Cyclists pollute more than cars, claims Swiss economist
“Today everything is climate. Many want to replace the car with public transport and bicycles. They believe that the latter burden society less and are climate-friendly.

“I don’t think the wand was stopping them”: Scary HGV close pass video sparks cycling infra debate; “Beautiful” or “bloody useless”? New bike stand divides opinion + more on the live blog“I don’t think the wand was stopping them” Scary HGV close pass video sparks debate on safe bike infrastructure, dangerous driving, and “discourteous” cycling cycling Bit misleading isn’t it?
