Even if you don’t cycle yourself, you will still get the advantages of other people cycling: better-designed streets for walking and public transport. Better pavements, better squares, and clearly you get less traffic ultimately. HT @stratageeb1

Train ridership in the Netherlands has doubled over the past two decades. This has been achieved not by increasing station coverage, but by increasing station access through targeted investments in cycling infrastructure, secure parking and shared bikes. peopleforbikes.org/news/utre…

Getting ALL the facts in relation to bike infrastructure & diverse transport infra generally, makes it clear it is not a favour to cyclists but a benefit to all transport modes & to a community's physical & economic health.
Many cycling projects don't get funded because politicians think costs are too high, or contribution to the economy negligible. But what if we get the numbers right, and show the value of the benefits created? #Bikenomics helps get cycling on the agenda. youtube.com/watch?v=54XQp7ss…

Cargo bikes & cargo e-bikes have the capacity to greatly decongest our city streets while also making them cleaner & quieter. Replacing trucks with fast, efficient, clean bikes for city centre deliveries is a change that benefits everyone!
While van-choked cities struggle to decarbonize logistics, México City’s freight cyclists deploy a simple solution to sitting in traffic. More a product of economic reality than innovative policy, they remind us of the potential to scale up existing enterprises and technologies.

Families around Australia are turning to e-bikes instead of second cars for short everyday trips. They are a healthy, fun and affordable option, but the benefits don't end there. Will you join the movement? ow.ly/ghyo50SQQ0p
