Part 2 of my profile of @pippa_york

What would public space look like if it were not dominated by cars?

Proud of my piece on women in cycling and trans issues in sport - with thanks to @sullivansa1
And before anybody bangs on about the 'science', try looking at the issue through a human rights lens for a change
The charmingly chilly roads of the Arctic. The hellishly
hostile route up Mont Caro. Heart-breaking stories from the COVID frontline. Female champions who beat male champions. Female champions who became male champions. And magical BMX memories.

ALT The cover of Conquista - The Cycling Quarterly, issue 28 features the white Conquista logo on a black background. The page is filled with an illustration of a man riding a bike on a velodrome track. He is holding a magazine in his left hand while sipping from a coffee cup in his right hand. As he reads the magazine he pedals with his left leg while steering the handlebars with his right foot.

UPS is expanding its cargo-bike delivery program in Hamburg and Cologne, Germany.
This is really important for cities.

If you hold the Transport brief for a Council beginning with B, chances are you've heard from me directly by now.
If you're a councillor or transport officer anywhere in the country (beginning with B, or any other letter!), I'd love to hear your views.
I’m researching the role social media plays in delivering cycling policy/infrastructure. Are you a local authority officer or councillor with experience in this area? If so, you can take part in my research by clicking this link (full details inside):

Given Twitter is looking less and less stable, if it goes my next step is approaching people one to one. If you could take the time (5min) to do my survey, I'd appreciate it.

You know you have a mainstream cycling culture when this how your police engages with children on bicycles!

A worrying trend in cycling is emerging: this winter, four WorldTour teams have demanded to see an article I've written before publication.
Worth remembering now more than ever just how important press freedom and independence is.
Teams must stop making these requests.
