There will be the usual screams, but reducing motor traffic to all but the essential (in my mind, motorised transport for the disabled is, convenience is not), EV or fossil fuel can only be a good thing

Text reads


EV owners to pay London congestion charge from January 2026
Transport for London estimated there would be 2,200 more vehicles in the zone on an average weekday without the charge

Electric vehicle owners will pay the congestion charge in central London from the new year after Sir Sadiq Khan scrapped the exemption for battery cars.
Motoring groups accused the London mayor of taking a “backward step” after Khan confirmed that the levy will apply from January 2.
The congestion charge, introduced in 2003, covers an area of central

Magasins de #vélo : comment sauver le soldat #vélociste?

Finie l’embellie du marché du #cycle. En 2025, les dépôts de bilan de magasins de vélo dépassent les créations ! Comment un bouclard peut-il résister alors que le marché des vélos neufs tousse et que l’occasion lui passe en partie sous le nez ? Avec des consommables achetés en ligne et des heures d’atelier délicates à facturer, de nombreux rendez-vous vélo de proximité risquent de manquer à l’appel au printemps prochain. Et si le consommateur devenait davantage « consommacteur » ?

Cycling to work & a swim in the lake. Air 2°C, water ~10°C.
First swim after 3 weeks in tropical climate was more pleasant than expected. The sky celebrated as well.

I wish you a good start to the week!
Cycling to work and a swim in the lake on the way. Air 17°C, water ~21°C, no wind.
One of these kitschy mornings.

In unsurprising results it turns out that protected #cycle lanes produce more cyclists than buffered cycle lanes, and both encourage more commuter use than standard #bicycle lanes or sharrows.

Good morning to all!
Cycling to work and a swim in the lake on the way. Air 19°C, water ~20°C, some small waves.
Can recommend a swim in an open water. It is refreshing.

Guten Morgen euch allen!
Mit dem Velo zur Arbeit und unterwegs ein Bad im See. Luft 19°C, Wasser ~20°C, etwas wellig.
Kann ein Bad in einem Gewässer empfehlen. Es ist erfrischend.
