On Yer Bike!

Thank you Dave Walker for putting it so clearly. Even Ferndown [not a city] is mostly a good place to pedal around in my lockdown exercise moments. However...

I hope that if the government is serious about getting more people out there on their bikes, they listen to the cyclists. It isn't just about the ciders wearing HiViz vests and helmets...

Wouldn't it be wonderful, if one of the outcomes of this strange time is that our towns and cities became much safe places for people to cycle? We cannot turn this country into a cycle-friendly place, like The Netherlands, overnight. A few painted lines, or cones or temporary bollards are just a stopgap measure - the longterm infrastructure needs to be considered carefully.
Manchester had already begun planning the Bee Network before we pedalled into this Covid Wilderness. I hope those plans are not shelved, and that other cities take note now
