Breaking down barriers
We hear you! “I would probably say Muslim women, BAME (black, Asian, and minority ethnic) women, women of colour on top of that they’ve got religious barriers, they’ve got cultural barriers, they’ve got clothing barriers.” says Shgufta Anwar of the Hijabi riders group. There are many barriers to cycling for some people. To adapt and overcome is the only way forward. Read all about the amazing Hijabi riders group here: https://buff.ly/35ZXpSL

London bike routes
Is this a great idea to identify the best cycle routes? Time will tell. Anything that helps people choose to cycle over using their car for short journeys is good in our eyes. Route Plan Roll has been set up to encourage and support those who want to make their next trip by bike in London. The site identifies the best cycle lanes to use. It then presents this cycle lane network in a handy, quick to understand map that you can download and keep to use when you want your next trip to be by bike. One less barrier.

School bikes
We have often wondered if this was feasible – to travel from school to events like swimming outings by bike instead of bus. What with a crammed curriculum as well as maybe some health and safety questions some schools may ponder, it must seem like an impossibility. So pleased then that Tullygally School in Craigavon, Northern Ireland, has made this possible. Well done to teacher John O’Hagan and all those involved in this fantastic project.

Multi disciplined
A nice multi-tool almost sneaks into the N+1 category in our opinion.😁 The Brompton tool… the Blackburn tool wallet. Take a look at the selection reviewed. All for roadside repairs. https://buff.ly/3HDcszh I tend to keep a multi-tool in my pocket, every waking hour of every day. Is that sad? Or am I just mega-prepared for everything that life can throw at you?!! #tooltuesdays #bikerepairs #homebikemechanics #cycling #everydaycycling
