#Women & #Cycling 🙋 Deadline for comments - 9 October @edi.bike @chdot.bsky.social @edfoc.bsky.social @infrasisters.bsky.social @edcriticalmass.bsky.social @vickyallan.bsky.social @keithirving.bsky.social @sw20.info @kaykinoneill.bsky.social @katecampbellsnp.bsky.social @helenrambler.bsky.social

What's happening here? Maybe something changed part way through 2023 on urban/residential 30mph roads! I wonder if it could be that from Sep 17th 2023 95% of roads with a 30mph limit were changed to 20mph. #20splenty making your place an even better, safer, quieter, fairer place to be!

Reminder: new ride this evening! We hope to see many of you there

Rising food prices? Bikes are the answer!

Ready an other Critical Mass ride? Join us this Friday 2nd of October, 7.30pm, Middle meadow walk for an evening ride going through the city centre and finishing on Bristo Square! These Friday night rides will be slightly different from the Saturday ones, the music might contain strong language and the route won't be published ahead of time but expect a ~5miles (8km) city centre (Voi compatible) ride.

And here are a handful more photos from yesterday's ride! Also, contrary to what was mentioned earlier, our next ride will be this Friday evening 7.30pm starting from Middle Meadow Walk. After an experiment phase over the summer, Friday evening rides are here to stay!

Saturday's Critical Mass ride was outstanding. Lots of folk really savouring a beautiful day as the year turns to autumn. Looking forward to seeing you all next ride on October 31st at 2pm

If you want to help out with any aspect of the ride, please get in touch. There are loads of little bits that need done like route ideas and making graphics and things on the day. There's a planning meeting on Mon 28th in Edinburgh University Library George Square, room 1.10 at 7.30pm

Beautiful autumn afternoon for the September Edinburgh Critical Mass ride yesterday. Enjoyed the company and seeing parts of south Edinburgh that I hadn't seen for a while. @edcriticalmass.bsky.social

New Critical Mass this very Saturday, 2pm from middle meadow walk. This time we will ride towards Cluny Gardens and King's Building. A route used by many students daily but that could be made a lot safer for cycling.

If you've never taken part in a Critical Mass ride, we ride as a large group every month to peacefully protest for better and safer cycling infrastructure in Edinburgh. Join us every one is warmly welcomed!

Porty Community Energy teamed up with cargo bike libraries across Edinburgh and the Lothians to organise a FREE Cargo Bike Carnival in the Meadows on Sunday 11 October. bike-carnival.eventbrite.co.uk

Extreme weather makes The Bike Station’s mission even more important. Worsening climate has flooded the Bike Station and they need to clean up their workshop. They are a charity doing good work, including the Wee Bike Library and they need our help. www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/keep-us-ro...

Thank you so much everyone for joining our August rides! It was super nice to see good turn around on both Friday and Saturday and enjoy the late summer shine. Here are a few photos from Saturday. See you next Month or maybe before that for an other impromptu Friday ride?

Some photos from August ride to Porty @edcriticalmass.bsky.social. Slow going at times but lots of riders and one pet passenger. Prom full of buskers and a band. City centre heaving with last of Festival folk. #criticalmass

If you want to help out with any aspect of the ride, please get in touch. There are loads of little bits that need done like route ideas and making graphics and things on the day like doing the safety brief. There's a planning meeting on Monday in Edinburgh University Library room 1.10 at 7.30pm

Sorry we didn't see this in time to reply. We went out the south route and back the north route. I hope you caught us!

Thank you for the tip! We got through them ok today and had a lovely time on the ride.

Good turnout at @edcriticalmass.bsky.social today. Great speech from @lorenzomartinico.bsky.social on what action's needed from the council to ensure streets are for people, not just cars. #criticalmass

As well as tonight, we have the regular Saturday Critical Mass ride, this time to Portobello. Getting out of the city while the Festival is on and getting some ice cream at the beach!

Beside the impromptu ride this evening (see last post). We will have our Monthly ride tomorrow, 2pm, from Middle meadow walk! The 9.3miles (15km) ride will have a wee break on Porty beach to enjoy the view and maybe get an ice cream? Looking forwards to seeing many of you tomorrow!

Earlier this year we had an exhibit in Edinburgh about protests. Mainly about how the advent of photography affected them. One of the stories was the Suffragettes using bikes as a force multiplier. Accessible and agile, they could secure the next reception in a time before mobile phones.

Like planting a tree in the hope someone will get to sit in the shade, the page for requesting cycle hangers in your street is here: www.edinburgh.gov.uk/cycling-walk... Delivery is based on demand and a few other factors, but the only factor we control is demand so everyone at it now!

It is perhaps not totally surprising that avoiding filling the lungs of children with pollutants and particulates makes their lungs work better, but it's important to do the science and get the numbers: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Cycling is beneficial to both the cyclists and the people around them, but you don't get all the available benefits if half of people are afraid to ride. The obvious way to improve safety is to build cycling infrastructure. #cycling

🎺🚲 Musician and composer Dan Abrahams will be singing his cycling songs live at the Pianodrome in Bruntsfield this Sunday at 1pm, and it’s free! Here’s his most recent: https://youtu.be/nTma5W3P-ps?si=j0-Jpf5AU9satusA Tickets: https://www.citizenticket.com/events/pianodrome/cycling-songs/
