It takes less time to warm up on a bike than it takes to warm up your car. #wintercycling

For many people cycling is easier and more comfortable than walking. This is why cycle routes need to be accessible to all kinds of people and all kinds of bikes. Cycling can and should be for everyone and cycling infrastructure needs to enable this #BikeIsBest Image @davewalker

To paraphrase @dirkjanjanssen: It rains 217 days per year in Amsterdam. Its residents cycle 365.

Tell me this isn’t the best “traffic” you’ve ever seen. A school “bike bus” in Barcelona, happens each Friday & has been growing from an initial 5 kids when it started. Safety in numbers — do you really think you couldn’t do this in your city? Via @lljunca

Cycling trips made by women in England rose 50% in 2020, but often women are underrepresented in so many aspects of cycling.
This is why today #BikeIsBest launches new ads at UK city locations and shopping malls, showcasing women who cycle, alongside our key campaign messages.

Acting as an elegant gateway to the small town of Oirschot is a beautiful wooden walking and cycling bridge: the Stönner-Meijwaardbrug.
The gentle incline provides easy accessibility for carriages, mobility scooters and wheelchairs; while the steps offer pedestrians a shortcut.

Last month, Utrecht cut the ribbon on the world’s longest rainbow cycle track.
Dreamed up by a student, the five meter wide, 570 meter long path runs through the heart of the university campus as a symbol for diversity and inclusion.
Join us for a ride along its entire length.

How many more people would cycle if your city’s streets were this inviting?
How many would leave their cars at home if their choice was made this easy?
Don't design streets that make the 5% already biking marginally safer. Build them to entice the other 95% back on their bikes. – at Delft, Nederland

👧 Say hi to Daisy Adams (@biker_tiny) who got on a #bike for the first time at just 7 months old!
🚲 ‘We got her a pedal bike when she was two &, within 2 months of practicing, she #biked off - she just couldn't stop!"

Utrecht’s Dafne Schippers Bridge follows in the Dutch tradition of working together to find space-efficient design solutions.
An elementary school acts as the on-ramp to a newly-built bike crossing of the Rijn Canal, complete with cycle path on the roof!

This is bikepacking seen through the eyes of the riders of PCR Gravier.
Warning: This video will give you wanderlust and may lead to some rash decisions to forget working life and skip town with your bike

Just announced: We’re installing six new safe cycling links!
Not in the coming months, but over the next few weeks – so Sydneysiders can get back to work on their bike.

I love @Treadlie the Australian cycling mag because it assumes you’re interested in biking around but you’re not necessarily a 160-km a Saturday road warrior, you could just like commuting. Such a treat via the essential Postie.
