I’m a big fan of the plastic bollards and paint, the extravagant & inflexible concrete mega bike lanes time is over

I’m a big fan of the directness of this route.

It would be nice to see a future connection to the Alwins/Ensors road cycleway, which is currently in construction. A true network for the East!

I occasionally see the police on horses while out on a ride in Sydney. They feel like an anachronism to me but I’m no expert.

A few weeks ago while cycle touring in northern Thailand I had to overtake an elephant and mahout. I was lining up a slow overtake and photo of something unique for me and then a stupid dog decided I was a threat and charged out its property and started chasing, so here was me sprinting full gas uphill worried I was either going to get bitten by the dog or the elephant would react and chaos would ensue. Thankfully the elephant didn’t blink an eye and I had more endurance than dog.

In reply to Allan Taunt. That was a laugh emoji, unfortunately it didn’t come through in the comment.

Follow-up Dad joke thought: maybe we should categorise this as a NEIGHbourhood greenway… 🙂

I hope that the CCC see this. The transformation of Rimini is quite dramatic. If only we could do the same here!
