I ride a 12 speed because it’s fun, it gives me energy, and it’s a great way to stay in shape. #cycling #GoPro #Garmin

The Embankment cycleway (CS3) in London was purposefully built to be wider than was usual in order to future proof it.

Some said it would hardly be used.

Now there’s a decent case for widening it further.

Induced demand is real.

The push for nearly every cycling influencer to be advertising Van Rysel bikes is getting tiresome.

This is how I got into cycling.

Found some jumps in the local woods, leant how to do them from bigger kids.

Helped maintain them and teach others over the years.

Great overtake space, but I'm not really a fan of people overtaking at side junctions.

They are designed like that to help improve shifting. That part isn’t worn.

Part of the chain is also not sitting flush with the cassette.

Going to assume this is a good sign the cassette is worn.

Anyone seen this issue before where the chain grips the cassette?

So many dockless hire bikes that they go into the general parking bays.

Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe Euro NCAP will release new testing guidelines in 2026.

In 2026, cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn 5-star safety rating in Europe. New testing rules will be introduced that require vehicles to have physical controls to earn the highest safety score.

This is a good thing for public safety, and a bad thing for companies like Tesla.

Cycling home from work is such a great way to destress. The steady motion, the fresh air, and the quiet rhythm of the ride help shake off the day’s stress. The cool breeze and the changing scenery make the commute feel less like a routine and more like a well-earned reset.

The list goes on.

As a south Londoner I use the south based train stations, Victoria, Charing Cross, London Bridge.

Plenty of notice at these stations.

It’s only Euston isn’t it? I don’t see this at any other train station.

*I don’t use every train station in London regularly.
