Japan's parliament has passed legislation to introduce a "blue ticket" fine system under which bicycle riders pay penalties for minor traffic violations to escape criminal punishment. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/05/17/japan/crime-legal/bill-passed-to-introduce-fines-for-cyclists/ #japan #crimelegal #cycling #trafficaccidents #japanesepolice #upperhouse

It took many years and many professional bike fits for their extremely valuable #bikeFit tips to finally sink in. :blobfox0_0:

It took me following a hunch over several months to get to the general area where my saddle and handlebars should be for their tips to finally make sense and complete the picture in my mind. (My saddle was way too low for a long time because my first bike fitter was trying to work with my horrible technique early on, which caused me to tear a quad in one leg. :blobfoxscared: )

Is there a calculator to let people calculate actual cost per mile to drive a given car, accounting for actual purchase price, insurance, gas prices, parking costs, and length of time one has owned car? Trying to see just how much I’m saving with an ebike. @TheWarOnCars @seabikeblog

Thursday:
91 seconds of plank
11 minutes of yoga for runners
20 minutes of HIIT
30 minutes of strength training
24.8 KM of

HITT kicked my butt again this morning. Bike ride was lovely, with the few traffic lights I crossed mostly in my favour.

Contemplating changing my 5-on, 2-off pattern. Thinking I might do 2/1/3/1 or something like that to break up recovery. 🤔🤷🏻

First ride back out last night with a mate who broke his femur coming off on an icy patch while back in January. We kept him in one piece. 😅

Just got back from the Davis Ride of Silence, which was organized by the Davis Bike Collective.

The organizers reached out to relatives of those killed, so at two of the sites, we met friends & family of people killed by drivers while riding their bikes in Davis.

This is the ghost bike for Dr. Marilyn Olmstead and her friends & family were there with us along County Road 100A, next to a farm field.

Got in 19km of to a meeting and back today.

Had a car parked in the bike lane, drive out of it, then back into it seconds before I would have been there.

And forgot about the construction on Scott, so had to deal with traffic.

Ducked under Bayview station, over the Chaudiere bridge, then back over the MacDonald-Cartier bridge., so that section of the ride was pretty nice.

in 2022 91 cyclists were killed in traffic accidents, while every year in average 2.5 people are killed in collisions with cyclists.

So what has Iain Duncan Smith added to the latest criminal justice bill... a specific offence of causing death of a cyclist by wreckless driving?

Nope, an amendment introducing a specific crime of causing death or injury by dangerous cycling.... driven on by (primarily) a single case from 2016.

proportionate? no!

Calbike has a call to action.

CA governor Gavin Newsom has cut $600M from the Active Transportation Program in his draft budget.

This is an interesting article on road.cc about the issues around the #cycling industry and nosediving profits.
It mentions "In very basic terms, pandemic = bike boom, bike boom = brands purchasing more stock to meet demand, pandemic ends and demand drops = less buyers for said stock, less buyers = stock sitting on shelves unsold. In short, not good."
But I would add this would not be an issue if... 1/2

Today’s opening of the Conejo Canyons bridge in Hill Canyon is excellent news for hikers, cyclists, and public safety. Hikers and cyclists will no longer have to share the single-lane road with trucks entering/leaving the Hill Canyon wastewater treatment plant.

And because the bridge connects Hill Canyon with the Western Plateau in Newbury Park, first responders and public works employees no longer will have to travel out of town via the Camarillo grade to reach either end of the Conejo Canyons.

We are incredibly fortunate to live in such a beautiful area. Hope you get out and enjoy it!

Es ist für mich immer wieder ein Anziehungspunkt: das Storchennest bei Niederwil, hoch über dem Strassenkreisel.

Bei meinen sporadischen Besuchen während des Winters, beim Storchennest über dem Strassenkreisel in Niederwil, konnte ich nicht sicher sein, dass beide Störche hier geblieben sind. Wenn überhaupt, traf ich jeweils nur einen im Horst an. Deshalb führte meine heutige Fahrt wieder e ...
