I går undrade jag varför Cykelfrämjandet inte reagerat och yttrat sig vad gäller försämringar för cykeltrafiken i Nya Slussen – landets i särklass största cykelknutpunkt.
Jag fick då veta att Cykelfrämjandet hade inte tid.
Här är några förslag hur Cykelfrämjandet kan få lite tid för stora och viktiga cykelprojekt runt om i landet.

Any pundit who is criticizing Pres. Zelenskyy's attire is failing to read the room, but moreover, they're just completely missing the point.

He's wearing the urgency of the moment.

That's the point.

@popcornreel Angel di Maria was clearly the best player until he was benched (and the game changed in France favour).

That Emi Martinez save in the 123rd minute saved Argentina and got them to PKs.

@rvaughnmd that's crazy. I've done vEveresting ones and that was quite enough for me. 😂

Toronto's curbside patios made 49 times more money than the parking they replaced.

“The key is to think of the street not as inherently being a space to park or drive cars, but as public space that can be purposed for any sort of public activity"

@jens_dekker on my instance nobody liked that post. 🙃
@jens_dekker haha, me neither. I think one can only see likes that are made by people on the same instance. My instance does not know the likes on your instance. I think.
