Really hope someone puts Fiji on charge before the end of the game. It's giving me anxiety. #FijvEng #NationsChampionship

Just helped free a guy trapped in his wheelchair on this section of butchered Edinburgh infrastructure. Wheel stuck on overgrown hedge and fencing. No signage. An Edinburgh travel failure to unite active travel groups @spokes.org.uk @livingstreetsedi.bsky.social @stephenjenkinson.bsky.social

Alex@alexh666.bsky.social · 2mo agojust saw a video of a guy running after a bus he missed and then another guy passing by in a cargo bike told him to hop in the front basket and the they passed the bus and the cyclist dropped the dude at the next stop 😭😭😭 www.instagram.com/reel/DXzdVAX...
CCWEL closed/coned at junction of Melville Street and Queensferry Road for four-way traffic lights. No direction for cyclists I could see but I presume join carriageway? #FlagshipCycleRoute #EdTravCyc
Planned a trip across 3 cities in northern Spain eager to use their bike hire schemes, only to find all 3 actively block visitors from using them 😭 Sad, hot walk to the hotel chosen for location of bike paths.
Local bus stop in Bilbao currently providing a strong indication of the odds for Ulster Vs Montpellier. #ChallengeCup #BilbaoFinals #MonvUls
Really like Voi as a fun and flexible way to travel Edinburgh. But I hope they scale the fleet quickly. Getting a Voi from the outskirts of the zone to the centre is frustrating in the morning, and getting one back from centre to the outskirts is a pain in the evening. Can't be unique? #EdTravCyc
"The transformation of the larval Reform candidate to its mature adult form is one of nature's most remarkable journeys. The pale larvae begin to change colour almost immediately after its first exposure to democracy, evolving into a cynical, tangerine lump over a bitter period of growth."
The true judgment of whether Bluesky has made it as a platform is how much time I manage to spend looking at #DogsAtPollingStations today.
Roseburn Park and Murrayfield in bloom and desperately waiting for the sun to break through.
This is now just a biking to find blossoms in Edinburgh account. Today's beautiful weather at Starbank Park.
The chimera blossom of Edinburgh's Harrison Park adds a bit of multicoloured mystery to the year's blossom season.
The night before Scotland Vs England seemed a perfect time to watch Laoch. An excellent and emotional choice. If you want an amazing story of personal and sporting resilience and the rise of women's rugby, I can't recommend it highly enough. youtu.be/qr_cKcXZNGM?...

Happy election manifesto week in Scotland! A particular nod of the hat to the Tories' battle against net zero, which bravely protects vulnerable communities (cows) from the "widespread culling of farm animals to cut emissions" inherent (implicit/assumed) in all net zero murder policies #WarOnCows

The best thing about Edinburgh by bike is knowing where to find the hard-earned rewards 🍦
Delighted to see Water of Leith path between Saughton Park and Murrayfield open again following Scottish Water works. Saves an annoying detour over the bridge! #EdTravCyc
