“This law, which takes effect July 1st, allows #cyclists to treat stop signs as yield signs and red lights as stop signs when it is safe to proceed—helping to improve #safety, efficiency, and the overall #biking experience”

(Edit: Just passing this along, not doing the article.) Looking for #cyclists in the #EastBay to help a reporter (Cristina) doing a cycling and climate resiliency article:
“Hi all, I'm a freelance journalist putting together a story on cycling
for climate resilience publication Knee Deep Times
(kneedeeptimes.org). They're a SF Bay Area online news site focused on
infrastructure, science, and policy that will help the SF Bay navigate
and weather climate change.
“I'm writing about cycling and ways to encourage it or make it easier
and safer through infrastructure. Have talked with a Bike East Bay
representative and got some useful info about the upcoming greenway
path from Fremont to Lake Merritt BART, but would love to hear more
perspectives, anecdotes, etc to fill my piece out into a story.
Something interesting, some kind of intriguing character who bikes or
story about someone's cycling adventures.”

#Scotland: #ScotRail has launched a new #Cycle Hub at Inverness station, enhancing facilities for cyclists. Funded by the #Scottish Government’s 2023 UCI Legacy #Cycling Investment Programme, the hub offers 100 additional cycle spaces and a maintenance stand for basic repairs. Located at the Falcon Square entrance and monitored by CCTV, the hub increases the station's total bike storage capacity to 148 cycles, with an extra 48 spaces added nearby.
To celebrate the opening, pupils from Culloden Academy created artwork inspired by the local area, which now adorns the hub's exterior. Additionally, a Brompton bike hire service is available, allowing rentals via the Brompton app or website.
David Lister, ScotRail's Safety, #Sustainability & Asset Director, expressed enthusiasm for the new facility, highlighting its role in promoting active travel and making cycling more accessible for commuters and leisure #cyclists.

The #European Commission reports a 3% decrease in #EU road fatalities in 2024, with approximately 19,800 deaths, 600 fewer than in 2023. While this marks progress, it is still too slow to meet the EU's target of halving road deaths by 2030. The reduction varies significantly across member states, with countries like #Belgium, #Denmark, and #Poland on track to meet the target, while road fatalities have risen in #Ireland and #Estonia. Rural roads remain the most dangerous, with men and older adults being the most affected groups. Vulnerable road users, especially #pedestrians and #cyclists, account for a large proportion of #urban fatalities. The EU aims for a 50% reduction in road deaths and serious injuries by 2030, with the long-term goal of zero fatalities by 2050.

When will #cyclists realise they cannot pass pedestrians millimetres away at 30km an hour?
Not only is it highly dangerous, but it’s absolutely terrifying for the victim. I am still shaking.
