RoyalArmdCorps in a slow moving tracked armoured vehicle can pass a cyclist safely so can you in your car, van, bus, truck and even those pretend off road thingies.

Festive 500 Ride 4 🚴🏻♀️ Really enjoyed today’s ride on a route that I plotted last Christmas as a backup route (but didn’t use) 🐦
ALT A screenshot from Strava. The ride is titled with a bird emoji and red and brown circle emojis, and is 51.29 miles. The route is shaped like a Robin and has been coloured in with a brown body, red breast, a black eye and a black beak.
ALT A woman in a white helmet, green and yellow jacket and black trousers holding a blue road bike in front of her. There is a brick wall in the background. There are drops of water on her helmet and her glasses are steamed up.

Festive 500 Ride 3 (holly not included) 🚴🏻♀️ A short ride today due to the fog
ALT A screenshot from Strava. The activity is titled ‘Christmas pudding’ and is 19.54 miles. The route is shaped like a Christmas pudding and has been coloured in, 2 leaves of holly have been drawn on.
ALT A large display of crocheted / knitted reindeer (5) and sleigh. They are outside on a grassy / muddy surface with a tree and brick wall in the background. There are knitted yellow stars hanging from the branches

"Drivers must not cut across cyclists"
In the UK, people riding a bike have priority over motorists trying to gun it and make a turn.

[Sigh] Cycling isn't anti-social behaviour. Cycling isn't anti-social behaviour. Cycling isn't anti-social behaviour.
Police should use existing powers to tackle illegal e-bikes.
Absolutely last thing Birmingham needs is to discourage cycling/sustainable mobility in city centre.

Between me being ill last weekend and it being too windy this weekend, I haven’t had a chance to ride any Christmas Strava Art yet so I went back to how my Christmas videos started with some music on the rollers 🚴🏻♀️🎹🔔

Birmingham could ban cycling in pedestrian zone over safety concerns.
As a cyclist I support this as we have a problem with Strava cyclists endangering vulnerable pedestrians.
After all pedestrians have priority and top of the tree ..

Between Monday 9th and Friday 13th December we'll be spreading the festive cheer 🎁 As all our buses will be free to use from 7pm onwards, with customers able to simply hop onboard and travel anywhere across the West Midlands! 🎄 Find out more here: bit.ly/4fHLQ1g

The importance of car parking spaces being available next to shops is often overstated.
A new @livingstreets report out today shows that pedestrians spend more money than people arriving by car, and pedestrianised town centres have higher sales.
