December’s GoBike ride – here’s the route

and here’s the link to the route: https://www.plotaroute.com/route/3187075?units=km It was a superb tour of the north of the city. In true Andy style, though, there were some narrow paths in parks – we went through Springburn, Ruchill and Victoria parks, but the five of us who turned up enjoyed it all.

Cycling Fallacies website refreshed

It is great to see this fantastic website back up and running – https://www.cyclingfallacies.org/.

Don’t be fooled by common myths about cycling – use the explanations on the site to help spread the truth!

The site has been created in order to collate all the facts and arguments about cycling for transport. While there are a great many blogs, articles and videos explaining these concepts, they can often be difficult to keep track of and link to.

If you’re a cycle campaigner, you’ll probably have come up against the same old arguments time and time again. There are many myths about cycling, which are widespread and often believed, without any basis in fact. So the site hopes to make it easier for cycle campaigners to win the argument by providing a quick response to these myths.

This site has been made possible due to the hard work of volunteers, and with support from the Cycling Embassy of Great Britain.
