Europeans know a thing or two about cycling, so of course we were excited to participate in #WorldBikeDay!

Last week, several colleagues rode across Washington to promote the bike as a simple, affordable, reliable, clean and environmentally sustainable means of transport. 🚲

No dia mundial da bicicleta, mostro as minhas 4.
Uma redescoberta relativamente recente, que alarga horizontes e combate muitos males.

Making it safe to bike everywhere, and de-emphasizing automobile traffic, benefits all* of us. People who didn't cycle before will prefer to run errands this way, take their two wheels to see a friend, etc. Happy World Bike Day!

*even those who will never ride can easily benefit from more common sense land use.

A few more of the recent tourer bikes about the place in time for World Bike Day.

The couple with the first two bikes had made it down from Belfast and were on the way back up along the west coast. They’ve fierce headwinds all day today but they got in a good feed before tonights destination.

A bit of Billie Nomates for #MusicWomenWednesday AND #worldbikeday 😁

"One time, I cycled all the way home
Cos this planet is our only one
But nobody saw it and I
I felt all the worse for it
... it wasn't my bike."

(I have to say, though, my favourite lines:
"Well, I wanna save the whales too,
But it's a fucking Wednesday afternoon")

Oooh, and another one for #worldbikeday taken at the less salubrious end of Brick Lane (always did prefer hanging out in the 'less salubrious' areas 🤪)

#worldbikeday apparently, so here's one from the archives...

NB. I wish people wouldn't call them 'Boris Bikes' ... Ken Livingstone conceived and announced the project, but the Buffoon took all the credit when he became mayor.

Boris got the nickname; Ken did the groundwork 🙄
