Een zeer heftige column die binnen komt en schreeuwt om actie maar vooral dat we voor achter en naast Marijn en anderen moeten staan
Stel je voor dat je drie weken lang met De Avondetappe mee mag als analist, tijdens de Tour de France. Stel je voor hoe fantastisch dat is, als je zoveel van wielrennen houdt als ik.
Stel je voor dat je dan grensoverschrijdend gedrag meldt.

Wow, finally. It has been a long 7 years of lobbying. Effective April 21, 2021, the PST exemption has been expanded to include qualifying e-bikes and e-trikes. Also, conversion kits used to electrify conventional bicycles and tricycles.www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/ta…

The more we study the Netherlands’ systematic approach to road safety, the more we appreciate its near-perfect application of the Hierarchy of Controls.
“Low car” streets are the most effective way of minimizing exposure to risk. Helmets are the least.

Still cycling on Vancouver Island enjoying the social distancing. Almost feels that motorist are given us a wider berth when overtaking us!! From the 65+ oasis in Oceanside. Be Smart, Stay Active! And Smile!

Bike repair is rightfully on this list of essential services in times of crisis. Thank you to all the mechanics and staff of bikeshops everywhere.

Why did we pack up and move our family halfway around the world, uprooting our lives and immersing ourselves in a new language and culture?
To paraphrase Pete Jordan: “So we could get stuck in a bicycle traffic jam at eight o’clock.”

Way to go Kelowna. You would think with 50+% of the people over the age of 60 in Central Vancouver Island we would have Cycling Without Age up and running! No such luck. Hope you do well

The most important document that Canadian City Planners and Engineers should study and learn from.
In general, Dutch planners identify six categories of cyclist; people that whilst riding their bicycle have different needs and wants.
These groups all need to be thought about individually for road safety, as they have different requirements and wishes.

Way to go Saanich, let's hope that other communities on the island follow suit. Nanaimo perhaps?????
Last night #Saanich Council supported the proposal from myself, @RJMersereau and @zac4saanich for an additional $2 million into active transportation infrastructure!
A step in the right direction to make our roads safer & more accessible for all.
