We started out in 2015 and encouraged local people to ride their bikes, we had a series of rides together. It's now time to build on that.

Replying to @StandishCCC @WiganCouncil
No response or update from @WiganCouncil with regards to the Line upgrade .. Remember all this as part of our Deal? Started in March 2016 with a proposed finish of summer that year - wigan.gov.uk/Resident/Parkin… - it's still going on .... great Deal eh?

After tweeting about how good our roads were earlier this year (they never were) I'd love to hear what @WiganCouncil think about them now. Massive dangerous pot holes all over the Borough.
The recent rain has washed away so many of the temporary patch ups .... the roads are bloody dangerous if you are on a bike. @WiganCouncil please fix for the long term.

It would be polite at the very least @WiganCouncil to answer on this important matter. Are we any nearer to the line upgrade as promised? @StandishVoice
Merry Christmas to you all and hopefully Santa brought you another bike 🎅🎄🚴

More thoughts for your Saddle Junction project @WiganCouncil xitter.cf/Chris_Boardman/status/…

This is what a cycle lane across a junction should look like 👇 xitter.cf/sustrans/status/925337…
We hope that includes investment in better cycling facilities, safer protected bike lanes and secure storage hubs. Watch those kids go then! xitter.cf/WiganCouncil/status/92…

The ease of a Dutch protected roundabout to keep all traffic moving safely and efficiently
Many people cycle because they don't have time for #GMCongestion. Want to cycle too? Demand safe #space4cycling at: tfgm.com/congestion

It is so, so, simple yet somehow, so hard to action. @peterwalker99 in The Guardian 👇

Promoting safe cycling in #Standish would help cut congestion, lead to healthier people and connect our green spaces. Sound good ?

Safe #space4cycling on all major routes would fix #GMCongestion and so much more. Let @MayorofGM know - survey at: surveys.tfgm.com/snapwebhost…

If you make cycling a 'normal' activity, more 'normal' people will cycle. Motor-dominated roads hurt our city and its people. #GMCongestion xitter.cf/coshgirl/status/923502…

Has this been factored into the new estates in #Standish ? It forms part of @WiganCouncil Cycling Strategy so it should have been. xitter.cf/GBCycleEmbassy/status/…

There are five times as many bikes as cars in Copenhagen. Think about that in terms of safety, health, air quality, inclusion. #WinWinWinWin
