To be fair, this isn't just Scotland, it's UK wide. Most local authorities recognise the contribution of cycling to pollution, congestion, global warming and health, on paper at least. The government, if it can be called that, has the Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, so ably described by CUK as little investment and even less strategy. Health and environmental experts recognise cycling as massively beneficial. But none of these are converted to action on the ground.
There is something fundamentally wrong with our society when everyone recognises the value of cycling, but nothing is done. I've stood twice as a Green Party candidate in my local elections, with the specific aim of getting the council to implement the policies it has had for the past twenty years, and I'll be standing again next time, and hopefully winning this time. The only way things are going to change is if we get the current dinosaurs out and elect some cyclists.
damn, tough crowd, some might even say dour
yeah, loads...
no need to be sore though, I'm practically scotch myself, I always celebrate wee Jimmy Krankie's birthday with a tin of shortbread and a couple of bottles of buckfast
Believe it or not, there's a strong cycle culture in Scotland and I'm sure most people who read this website would like to see it recognised by the powers that (partially) govern Scotland. In this respect, the trolling is not only unoriginal, but unhelpful.
Has anybody been on the relatively new M74? The road was built to help ease congestion around Glasgow, but only underlines the need to back up those who cycle in this city.
Deep fried patter & drug references... how original
Don't forget deep fried Mars bars and and deep fried scotch pies.........
simple - just relocate all the places selling deep fried heroin so they're only accessible by foot or bike
State of this cunt...
